Feel overwhelmed by your finances? Does the word "budget" make you want to hide? You're not alone. In this foundational episode of The Wealth Reset Pod, host Ronda introduces the first and most powerful step to financial clarity: The Survival Budget.

This isn't about restriction or complicated spreadsheets. This is about awareness. Ronda breaks down her simple, compassionate two-step system that will finally show you exactly where your money is going—without the guilt. Learn how to:

  • Reframe your mindset from punishment to power by becoming a "financial scientist."

  • Track your spending using simple, low-effort methods that actually work in real life.

  • Categorize your expenses into just three simple buckets to eliminate overwhelm.

  • Calculate your key number—the diagnosis that tells you exactly where you stand (and it's not as scary as you think!).

If you're ready to stop feeling lost and start building a real plan, this episode is your reset button. We're moving from financial stress to financial strategy, one dollar at a time.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
