Finding it hard to save money? Here’s a hack: Every time someone asks for money, just say no and transfer that amount to your HYSA.

While they’re asking, you’re stacking. 🤭😂

Did you know medical debt is one of the hardest debts to escape—also one of the easiest to get?

Whether you have insurance or not, 1 ER visit or unexpected surgery can leave you drowning in bills.

But BIG changes are coming in March 2025 that could erase $49B in medical debt.

What day do you stop saying Happy New Year to people?!

Some folks are starting over around the 12th, so it’s MLK Day for me! 🤭😂

We love canceled plans—especially when they can help you crush your savings goals! 🤭

Here’s how: If you budgeted for an event or outing that gets canceled, take that money and move it to a sinking fund or your general HYSA.

Parents — before you buy that mug for your children’s teacher or favorite staff member as a Christmas gift … use that cash to get them a gift card instead.

If you got to a big box store like Costco, you can get multiple ones within 1 swipe.

If you’re going to use gift cards as a Christmas gift, be strategic.

My grocery store is giving back 2x fuel perks!
Most stores/resturants are giving you back small amount gift cards for buying a set amount (I mean, a gift for you).
Target has 10% off gift cards that ends today.

I know we were focused on using your FSA and HSA during Sephora sale, but —- using your savings account on things like a Oura Ring during Black Friday is another clutch.

Especially before your FSA funds expire. 👀🛒

Happy Thanksgiving Jive Turkeys! 🦃 🤍🥂

Hosting doesn’t mean you have to do it all. If feeding everyone isn’t in the budget, let those showing up with Tupperware chip in on the meal. Whether they bring a dish, dessert, or the drinks, hosting should be about everyone coming together—not one person breaking the bank to make it happen.

Happy Thanksgiving Eve, yall! Let us ease into rest and rounds of food over the next couple of days!

Also, holding gratitude is more than dealing with attitudes that don’t serve you!

Got my Thanksgiving posts designed, scheduled.

Email going out tomorrow to newsletter list.

No Black Friday promotions [planned to, but we pivot]

I’m legit resting on Thanksgiving and continuing my restructuring through the weekend.

My nervous system is smiling.

Someone said ain’t no way these kids need a whole week off for 1 dinner… 🤨😂😂😂

I’m really tempted to get another cup of coffee, but dunno if my nervous system will go for it☕️

We’re already deep into Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and It’s A Sale shopping season—but take a moment to look back at what you’ve bought over the past few weeks (not including groceries and utilities, of course 🤭).

Screaming!! Bot it out 😂

When I’m scrolling social media, I see it all the time—people feeling stuck with their money. (You thought I was going to say buck, huh? 😉)
Questions like:
- “How do I save when I’m barely making it?”
- “Where do I even start with investing?”
- “How do I open an IRA or HYSA?”
Let’s talk about it.

The monetization portion is when people will find out this is really just another tech company. (Sources for this speculation are in the post)
Bluesky will be launching a subscription service by the end of the year. There are no details yet on how many tiers. Premium tiers will likely include higher-resolution pics, more/longer video uploads, and profile/page customization aesthetics. Longer term, there's a monetization plan for creators.

What are you buying yourself for Christmas?!

I’m still thinking on it myself — but she deserves a gift for the tough moments, standing on business moments, the crashouts… EVERYTHING!

I’ve been doing better w/ how self-care looks and factoring it in my budget.

Make sure you’re on your own list!

Thought unclaimed money was just for that old utility bill? Nope. Think again.

Millions of kids have unclaimed money sitting in 529 college savings accounts—and it’s not just pocket change. Families could be missing out on serious cash that could fund college, trade school, or even a Roth IRA.
