Five Ways to Make Managing Your Money Easier Simplify and Enjoy Podcast

Today we’ll go over five steps on how to reset and achieve your big family money goals for before the year wraps up!
How to Reset and Reach Your Family and Financial Goals It’s the first full week of September. How are things going of you this year so far?
Looking back at 2023 so far, it’s honestly been a year of ups and downs for us.
Summer break for example had us taking two family trips around North Carolina which we certainly needed. Unfortunately my mom was in the hospital in the first part of July so our focus was on her for a few weeks. Thankfully she’s doing better now.
Honestly, though, I cut back on projects and some work I had planned here on the site and podcast. I also feel a bit weird saying this on the podcast, but yeah, I wasn’t as diligent as I usually am with finances.
Here’s the thing though – for the most part we’re still on track for our goals.
How?
As we have tackled our family and financial goals like saving down debt, saving for emergencies, and investing, we’ve developed habits and a financial system that has made it easier to stay on our goals. Cause I really do believe that there are times you need to give your family attention. If you have your financial system up, you can feel less stressed and better able to handle life’s curveballs.
I’d like to show you some ways you can manage your goals if you ‘re in a similar situation, where your focus hasn’t been on your finance because of family obligations.
The good news? You still have sixteen full weeks before this year is over. There is still plenty of time for you to make progress on your family and financial goals!
