Your Learning Journey

Our 12-week program is carefully structured to help you progress from understanding your financial stress triggers to developing lasting coping strategies

Weeks 1-3

Understanding Financial Stress

We start by exploring how financial worry affects your body and mind. You'll learn to identify your personal stress triggers and begin practicing simple breathing techniques that actually work when bills pile up.

Weeks 4-6

Practical Budget Building

No complicated spreadsheets here. We'll help you create a realistic budget using apps and methods that fit your lifestyle. Learn to track expenses without obsessing and find money you didn't know you had.

Weeks 7-9

Dealing with Financial Setbacks

Life happens. Car repairs, medical bills, job changes — we'll prepare you with strategies to handle unexpected expenses without falling into panic mode. Build your emotional resilience alongside your emergency fund.

Weeks 10-12

Building Your Support System

Connect with others who understand your journey. Learn how to communicate about money with family and friends, and develop long-term habits that keep financial stress manageable.
