    The Money Routine That Will Change Your Finances

    #004 - Eduek breaks down the simple money routine that helped her pay off $47,000 of debt, invest $30,000, and build a fully funded emergency fund in under three years. The key is not doing the most, it’s building an efficient money system once, then maintaining it with a routine that can take as little as five minutes.   Key Takeaways Why a consistent money routine is a non-negotiable in 2026 How to build your money system one time (income, expenses, categories) Why you should budget using take-home pay and plan for your lowest month How to categorize spending with the 5S framework (Security, Safety, Survival, Satisfaction, Stewardship or Solvency) How to balance your budget to zero so every dollar has a job Paycheck split and bank account split to avoid overdraft and overspending A simple routine: budget before payday, transfer on payday, track mid-month, adjust as needed   Resources Mentioned Surplus Stack System and  Surplus Stack Society   Connect Instagram: @twosidesofadime, @surplusstacksociety Email: hello@twosidesofadime.com, contact@surplusstacksociety.com

    How I Plan to Make $300,000 in 2026

    #003 - Eduek is sharing her full strategy to make $300,000 in 2026. She breaks down how she chose the number by reverse engineering her three-year goals, why 2026 is her rebuild year, and what it is actually going to take to hit that income goal without burning out. You’ll hear how she is setting a non-negotiable get out of bed fee, tightening up her income streams, tying each stream to a specific financial goal, and why she is adding a nine-to-five for stability while she builds stronger cash reserves.   Key Points Why she chose $300,000 and how it connects to her three-year plan How to reverse engineer income based on goals, not current salary The get out of bed fee and why her baseline is $3,000 Why she put all her offers under one umbrella: Surplus Stack Society The five income streams she is focusing on plus one new stream in 2026 Why she is going back to a nine to five and why it is strategic, not a setback How she is pacing her focus by quarter to avoid burnout   Income Streams Mentioned Surplus Stack Society (reinvesting into the business, goal of 300 members in 2026) Brand partnerships (goal $36K, stretch $45K, tied to rebuilding her emergency fund) Speaking engagements (goal $25K, stretch $30K, tied to investing) Licensing her courses to companies (goal $75K by selling three packages) Affiliate income (goal $2.5K as play money) Nine to five (for predictable income, personal bills, debt, and savings)   Resources Mentioned Goal Execution Book (how she tracks targets, action steps, and quarterly focus) Richest Year Challenge (goal mapping and building a realistic 12-month plan with 90-day priorities)   Let’s Stay Connected If this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend who keeps starting over every Monday.

    You Don’t Need Another Reset. You Need to Rebuild Trust in Yourself

    #002 - January is full of resets, challenges, and “go hard or go home” energy. But if you struggle to stick to your goals, another reset is the last thing you need. In this episode, Eduek breaks down why extreme challenges like 75 Hard often backfire, how constantly starting over erodes self-trust, and what actually builds discipline long term. Instead of restarting your goals every Monday or every new month, you’ll learn how to pick up where you left off, rebuild confidence in yourself, and create momentum that actually lasts. This episode is your permission to stop starting from scratch and start building consistency the right way.   Key Takeaways You don’t need another reset. You need to rebuild trust in yourself. Discipline comes from consistency over time, not short bursts of intensity. If a goal isn’t meaningful to you, it won’t stick. Let it go. One focused action beats ten scattered ones every time. Start where you are. Start in the middle. Do not start from scratch.   Resources Mentioned The Richest Year Challenge A 3-day challenge designed to help you map out your financial goals for the year and break them into realistic 90-day actions, with built-in accountability and community support. You can join at any time and watch the replays inside the private community. If goal setting, discipline, or consistency has been a struggle for you, the Richest Year Challenge was created to help you build clarity, focus, and momentum without burnout.

    This Is How You’ll Hit Every Single Goal You Have for 2026

    #001 - If you want 2026 to be the year your goals actually happen, this episode is for you. In this episode, I’m breaking down why vision boards alone are not enough and introducing a far more effective approach: the Goal Execution Book. This is a simple, plain notebook that helps you move from intention to execution by walking your goals through every stage instead of just dreaming about the end result. Vision boards focus more on aesthetics and show you the final product. A Goal Execution Book helps you build out your goal from scratch. I explain why most people fall off their goals by February and how focusing on execution, consistency, and accessibility keeps your goals top of mind all year long. You’ll learn how to create your own Goal Execution Book using five clear phases.   Phase 1: Mapping We start by grounding your goals in reality. Learn from the past year Choose your word of the year and a supporting action word Categorize your goals Write 1 to 3 realistic goals per category    Phase 2: Mindset This is where resistance gets addressed before it derails you. Write your why Identify obstacles that could stop you Write down fears tied to each goal Actively talk yourself out of those fears   Phase 3: Execution This phase turns ideas into action. Identify tools and resources you need Create action steps based on obstacles and fears Assign a timeline to each action step by month   Phase 4: Visualization Visualization becomes practical and grounded. Find evidence that your goal is possible using your own life and those in your immediate circle Define what success actually feels like Set milestones and rewards Paste pictures that reflect the in between, not just the finish line Use photos from your camera roll Create a visual board of action steps, not just outcomes Break your goals into a 12-week year Focus on execution one quarter at a time   Phase 5: Seal With a Prayer This is about alignment and intention. Pray over your fears Pray over your action steps Create index cards or a prayer board tied to your goals   Bonus: Use It as a Living Journal Your Goal Execution Book is not static; make sure to interact with it at least once a week. Track challenges Write down wins Capture lessons and notes Add pictures as progress happens Revisit it at least once a week   Reflection Question If you had to abandon every other goal, what is the one non-negotiable goal you would hold on to for 2026? To learn how to execute your financial goals for 2026 and end the year with your richest bank balance yet, join the Richest Year Challenge.   Join the Surplus Stack Society for year-round accountability.
