MyBudgetCoach and Zero Based Budgeting - Episode 160 (Classic Episode)

In today's classic episode, I sit down with Zach Whelchel to talk about why budgeting can feel so hard and how to make it way simpler. Zach shares how a zero based budget works, why giving every dollar a job can lower your stress, and how to build a plan that still includes fun, goals, and real life surprises. We also talk about what it’s like to get help from a budget coach, how accountability can keep you on track, and small steps you can take today if you’re tired of feeling behind on money.
