🌟 Hello Friends!
Whew—it is still extremely hot down here in Tennessee, isn’t it? ☀️ But fall is right around the corner, and I love the way this season invites us to embrace change, reset, and prepare for what’s ahead. 🍂
Today, I want to share something close to my heart—the magic that happens when couples set a financial goal together.
A Story to Inspire You
I recently worked with a wonderful couple, for privacy's sake, we will call them the Smiths. Their mission? To finally get on the same page about money.
At first, it wasn’t easy (sound familiar?). Like many couples, they had different spending habits and money personalities. But with a little guidance, a lot of honest conversations, and a pinch of compromise, they created a budget that worked for both of them.
Their first big goal was to pay off $10K of debt—and they crushed it! 🎉 Even better? They’re now well on their way to their next milestone: saving $50K.
The secret wasn’t a perfect spreadsheet. It was teamwork, communication, and the courage to dream together.
What About You?
As we step into September, it’s the perfect time to pause and reflect:
👉 Have you and your spouse set a financial goal for this season?
It could be:
- Paying down debt
- Building up savings
- Planning a future trip
- Or simply being more intentional with spending
Whatever the goal, setting it together not only strengthens your finances—it strengthens your marriage. ❤️
