The Wise Up With Your Money Podcast is for families who want more peace, clarity, and confidence with their money.
Because let’s be honest—most of us know how to earn a paycheck, but not how to actually manage it in a way that reflects what's important to you.
I’m Becky, your financial coach, and I’m here to help you align your money with your values, build simple, practical systems, and give yourself grace along the way.
WISE UP with me to stop feeling stressed and start using your money with intention.
#85: Relearning Your Money Boundaries After Life Changes
When You Don't Know Your Limits Anymore
I grew up an athlete. Two-a-days, sometimes three-a-days, and I knew my body inside and out. Then, in my twenties, I landed in the hospital with rhabdo… not once, but twice. Suddenly, I didn't know my limits anymore, and I was scared.
If you've been through a big life change (a new baby, a job or career shift, becoming a stay-at-home mom, getting married), your money might feel the same way. The old "feel" for what you can spend just doesn't work anymore, and it's easy to slip into avoidance, overspending, or guilt without realizing it.
In this episode, I share my story and walk you through how to relearn your money boundaries with grace:
Why life transitions throw off your spending (even when you used to have it together)
The warning signs your money might be sending you
The avoid-panic-overspend cycle, and how to break it
4 steps to relearn your boundaries for this season
A simple 3-question action step to do with your spouse this week
If you're in a season where you just don't know your limits anymore, you're not failing. You're relearning.

#84: Stop Tracking Your Money. Start Making Moves.
Are you tracking your money, checking your bank account, and knowing exactly where your money went, but still not making progress?
In this episode, I'll share a simple story about doing a puzzle with my mom and how it made me realize we can do the same thing with our money: organize, track, and move things around without actually moving forward.
Tracking is a tool, not the goal.
Instead of constantly asking, “Where did my money go?” I challenge you to ask, “Where does my money need to go?”
Learn how to stop simply managing your money and start giving it direction today, so you can make real progress toward what matters most.

#83: Why It Feels Like There's Always Something
Have you ever felt like the moment you start making progress with your money, another expense pops up?
The car needs repairs. A school fee is due. Your child gets invited to a birthday party. Suddenly, you're reaching for the credit card again and wondering, "Why does this keep happening?" Yup, I get it!
In this episode, I share why these moments may not mean you're bad with money at all. In fact, you may simply have an underdeveloped planning muscle. Say WHAT?
Instead of looking backward at where your money went, what if you started looking ahead at what's coming next?
In this episode, you'll learn:
Why predictable expenses often feel like emergencies.
The difference between reacting to your money and planning for it.
How to strengthen your "planning muscle" without creating a complicated budget.
A simple exercise you can do this week to feel more confident and in control of your finances.
If you're tired of feeling caught off guard and want a simple system that helps you make steady progress, this episode is for you.
Because the goal isn't perfection. It's becoming a little stronger with your money than you were last week.
