#043: Budgeting Vs. Tracking with Joe Saul-Sehy
Do you find budgeting and tracking your expenses to be extremely overwhelming? Maybe you even have all the fancy apps and tools to keep track of your spending, but somehow you still have trouble creating and sticking to a budget that actually works for you.
Guess what? You don't have to be perfect. In fact, my guest today will teach you to embrace your imperfection, owning who you are and what you like to spend money on. And BONUS - you can actually make budgeting fun!
This is the heartbeat behind Joe Saul-Sehy's message to you today. To borrow a phrase from FastCompany magazine, Joe gave us "the perfect blend of humor and actionable advice" to help those of us who feel like we've failed one too many times when it comes to budgeting, saving, and paying off debt. And it all starts with knowing the difference between budgeting versus tracking.

#045: Inspiring Better Conversations About Money with Julien & Kiersten Saunders
Do you avoid conversations about money with family, friends, loved ones... maybe even yourself?
Much of our actions with money today stem from our past beliefs and experiences. Learning to voice those beliefs and experiences about money is the first step in creating real change in your financial life.
My guests today are Julien and Kiersten Saunders, the co-founders of Rich and Regular, Hosts & Producers of Money on the Table, and authors of the forthcoming book, Cashing Out. After paying off over $200,000 in debt while making the transition from corporate employee to full-time entrepreneur, they have made it their mission to inspire better conversations about money. The conversation that we ended up having was nothing close to what I thought it was going to be, and I think that it's really going to open your eyes and your heart to looking at your past with money differently.
