Hello Ladies ❣️ Our first book club meeting was last Sunday & for those of you who weren't able to attend, I wanted to do a quick recap of what we read & our discussion so you can consider yourself caught up and join in this upcoming week 😊 CHAPTER 1 Why Women Avoid Money — and What It's Really Costing Us Alison opens with her own story, a CNN financial correspondent who let her husband handle every big money decision. On paper, that makes no sense yet in real life, It's incredibly common. She introduces the idea that avoidance is fear. Fear of making the wrong move, fear of not knowing enough, fear rooted in stories we've been told (or not told) about women and money. Key idea: The first step is admitting that avoidance has a cost, and deciding you're done paying it. CHAPTER 2 Where the F is My Money Going? This is where Alison gets practical. She introduces her "No BS Budget Worksheet" and actually asks you to do it with pen and paper (no app shortcuts). What makes this chapter stand out is how she acknowledges that not everyone has the same income, expenses, or personality. She offers three budgeting styles so you can find something that fits your life and style. -a percentage-based approach -the envelope method and - reverse budgeting — (as a financial planner, this one is my personal favorite!) Key idea: There's no one-size-fits-all budget. The best system is the one you'll actually use and it starts with radical honesty about where your money is already going (probably a lot of dumb shit tbh :) ) CHAPTER 3 Your Money Story: Where It Came From and Why It Still Runs the Show This is the chapter that hit our community the hardest. Alison digs into the idea of money memories- the experiences, environments, and beliefs we absorbed growing up that now drive our financial behavior as adults. Whether your household was "money is tight," "we don't talk about that," or "spend it before it's gone" .....those scripts are still running & whether you realize it or not. And here's what's wild: you can be financially educated, have a great income, and still be completely held back by a belief you formed at age seven.
