• Ep 472: Why You Don’t Need A Budget To Be Good With Money

  Do you really need a budget to manage your money? Or is it time to delete the apps, toss the spreadsheets, and rethink everything? Today, we’re sitting down with Dana Miranda, author of the bold new book You Don’t Need a Budget: Stop Worrying About Debt, Spend Without Shame, and Manage Money With Ease. Together, she and Jean dig into why traditional “budget culture” can be just as toxic as diet culture and a more intuitive, values-based approach we can use instead.
