Budget Besties, it’s time to break up with guess-and-hope budgeting. 👋🏼💸 If you’re still manually moving money around every payday, chances are you’re wasting time, energy and accidentally overspending.

In this episode, Shana and Vanessa walk you through the five key budget automations they personally use—and that have helped thousands of clients finally take control of their money without overthinking it every. single. week.

We’re talkin’:

1. Automating Your Bills – One dedicated account. All your bills. Set it and forget it.

2. Automating Your Investments – Treat your future like a non-negotiable bill.

3. Automating Your Savings Buckets – Christmas? Car maintenance? That summer trip? It’s all covered.

4. Automating Gas + Groceries – Never panic at the pump or stretch pantry meals 'til payday again.

5. Automating Your Personal Spending – A little joy-money that’s just for you—no guilt, no questions asked.

We break down exactly why this system works and how to set it up in a way that takes you out of the equation (a.k.a. fewer mistakes, more peace of mind).

✨ Whether you're brand new to budgeting or ready to upgrade your old system, this episode will have you rethinking how you handle your money—in the best way.
