What Jen + Jill have to say:

Know what you OWN and what you OWE - sometimes making ends meet is as simple as moving some things around in your budget.
Drain the emotion from your decisions- stop impulsive and treat yo self type spending, stop saying “i deserve this” to things that cost money and start saying it to financial security and prosperity.
Take clear eyed and bold action- don’t sit and wallow, don’t play the victim - this may require more intentionality than ever before and we may be talking about doing more than cutting out your AM latte!
Build a support team- you can’t do this on your own.
