Budget besties, whew — grab your tissues and your coffee. In this powerful episode, we sit down with Mackenzie, a wife, mama of two, and full-time working powerhouse navigating a major life pivot after her husband lost his job. Spoiler: this conversation is about so much more than money.
From a job loss to reworking their budget and leaning into a new side hustle, Mackenzie walks us through the real life stuff — the stress, the faith, and the tough decisions that so many of us face but don’t always talk about.
We dig into:
💸 What to do when your income suddenly drops
🏡 Why selling your house might not be the answer
🧮 How to actually figure out how long your savings can last
❤️ The emotional weight of being the breadwinner... and choosing not to be anymore
💡 Why pursuing purpose can still be part of your financial plan
🙌 And the reminder we all need: THIS is why we budget — so we’re prepared when life hits
Mackenzie’s vulnerability, grit, and heart are what this community is all about. If you’ve ever felt like you're holding everything together with duct tape and coffee, this one’s for you.
Today, we’re bringing you another round of real-life stories and real-life lessons straight from our private coaching sessions. Because if our clients are dealing with it… chances are you are too.
Our goal? To help you avoid the same mistakes, feel less alone, and walk away with practical wins you can use today in your budget.
