In this episode, I speak with Sarah Elledge about budgeting: the power of zero-based budgeting, how to align your budget with your values, and how to be confident in your spending plan. Sarah is a solopreneur, budget expert, Certified YNAB Coach, course creator, and mama to a now full-grown 18-year-old.
Budgeting is simply the habits of how you manage your money. Everyone has a budget style - even if you don't think you do. We form deeply rooted beliefs about money as early as age 5 which can affect how we make decisions all the way through our adulthood. Until you stop and assess your relationship with money and start to heal any lingering money trauma, you might always feel friction in your money decisions.
You Need A Budget is a proven method to get proactive, flexible, and an empowering system to manage your money. YNAB’s Four Rules are our method and secret sauce. It requires you to be forward-looking and intentional about every dollar; it requires you to be aware, but in return you’ll be in total control of your finances, and in so doing, your life.
With YNAB, we’re focused on what is in front of you, what you still have the ability to influence. Before you spend a single dollar, we’ll help you think through your priorities—immediate, short-term, and long-term—and allocate your money accordingly. Better yet, we will teach you how to use your budget to make spending decisions and how easy it is to adjust your budget throughout the month, because life happens.
