Welcome to The No-Fuss Budget, our latest YouTube series centering on the realities of budgeting when you *don’t* make six figures or come from substantial generational wealth. In each episode, we’re focusing on some of the most common money issues we see among the TFD audience: emotional spending and overconsumption, living paycheck to paycheck, the debt payoff struggle, and much more!

In our first episode, our wonderful guest Stephanie shares her budget as a recovering emotional spender: how she's changing her consumption habits, learning that you can't spend money to make yourself into a different person, and how she factors $30,000 of consumer debt payoff into her budget. Her hard-won outlook on rethinking her relationship with money and building a good life is a must-listen!
