#852: Join us as we sit down with Jesse Mecham – personal finance expert, speaker, business leader, & the Founder of YNAB, a powerful money management tool. Early in his career, while juggling rent, groceries, & college tuition, Jesse created a method to track his finances as a newlywed, building a simple spreadsheet to give every dollar a job. What started as a budgeting tool quickly evolved into a framework for creating a life of intention & purpose, becoming a getaway to the life they truly wanted. In this episode, Jesse breaks down money management as an act of self-care, explores how our perception of money shapes parenting styles – including how to teach children about finances, emphasizes the importance of assigning every dollar a job, & shares insightful tips for making intentional financial choices.
