The Ice Storm That Reminded Me Why We Budget for "Emergencies" 🧊

Pursuing true North Hey friend, So... Tennessee got hit with an ice storm over the weekend. We were all excited expecting some beautiful snow before the ice hit. Instead? We got about a half inch of snow and LOADS of ice. Like, everything-is-a-skating-rink levels of ice. Most of my road lost power. My husband and some of the guys worked to clear parts of the road so we could eventually leave. We brought hot food to neighbors to help them stay warm, along with whatever else they needed. And...

The One Question That Changes Everything 🤔

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Quick question for you: Have you ever caught yourself thinking, "It'll never get any better" or "It's impossible to get ahead"? Maybe it's about money. Maybe it's about parenting. Maybe it's your career or just life in general. I get it. I've been there. And honestly? This might be one of the most damaging mindsets you can be in. But here's the good news: You can shift it. Today. Right now. The Question That Changes Everything When you catch yourself thinking...

What Nobody Tells You About Getting Out of Debt 💭

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Can we talk about something real for a minute? When my family decided to tackle our $120,000+ in debt, I thought I knew what I was getting into. I'd read the books, listened to the podcasts, made the spreadsheets. I thought: "Okay, we'll make a budget, cut some expenses, throw every extra dollar at debt, and boom—we'll be free." But here's the thing nobody tells you: Getting out of debt is WAY harder—and WAY different—than anyone admits. Today I want to share...

This Client Win Made Me Cry Happy Tears 💙

Pursuing true North Hey friend, I have to tell you—last week's newsletter got SO many responses, and I'm still reading through all of them!

But this week, I want to talk about something that has me absolutely BUZZING with excitement. The Updates That Made Me Cheer From My Seat Last week, I received two client...

Fresh starts, scary goals, and checking in on you 💛

Pursuing true North Hey friend, Happy New Year! Can you feel it? That fresh-start energy that comes with turning the calendar page? I love this time of year—not because I believe in magic transformations on January 1st, but because there's something powerful about choosing to see things differently. Here's what I'm thinking about as we step into this new year: What if this is the year we stop playing small with our money AND our lives? Let's talk money goals first. I know, I know—you might be...

For When Christmas Feels Heavy (You're Not Alone) 🎄

And you're not failing. I see you. I've BEEN you. I Remember That Feeling I've told you about our years drowning in debt. Christmas during those years?

Reflection, Goals, and What Really Matters ✨🎂

Pursuing true North Hey friend, So... Monday was my birthday! 🎉 And you know what happens when you have a birthday in December? You automatically start doing that thing where you reflect on the entire year. It's like a built-in life audit that comes with a cake. 😂 Actually, I had a candle stuck in a homemade brownie, and my kids sang happy birthday to me. It was perfect. And it's become my tradition—every year around my birthday, I look backward and forward. It's my annual reset, my check-in...

Your 2025 Money Wins Deserve a Standing Ovation 👏

Pursuing true North Hey there, Can we talk about something we're all guilty of? We're really good at remembering our financial mistakes - that impulse purchase, the month we blew the budget, the credit card balance that's still hanging around. But when it comes to our wins? We tend to brush right past them. Not this year. Here's what I learned on our journey to financial freedom: One thing that kept my family going - especially when the wins felt small and the finish line seemed forever away...

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?
