    Ep 472: Why You Don’t Need A Budget To Be Good With Money
    2025/04/23
    Do you really need a budget to manage your money? Or is it time to delete the apps, toss the spreadsheets, and rethink everything? Today, we’re sitting down with Dana Miranda, author of the bold new book You Don’t Need a Budget: Stop Worrying About Debt, Spend Without Shame, and Manage Money With Ease. Together, she and Jean dig into why traditional “budget culture” can be just as toxic as diet culture and a more intuitive, values-based approach we can use instead.

Whether you're just getting started investing or reassessing your strategy later in life, Jenny and Jean break down the decisions that matter most—and remind us that successful investing is more about time in the market than picking the perfect stocks.

Where should we start?” [7:30] “I'm a retiree, and I’d like to start pulling money on a monthly basis. Which account should I pull from first?” [11:30] “I make $150,000 a year and put $1,000 into my 401k every month. If I want to retire in 15 years, what else should I be investing in?” Looking for more financial confidence? 🚀 FinanceFixx – Our 4-week or 8-week coaching program to get your finances on track! 📈 InvestingFixx – A club for women ready to grow their wealth Have a question for us?
