74 | How Ellie Got Out Of The Paycheck To Paycheck Cycle As A Six Figure Earner

On today’s episode, I chat with my client, Ellie. I love sharing client stories and relatable examples that show what financial coaching is all about. Ellie’s situation is relatable to every 6-figure earner that struggles with managing their finances.  Despite several significant raises and cementing herself as a 6-figure earner, Ellie could not escape the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle. Like many other high-income earners, she thought making more money automatically meant she would have more money. But in order to get control of her finances, Ellie and I needed to create a strategy that aligned her money and personal goals. Listen in as Ellie shares how a different approach to budgeting has helped her gain more security with her finances. She went from spending impulsively on material items to purposely planning for future expenses, confidently paying down debt, and consistently contributing over $500 a month to her emergency fund. I hope you get inspired by Ellie’s newfound financial freedom and gain a proper understanding of how financial coaching can change your life.  Listen to this episode as Ellie answers questions about her experience… [00:02:48] When you were thinking about one-on-one coaching, what did you know that you wanted or needed from this experience?
