Saturday is Your Last Day for 50% Off (Don't Miss This!) 💙 ⏰

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Okay, real talk for a second. I know this is called a "Black Friday sale," but can I be honest? I've never been a big fan of the pressure to buy things the weekend after Thanksgiving. Mostly because I'm still in my stretchy pants enjoying time with my family. 😂 Which is why I decided to run this discount all the way through this Saturday, December 6th. I wanted to give you time to actually enjoy your Thanksgiving without feeling rushed or pressured. But now?...

Thankful for You (+ A Black Friday Gift!) 🦃💙

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Happy Thanksgiving week! I have to be honest—I'm sitting here feeling incredibly grateful, and I just had to share it with you. First, can I give a HUGE shoutout to my friend and assistant who has been helping me figure out this whole email automation thing? We've had some kinks—like things going out too early and both of us staring at the screen like "wait, what just happened?"—but we're figuring it out together, and I'm so thankful for her patience and...

6 Weeks Left—Let’s Finish Strong 💪

Pursuing true North Hey friend, I know it’s mid-November. The holidays are sneaking up, the to-do list is growing, and your bank account might be whispering, “Let’s just start fresh in January.” But here’s the truth: we still have six whole weeks left. Six weeks is enough time to turn things around. Enough to walk into 2026 proud instead of stressed. Enough to actually enjoy the holidays without dreading that January credit-card statement. So let’s do this—let’s finish the year strong. 💪 🌟...

The Battle Nobody Talks About (Happy Veterans Day Week!) 🇺🇸

Pursuing true North Hey friend, So it's Veterans Day week, and I've been doing that thing where you get a little reflective and nostalgic. You know what I mean? I've been thinking about my Air Force days—the early mornings, the camaraderie, the structure, the sense of purpose. And honestly? I've been thinking about YOU. Because here's what I realized: Every time someone thanks me for my service, I'm always humbled and grateful for the people who are so thoughtful. I also think about the...

The Gratitude-Money Connection You Didn't Know You Needed 🌻

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Can we talk about something that might sound a little unconventional? What if I told you that one of the most powerful tools in your financial toolkit isn't a budget spreadsheet or investment strategy—it's gratitude? I know, I know. When you're staring at bills or trying to figure out how to stretch your paycheck, "just be grateful" can feel like empty advice. But stick with me here, because the connection between gratitude and your finances is real, practical,...

The Real Price Tag on That Holiday Shopping Cart 🎁

Pursuing true North Hey friend, I get it. The Target holiday aisles are already calling your name, Amazon deals are popping up, and somewhere in your mind, you’re making that mental list of who’s getting what this year. But before you start swiping that credit card (or worse—opening a new store card for that “extra 15% off”), we need to talk about something those cheerful holiday commercials never mention… The real cost of holiday debt. Let’s do some quick math they don’t want you to see: Say...

The Price Tag of "Someday" 🌻

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Can I be real with you for a second? I used to be the queen of "someday." Someday I'll start that business. Someday I'll get my finances in order. Someday I'll take care of myself. Someday I'll chase that dream. But here's what nobody tells you about "someday" – it's actually the most expensive word in your vocabulary. I learned this the hard way. As a mom of five (yes, five!), an Air Force veteran, and someone who's built a life and business from scratch, I...

Before You Tap Your Home Equity... Let's Talk About HELOCs 🏡

Pursuing true North Hey there! With interest rates finally coming down, I've been hearing more and more buzz about HELOCs (Home Equity Lines of Credit). I get it—those rates can look really tempting, especially when you're staring at high-interest credit card debt or trying to consolidate what feels like a million payments into one. But before you sign on the dotted line, I want to have a real conversation with you about something important. Here's the thing about HELOCs that keeps me up at...

How to Beat Impulse Buying (Before It Beats Your Budget 😅)

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Let’s be honest—impulse buying happens to all of us. Whether it’s a cute sweater that somehow jumped into your cart or the “limited-time offer” that felt way too good to pass up, those little splurges can sneak up fast. And while one purchase doesn’t break the budget, a few too many can leave you wondering, “Where did my money go?” The good news? You can absolutely train yourself to pause, pray, and plan—so your money choices line up with your goals (and your...

Why Paying Off Credit Cards Beats Saving First 💳✨

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Let’s talk about a question I hear all the time: “Should I build up savings or pay off my credit cards first?” I get it—saving feels safe. There’s comfort in having money set aside. But here’s the thing: when credit card debt is in the picture, paying it off needs to take the front seat. And here’s why: 1. Credit card interest eats your money alive. Most credit cards carry sky-high interest rates—often 20% or more. That means every dollar sitting in savings...
