Managing family finances can feel overwhelming - especially when you’ve been conditioned to believe that working more is the only path to financial security. In this episode, Diane sits down with financial coach George to talk about simplifying money management, creating practical financial systems, and building long-term freedom without sacrificing your quality of life.

George shares how he and his wife developed a values-based approach to budgeting, investing, and debt payoff that helps couples work as a team while still allowing for guilt-free personal spending. Together, they discuss the importance of auditing subscriptions, investing early to outpace inflation, and creating a clear financial mission so every dollar has a purpose.
