In Episode 5, J and I use Investopedia article "How to Create A Budget With Your Spouse," to discuss lessons we've learned about budgeting. Despite our numerous money conversations, we recognize there was a better way to blend to our finances that may have help with some of the challenges we discussed in Episode 2. For all our listeners, we hope you can laugh at our mistakes and learn a better approach to budgeting as a couple.

Thanks For Listening

In this week's episode, it's that time of the month where J and I are checking in to discuss our efforts to becoming debt free and just exactly how the month of March went for us. We share how unexpected expenses impacted our debt free journey and the struggle to stay on budget especially because apparently we really love food and eating out.

This journey isn't perfect so we hope our candid discussion about how we are working towards our goal will highlight to our listeners that life happens but does not have to discourage you from continuing to remain focused on your long term goals!
