MONEY MINDFUL MOMS - Money mindset for moms, Budgeting for beginners, Mom life on a budget, Money making ideas for moms
Feel behind with money? You're in the right place.
Money Mindful Moms is the podcast for moms in their 40s who feel behind financially and are ready to change that.
I'm Krista! A wife, mom of three, and someone currently paying off six figures of debt. I'm not sharing advice from the finish line. I'm in the middle of the journey right alongside you.
Every week, we'll talk about budgeting, paying off debt, saving money, increasing your income, and changing the habits and mindset that keep so many of us feeling stuck. You'll get practical strategies you can actually use, honest conversations, and plenty of encouragement without the guilt or perfectionism.
Whether you're trying to pay off debt, build your savings, stop overspending, or finally feel confident with your money, you're welcome here.

*This podcast is NOT financial advice. It's simply for educational purposes.
Hi friend,
Things have changed and what I would have told you a couple years ago isn't the same as what I will tell you today. You probably need to make more money.
If you have been trying to make your budget work and it's just not working even though you've cut back on a lot of your spending, you probably need to make more money.
In this episode I'm sharing how to figure out if that's the problem and what to do about it.
I don't want you thinking something's wrong with you when it's not a you problem, it's an income problem. I hope this helps you get started.
xo,
<3 Krista

If you're in a stop/start cycle with your money goals, that ends today. Today I break down why starting over isn't the goal, resetting is.
So put down that brand new budgeting template and your new highlighters. I'm going to show you how you don't have to start from scratch every time you fall off track.

Debt Payoff... let's talk about it.
I was making progress towards paying off our debt... and then I wasn't. What happened? And what's the status now?
In today's episode I break it down and share some takeaways from it that I think could help you.
If you're in a season of pausing, just know you're not alone!

Welcome to a NEW season of the Money Mindful Moms Podcast.
I'm calling this our "Money on Purpose" season.
I know many of you are at different places along the journey but I think we can all be on the same page about wanting our money to feel on purpose instead of feeling like our money is bossing us around.
So that's where we're headed this season and I hope you'll come along for the ride.

"But what if my week doesn't go according to plan?"
Honestly, that's pretty much me every week. We shuffle things around, we move money from one budget category to another, and we move on.
Today I'm sharing what our money looked like last week. What went well and what busted the budget.
Because I want you to know it almost never turns out perfectly according to plan, even for someone who's been doing this for a while like me.
