What do you do when you need to add a new expense but your budget already feels maxed out? Recently, I did just that.
In this episode, I walk through the steps I took to make it work:
- Figuring out the true cost (monthly and yearly)
- Testing it in my budget and year plan
- Deciding what categories I was—and wasn’t—willing to cut
- Adjusting amounts until everything fit
If you’ve ever tried to fit a new cost into your budget—whether that’s kids’ activities, a car payment, or higher rent—this process will help you approach it with clarity instead of stress.
Episodes mentioned:
66// What is a Zero-Balance Budget? Plus 11 reasons it will work for you.
