Why Most Budgets Fail (and What to Do Instead) | Ep 02

If you’ve ever thought, “I should be better with money by now,” this episode is for you.

In this solo episode, I share the mindset shift that changed everything — for me and for the women I work with. It's the reason I created the MeMoney™ Method, and it's why traditional budgeting advice often fails, even when you're doing everything "right."

We’ll talk about:

• Why budgeting advice often leaves women out of the equation
• The emotional blocks that keep us stuck — even when we know what to do
• The five Money Personality types (and how they shape your behavior)
• How to stop putting yourself last in your own financial plan

This is more than math. This is mindset. And it’s time your budget included you.

You’re not behind. You’re not broken. You’ve just never been taught a way that actually works for your life.

Ask yourself:

• Am I in my own budget?
• Is there space for what matters to me?
• Have I been surviving with spreadsheets, when what I really need is permission?

This episode is your invitation to shift that — and to start fresh.
