Budgeting Can Be Tough
But the behavior part of budgeting is another story.
Sticking to a budget is hard work.
No matter how good our intentions, sometimes our circumstances eclipse our systems. We put strategies and systems into place, only to have them trumped by our bad money habits.
If you struggle and stress about money, I have good news: Budgeting can be so much simpler and less stressful with the Better Budget Guide & Workbook.
No two families are exactly the same.
No two budgets should be exactly the same, either.

You will get all the tools you need to finally take control of your finances so that you can provide for your family without stress, arguments or guilt trips.

Hi there! I’m Mara – and I poured my heart into writing the Better Budget Guide for you. This is the book I wish I had read ten years ago, when I first started getting real about my finances.
FULL TRANSPARENCY: I’m not a financial planner. I’m not a CPA. I’m just a wife and a mom who always believed that money was powerful and magical.
It had the power to magically slip through my fingers while I wasn’t even paying attention.
Then one day, I woke up and said ENOUGH. Enough worry, enough stress, enough self-doubt. I was ready to face my money demon head-on.
By using the lessons I share in the Better Budget Guide, my husband and I went from spending $1,000 a month more than we were earning, to eliminating $35,000 of consumer debt and saving $20,000 for our emergency fund. Now, every month, we live within our means, without stress or guilt.
Turns out my money demon wasn’t as invincible as I thought. And it doesn’t have to be for you, either.
