Review of my guide on starting small when it comes to saving and investing.

• Start by tracking your income, expenses, debt, and savings.

• Move from fear and guilt to empowerment; focus on progress, not perfection.

• Begin with as little as $5/week; use high-yield savings accounts and round-up apps.

• Adopt zero-based budgeting, cash-stuffing, or the 70/20/10 rule to manage unpredictable expenses.

• Cut unnecessary expenses, renegotiate bills, and set financial boundaries.

• Invest small amounts consistently; use ETFs and platforms like Fidelity or Vanguard.

• Explore side hustles, freelancing, and gig work that align with your skills.

• Use snowball or avalanche methods; communicate with creditors for support.

• Set weekly goals, affirm your progress, and define what financial peace looks like for you.

• Start where you are, not where you think you should be.

Have you ever felt like you're carrying the emotional weight of a relationship while the other person sets the pace, the tone, and the terms?

Let’s talk about what happens when love feels unbalanced, and how to take back your power with self-love, emotional clarity, and control over your own peace.

In this episode:

• I unpack the emotional power dynamics behind that viral quote
• Talk about how to recognize when you're over-giving
• And offer real strategies to love and lead yourself when someone else is steering the relationship

Loving someone should never mean losing yourself.
