As a single mom living in an 800 sq ft apartment with no furniture and making $30,000 per year, I started The Budget Mom to find community as I worked to get my finances on track.

I was able to pay off $78,000 in debt and buy my dream house in cash using the Budget by Paycheck® Method, my real-life budgeting system that’s designed to serve YOUR unique values. Since then, millions of women all over the world have been able to use the Budget by Paycheck® Method to reach their goals and find financial fulfillment.
