Mastering Money: How I Start My Day Financially Strong!

Over the past ten years, I have been working on consistency and establishing a morning financial routine that sets me up for success.

Throughout April, I recorded all of the morning routine videos I usually only post to Instagram for YouTube. Here is the entire month!

As a former bank teller, don’t ever deposit cash in an ATM envelope. Person at bank opening those envelopes may take the cash. Deposit through drive thru or go inside. Love your videos

One important aspect is budgeting. Making sure your expenses align with your income can set a strong foundation for financial stability.

For the races, walks, charity events, etc. I have a category labeled "Events". It helps me set a budget for the next year. As to eating out- we heal how we heal and grieve how we grieve- no shame. Sorry for the loss of your mom. No matter how old we are, losing our mothers changes who we are as women. Thanks for all that you do for us.

Great video as always. Not all of us use instagram, you do have a large following here on you tube. Wish you would share more on here.

I started your program a few years ago and got really into it, making goals, paying off debt, etc. Then I got laid off and made much less money the following year. It was a huge emotional setback for me, not just a financial setback. I felt like what hope I was gaining was suddenly lost.

I'm so glad you're posting to YouTube again, it is motivating to work with what I have and get real about my new financial reality. Your method is the best for any budget, because it is my money my way. Thank you for posting!

It's neat to see how we plan diligently, yet life happens.

[tinaturull]

Thank you for your video, I do not go on Instagram. So helpful, please share more on youtube. I buy your budget book and I still haven't started because I am a senior and still have issues. Thank you for sharing your baby, he is so cute.

[AnnCashes]

[allanahhatcher]

This video was great! I thoroughly enjoyed watching your financial routine and being able to see how if you create a financial routine every day how much quicker it can be and how just that little bit of time each day to update etc means that you don't fall behind on tracking and makes your budgeting less overwhelming.

[ceciliaruns]

Loved this! It was so motivating to spend a bit of time each day to update the budget! I’m an athlete and I have a sinking fund specifically for race entry fees, so I would have used money from my sinking fund! If I were you I would use the health and wellness category! ❤ Good luck!

[BeaVaneX]

I loved this compilation!!! Thank you for putting it together.

[lisawilliams]

I love that you did this! I've watched them on Instagram but it is great to see a whole month! Question, I must have missed a video on the new BBP but man I'm so excited for the smaller version. I have been a boxed set girlie since finding you and was so bummed to not have them anymore. Can't wait!

[badlands]

HIS HANDS ARE SO PRECIOUS AND HE LOOKS LIKE A VERY HAPPY AND SO CONTENT BABY! THANKS FOR SHOWING US YOUR PRECIOUS LITTLE ANGEL! Blessings....

[ReccaJacq]

I thoroughly enjoy your videos! And I really appreciate the fact that your 100 envelope challenge is actually going to be affordable and not super expensive.

[marthamarlin]

I loved this video. Thank you so much for sharing it. I liked seeing how you handle your finances every day. People say they do but it was very enlightening to actually see it. I love using cash envelopes but I’m anxious to see how you like using the cashless method.

[KaysBudgetandPlans]

Love when you discussed the concepts of moving money vs spending it (around 15:00 ish) . I personally struggle with this concept which is why I went cashless entirely. Cash also involves saving receipts or remembering to write the spending down immediately and both habits have been impossible to form for me. I've learned that ADHD can really negatively impact your financial behaviors and I'm starting to reflect on that and learn what does and doesn't work for me by revisiting creators that inspire me. Thank you for continuing to share so openly.
