#149: Making the Mindset Shift from Spender to Saver

The CGS Team

If you’re new to the City Girl Savings community, then I need you to know that while I may be a finance coach and the founder of City Girl Savings, I was an avid spender before City Girl Savings came to be.

I put myself in situations where shifting from a spending mindset to a savings mindset was a necessity.

That means I know a thing or two about being an overspender. I also know a thing or two about being a saver.

So, when it comes to shifting from a spending mindset to a savings mindset, my guidance speaks volumes, because I’ve been there.

In this episode, I’m sharing how to make the shift from spender to saver. If you struggle with spending, you don’t want to miss this episode.

Here’s a glance at this episode:

[02:10] Want to become a saver? Don’t wait until the worst-case scenario to happen before making the change.
[05:13] Over time, it will get easier to say “no” to things that don’t help you get towards your goals. Always remember your why.
[08:34] A trend with Raya’s clients is them not wanting to touch their savings. It’s okay to use savings when things come up – that’s what it’s there for!
