**TOP 2.5% FINANCE AND BUDGETING SUPPORT PODCAST**
*** TOP 100 IN THE UNITED STATES ***
Do you find it hard to save or get out of debt? Are you constantly searching for ways to save money and live on a budget? Do you have big dreams only to be stopped by not sticking to your budget? Are you ready for financial freedom?
Then you, Mama, are in the right place!
In this podcast you will learn what it looks like to budget on one income, how to partner with God in your finances, how to budget in a way that’s easy to stick to and how to cut costs and save money all so you can start building wealth. It is my mission to equip you with the tools that will help you achieve true abundance, where money isn’t a distraction, and you are able to create a Joy filled life regardless of the amount in your account. Where your focus is not on money, but on God and your family and you are living in Joy instead of Fear.
Hey, I’m Molly. A stay at home mom of 2 beautiful baby girls, wife and Daughter of the Lord our God. I am a Podcaster and Budget Coach and I too have tried and failed many budgets. Sticking to them was next to impossible until I finally created a system that doesn’t rely on tracking, the nemesis of sticking to your budget. I have also learned what it means to be frugal instead of cheap, what it feels and looks like when you’ve created financial stability and are no longer living paycheck to paycheck. We’ve paid off loans, bought and renovated houses and are building wealth all on one income.
So Mama,
If you are ready to finally STOP living paycheck to paycheck…
Create a Budget that you can EASILY implement and stick to,
become frugal and cut costs like a champ and
achieve those financial goals so that you too can live in financial peace creating a home filled with joy - this is the podcast for you!
So go grab that stroller, plug in those headphones and let’s get to it!

79. 3 Ways to Live on Less Than You Make and Reach Your Financial Goals Fast.
Hey Mama,
Today’s episode is all about learning how to live beneath your means. Which essentially means learning how to live on less than the number on your paycheck. When you first start managing your money your focus is on the amount that is left in the account. Meaning you buy what’s most important first and then use the leftover as you please.
This is a good starting point in managing your finances, but it’s not going to help you pay off debt or achieve any financial goal you wish to reach in the future. It’s an in the moment paycheck to paycheck style of budgeting, which again is a great starting point to help you start being mindful about your money,
However, your ultimate goal is to be able to save for your future wishes and desires. And how you start doing that is what this episode is all about. This episode will help you set up your budget so that you are living on less than you make, allowing you to pay off debt and start saving for those living big on a budget dreams that you have.
So go grab that stroller, plug in those headphones and Let’s get to it!

75. How the Pursuit of Possessions Is Keeping You From Thriving on One Income.
Today we are going to be talking about the pursuit of possessions and how that is keeping you from living a joyful and abundant life on one income. When you are so hyper focused on things, your priorities start to change in an unhealthy way. Instead of your family and the needs of your family being the focus you are now focused completely on things, on the next new and shiny object that will bring you happiness for about 5 seconds and then you're off looking for the next shiny object.
Life is too short to be hyperfocused on things that will lose your attention in a matter of days, or months. So I want to talk with you today on why this happens and what you can do to overcome it.
So go grab that drink that gets you going in the morning and let's get to it.
