I’ve been readying for this for quite a while. Here we go!
For Such a Time as This: My Reset Journey. ~An opportunity to embrace a new path, to do things differently, to commit and change life as you know it.
My Reset Journey
…So, what is IT for you?
After 16 years as a Personal Finance Coach, I still find it interesting to see people’s reaction to the word BUDGET. It feels so restrictive and, actually, almost like punishment I’m told.
