  • 9 Ways I Live Below My Means (Even With a Decent Income)
    Mar 19 2026

    Building wealth isn’t just about how much you earn, it’s about how you choose to live.

    In this episode, I’m breaking down the 9 ways I intentionally keep my lifestyle in check:

    1. I don’t buy designer clothes or bags
    2. My kids don’t wear designer brands either
    3. My car is paid off (and I’m not rushing to upgrade)
    4. We rent for now — and won’t buy at the top of our affordability when we do buy the house
    5. I keep my gym contract basic
    6. I keep my lifestyle simple even when income increases
    7. I know how to say NO!
    8. I keep my debit orders low
    9. I use my business strategically

    These aren’t sacrifices, they’re CHOICES that create freedom, flexibility, and long-term wealth for me and my family Because just because you can afford it… doesn’t mean you should!

    Listen to the full episode to understand the mindset behind each one.

    Because before we change our finances, we have to understand our money story.
