Eco-friendly tip: understanding & improving your financial health
That does NOT mean becoming greedy. Unfortunately, We Live In A Society that currently requires us to have money to survive. I am resentful of that fact. I bring up this topic for the same reason self-care is brought up: that we can only give what we are able to give. That we have to take care of ourselves so we are able to take care of each other.
And no, this is not a “bootstraps” post. Different people have different situations. “Bootstrap” mentalities are naïve at best, mean at worst (both equally ignorant to reality).
To me understanding your financial health is seeing where you are, what your needs are, and what your goals are. Doing the work to improve your financial health is determining the work you can do yourself vs what help you need. Remember: there is no shame in needing help!
I still have a long while to go before I hit my goals - which are to be able to sustain myself (stress free) and frequently give to the local community, mutual aid, etc. One of my favorite resources is @thefinancialdiet and their “20 point checklist for getting good with money” video on YouTube.
Anyway, nerd out time: I made some money worksheets that I think are adorable and I love them 🥰 I have more types that I need to make, like a bill tracker. If you would like these PDFs, DM me your email address ☺️ I print these out and keep them in a binder (pen to paper is better for me)
