Shownotes Transcript

Everywhere I look, people are talking about how they’ve planned their entire budget for 2025—and I had to find out what that actually looks like! How do you plan a whole year’s worth of spending? How do you account for unexpected expenses? In this episode, I break down:

  • What a yearly spending plan actually is and why some people swear by it.
  • The two smart reasons you might want to try it.
  • How to create one if you’re curious (even if it’s not January).
  • Why I personally hated it, how it made me feel, and why I’m sticking with my month-to-month budgeting approach.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by budgeting or wondered if you need to plan out an entire year in advance, this episode will give you a fresh perspective. Whether you love detailed plans or thrive on flexibility, I’ll help you find a budgeting style that works for you!
