Welcome to another installment of my podcast series, INSIDE 1:1 COACHING, where I’m giving you an inside look on what a private money coaching call is actually like, how money gets talked about behind closed doors, and how much can change in your finances with just 30 minutes of time. These episodes are real 1:1 coaching calls, some with current/past clients and some are people I’ve never coached before (everyone has given permission for these calls to be shared with you here). 1:1 coaching is for creatives, business owners, and those of you whose brains...
info_outlineIf your income changes from month to month, this one’s for you. I’m breaking down the real reason your fluctuating income isn’t the problem, it’s how you organize it.
I’ll walk you through the concept of getting one month ahead on your bills and why it’s the key to feeling grounded, creative, and in control even when your income ebbs and flows. This simple shift changed everything for me.
We’ll also talk about what happens when you get way ahead, like three or six months, and still catch yourself spiraling into scarcity. (Been there. Recently.) I’ll share how I had to coach myself through using my buffer for the first time in ages, and how to remind yourself that safety isn’t about never having a low month.
In this episode, I’ll cover:
- Why “one month ahead” is the magic safety net for creatives
- How to stop freaking out when your income dips
- Why your mindset still matters, even when the math checks out
If you’re ready to feel safe and steady with your money, without needing a 9–5 or a trust fund, this episode will show you exactly where to start.
