Have you ever been frustrated with your money? I know when we were first starting out, there were times where I felt like we knew where we wanted to go, but we weren't making the progress we hoped for.
Or maybe you're looking at that big pile of debt and it looks like it's impossible to tackle with the income you have.
Perhaps you'd love to retire early, but it's such a far off goal.

Key Takeaways on How to Save More
Loved chatting with Kim! Before we wrap up though, I want to share some key takeaways I got from our conversation.
- Convenience can be a trap. For Kim, switching over to cash was a bit of hassle, but it made it easier to spend less and stick to the budget.
- Big wins takes big mindset shifts. Before moving forward, Kim had rethink how she handled money and debt.
- Automate your system to follow through. Willpower only goes so far, by setting up a system for their money Kim and Cressel reached their
debt free plans!
