    Jan 14 2026
    Even the best financial plans need room to breathe. Life changes. Priorities shift. Unexpected things happen. And none of that means you've failed. In today's episode, I walk you through how to normalize detours, reassess your financial foundation, and realign your plan with the season of life you're actually in, not the one you thought you'd be in. I also share personal updates about seeing my book "in the wild" from airport bookstores to international editions and why I'll never stop being grateful for that moment. In this episode, I talk about: Why detours and setbacks don't erase your progress and how to reframe them as recalibrationsHow to reassess your financial foundation when life changes, including your numbers and emotional bandwidthWhen it can make sense to pause aggressive debt payoff or investing and use automation to stay afloatHow core values can guide you as you rebuild your plan without abandoning your long-term commitment + more What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and UncertaintyA book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action stepsUpdated corrections from the original hardcoverExclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter CourseThe Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.Apply to Share Your Journeyer Story, here.Join the Journey to Launch Book Club to dive deeper into financial freedom with guided discussions and resources here!Join The Weekly Newsletter List to get updates, deals & more!Leave Your Journey To Financial Freedom a review!Get The Budget BootcampCheck out my personal website here.Leave me a voicemail– Leave me a question on the Journey To Launch voicemail and have it answered on the podcast!YNAB – Start managing your money and budgeting so that you can reach your financial dreams.
