Thank you so much for this - this video is the warm hug I needed so I can face my bank accounts again. I'm very deep in the guilt and avoidance phase. You talk about money with so much peace and morally neutral language that it reminds the reason to do all of this - to get the things and experiences i really do actually want to have in this life. It's to get the nice things that my habitual spending isn't giving me. Thank you again.
This is a much needed talk I want to hear at this stage of my life, my thought process relating to my finances, I'm debt free except for our mortgage and I'm kind of sad with some anxiety at times knowing that we're not hitting our mortgage balance goal this December, but I have to think that this is the reality, not all goals are meant to be achieved but the upside of this, we're better every single week than the previous week and that to me is a WIN thank you so much for this video Tasha, Love and blessings always ❤️🙏🏽 😘
I love your approach to finances - I remember your talk with Joseph about how he would typically want to save more and you are there to make sure you also get to enjoy life while spending... my husband and I have a similar dynamic and it's been sooooooo good for me to know that it's not A or B, that you can actually build wealth while still budgeting for pleasures. Thanks for the reminder!
Hi thanks for the video. It was really really helpful, its strange I have my long term finances sorted out like my pension, investments and life insurance, but my finances is not good right now
Dang. How perfectly timed is this. My finances got borked because I, last minute, got called back into work. So I have to fork out for child care and for more in gas that I hadn't anticipated. And that just made me go off the rails. I spent to make my emotional side happy.
Great video. I've actually been Journaling and keeping track of what if been spending and things I've been paying on..Definitely had helped me out alot
I Love this video! Thank you Scarlett!! Always reminding us to not beat ourselves up about past money behaviors. Take a breath, look at numbers and take small “easy” baby steps. I just set up auto investments for the first time- i paused the video to do it- so simple! Can’t wait for more videos.
What about disappointment because someone else's choice took advantage of you and you lost a whole lot of money...this has happened a couple times in the last 4 years and it has been very frear inducing and discouraging over the future. For instance we had a plan to save 16k over the last year and a friend got sick and my husband had to take unpaid time to help him. We lost 15k in income, the friend died and we also took care of final arrangements...with no access to the life insurance because there was no listed beneficiary and we arnt blood family when blood family took the $ and so far didn't help or show up for anything. Totally out of our control....
Why didn't you & your husband insist that the sick friend take out a life insurance policy naming you guys? Or at least make sure the friend listed you guys on the existing policy that he did have?
@@Ameameame48 Yes, I have finally seen the video about her name change. But I think to everyone who has been watching for years she will always be Tasha.
@@melaniewilliams9837 I think it may not be accurate to say "everyone" who has been watching will "always" consider her as Tasha. I hope you can learn her new name!

Your feelings are perfectly valid, but I'm glad that these videos help you face your finances with a new perspective. :)
I know this has no connection to the subject matter, but you are extra lovely in this video! I really like you blouse/sweater!
This video was right on time, I was so off track in the summer. 🥴 Now I'm getting myself back on track.
Love the "like driving" course correcting example. I can remember that and hopefully not be so hard on myself all the time.

Awesome content!
“Normalize imperfection” 🤯 This concept seems obvious but tbh it NEVER occurred to me in my 40 years on this 🌏. Crazy right? 🤦🏻♀️
I appreciate this so much. Thank you.
Wow am happy i see this video thats for the advice

That's awesome! Doesn't it make you feel more at ease about your finances? No more mystery expenses or stress about what's going where. 😊
@@OneBigHappyLife yes it really does and I don't have to second guess about where money went to. Feels good to know that my goal was met

That's great! Part of the work is changing your mindset about money and that makes moving forward so much easier.
Easy to follow ideas.
Needed this!
Investing is for long term. What do we do for short term?
❤️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Did you change your name?
Yes she made a video about it

Wait, I thought your name was Tasha?
I said the same thing. I thought I was going crazy. That's Tasha! Who the hell is Scarlett?
