Ep. 3: Connecting the Dots: Dreams and Financial Realities

from Faith & Finances with Mildred Dillon, CPA · host Mildred Dillon CPA

In this episode, I share what hit me hard after I showed my real February numbers on camera using my fixed spending allowance worksheet: my spending told a story I didn’t want to admit—lots of food, almost no transportation, nothing in recreation or shopping, and zero personal care (no memberships, no massages) even though I’ve been in physical pain from tech fatigue and feeling depressed in this remote season. Seeing the numbers motivated me to redirect some food money into personal care and recreation so I can get back in balance and actually live. I also give an update on our Dreamers founding cohort (month one of three), explain how the system makes your numbers visible fast, give a preview of what’s coming in months two and three (business + technology), and ask you: what are you sitting on that we can help you bring into the world?00:00 Faith & Finances Show Intro02:08 Reality Check for a Dreamer06:56 Seeing Your Numbers Changes the Game08:44 Clear Finances Can Shape Direction11:25 What is it you're trying to birth?15:11 You're Getting Close That's Why It's Getting Tough17:18 How to Get to "Next Level"23:21 Most Affordable COO Coaching Out ThereLinks Mentioned:📊 Need Help Getting Clear on The Numbers?Join the Dreamers Cohort: https://dreamers.yourmoneydr.com🔗 Yanada Essex, Therapist & Dreamers Bonus Presenterhttps://www.brighterdaysinc.com/
