Snag Our Simplified Budget System!

One of our single clients came to us with over $263,000 in debt.

💳 $3,000/month in minimum payments

💔 No savings

😩 Business and personal finances completely mixed

👉 But she was ready for change.

In just 7 months, here’s what she accomplished with our coaching and system:

🔥 Her Before:

💸 $263,000 in total debt
💳 $69,000 in non-mortgage debt
🧾 10 different loans (credit cards, RV, HELOC, debt consolidation, etc.)
💰 $3,000/mo in minimum debt payments
💼 Personal + business finances mixed
🚫 No emergency fund, no savings system
📉 Living paycheck to paycheck — despite a $7,500/month income

✅ Her After:

💥 $263K debt reduced
🧨 Minimum payments dropped from $3,000 ➡️ $1,200/month
💵 Saving $2,400/month for sinking funds
💡 Business + personal finances completely separated
🐶 Has dedicated savings for pets, travel, Christmas, home maintenance
🏡 Downsized to a condo, paid for all renovations in cash
📈 Net worth: $684,000
✨ Living on purpose, with peace and margin — not just reacting to her bank balance

💡 What She Did (Step by Step):

✅ Joined coaching for 7 months
🧠 Borrowed our belief until she had her own
🏦 Opened 13 accounts (bills, spending, savings, business, etc.)
🔁 Set up automatic transfers based on paycheck
📞 Called every creditor — reduced interest, deferred a car loan for a month
🔎 Canceled warranties + subscriptions
📉 Shopped all her insurances — saved $2,500/year (then another $5,600 when she moved)
🐄 Made a cow savings bucket 🐮 (we’re obsessed)
📋 Calculated her actual annual life costs
📊 Started using the retirement tab in our budget system
📆 Learned how to properly plan for 3-paycheck months
📱 Got organized — and finally felt in control of every dollar
