It’s no big secret that life doesn’t always go the way we want it to. We’ve got surprises popping out around corners everywhere, and sometimes the plans that we have set out can get derailed. But something that can keep us a little bit more “life ready” and put together is simple — organization!
Needless to say, the same goes for finances. If you’re already elbow deep in spreadsheets and planners, keep powering on. Moreover, if you fall into the other category, where your organizational skills aren’t quite up to what they could be, then you’re in just the right place!
On today’s episode of the His & Her Money Show, we’ve got one of our personal favorites tuning in with us today, and we can’t wait to share the conversation! Alaina, aka The Organized Money on YouTube, is a financial organization guru helping others get their work/life balance, their money, and themselves together to be successful!
To quickly rewind, when Alaina was expecting her first child, she and her husband realized something quick — they needed to get their finances in check! So Alaina took the reins, and through some trial and error, they figured out the budget and financial plan that worked for their family, and Alaina pushed all that wisdom into her platform where she teaches others how to do the same!
The organizational muse starts from within, and Alaina is big on creating healthy money habits to hit your savings goals, set budget boundaries, and so much more. In this episode, she lays out the groundwork for overhauling your personal finances, how she does it, and how to stay inspired, involved, and successful! So get your notepad (and planner!) ready because Alaina is dropping facts, and this is an episode you won’t want to miss!
