Meet the latest addition to Ma’s List – Inspired Budget!
I came across this blog through another finance blog and found it to be a great one. Yes, I realize there are a ton of finance and budgeting blogs out there. You may have seen I have a few on the list already, and I expect I’ll add more. That’s because each quality blogger has a unique story to share. Some stories speak more loudly than others to our experiences, our dreams. I want to help you get to the sites that are loud for you. And I know this is one of them because Allison’s on a mission to help others.
Allison is a real mom, who’s been through the real debt pay-off process, who’s been through the trenches and still is. She’s got some really practical advice to share. She wants to see you win. And this is just her side gig – she has a teaching job. So I particularly admire her effort to pursue this passion in the midst of work and mom life.
You can read Allison’s story on her website, but in a nutshell, she and her husband paid down over $111,000 of debt. Now she loves to help other people, particularly with her passion of budgeting.
Finance is a broad topic. Allison focuses on several key subtopics on her blog: budgeting, paying off debt, and frugal living. She also openly shares her monthly income reports. That’s pretty cool transparency, if you ask me. So I love that openness about her. And she offers a free budgeting course and a paid one as well.
Allison’s got a very open, authentic writing style. She’s approachable and practical. Her topics are interesting, her writing style is clear. And frankly she can be pretty funny. She comes across as a real person, just like you or me – with passion and authenticity.
One Thing Ma Loves: Debt Free Stories. Allison shares interviews with different people who have successfully paid down large amounts of debt. Each story is unique and brings the reader unique inspiration. Great work Allison.
I hope you’ll check out her site!
