But you still get to the end of every paycheck and think — where did it all go?

She will share how she went from feeling like she was spinning her wheels to growing her net worth by nearly $26,000 by paying off $10,000 in credit card debt and growing her savings from the ground up to almost $8,000. We also talk about how coaching changed the money conversations she was having with her husband, why she describes the experience as therapy for your money, and what she would tell anyone who is on the fence about making that investment in themselves.In this episode, you will learn:✅ Why a good income does not automatically equal financial security or direction✅ How an automated money system replaced budgeting and actually stuck & become sustainable✅ What it looks like to build savings, pay off debt, and invest all at the same time✅ How Janely set up investing accounts for her kids starting from scratch✅ How her money conversations with her husband completely evolved over 1:1 money coaching Let's connect:Website: www.buildinggenwealth.comInstagram: @building.gen.wealthLearn more about 1:1 Money Coaching: www.buildinggenwealth.com/moneycoaching
