Happy Friday! I’m excited as we approach a 3-day weekend with family and I’m cooking up some ideas for our extra time together. And let’s not forget that many are also celebrating Valentine’s Day ❤️ Anyone want to drop a photo hint of your weekend plans? I’ll kick it off in the comments 🍿 PS This is also a reminder that banks, post offices, federal buildings and schools will be closed on Monday, February 16, 2026 😎

This morning was a rare occasion, and I decided to make hot chocolate since it’s been months since I’ve had it… Yummerz ☕️ Before I began to record a video for our upcoming Every Penny Challenge, I filled my mug and put it on my desk, then noticed my busy bee theme in full effect. 🐝📒 Ever since I was a child, my nickname from my grandfather was “Busy Bumblebee.” 🥰 I guess I’ve always been a little hyperactive and busy so I’ll take it. 🤓 Now, over 40 years later I think bees are a cute theme, plus I welcome more busy bees to come out to my garden this year.👩🏽‍🌾 🤔 Anywho, this has me curious if anyone wants to share what’s in your cup and do you have a special theme or collectible that you want to share a photo of?? I’m off to buzz around back to work 🐝🐝🐝

And just like that, another week comes to a close…. What’s on your agenda for this final day of the work week? I’m taking the next few days to travel, connect with family and align my focus while clarifying my 2026 goals. And guess what, I already achieved one of my biggest 2026 goals by launching Skool! 💃🏽 The Guided Accounting Solutions community is built to serve Solopreneurs with direction to strengthen their financial systems and organize their money. 💰 Over the next few weeks, I will be rolling out more resources and support. Feel free to inbox me with your questions and suggestions. 🤓I’m here for you!

I’ll start first…. 🙌🏼 Happy Accounting!!

We are three weeks into January, Wow!! Even though the days may seem to pass quickly, it’s not too late to start your financial planning. Last week, I posted a challenge encouraging members to start a finance journal. 📓 We’ll be talking more about this at coffee hour next week, but I’m curious…. Anyone else wanna drop a picture of your favorite journals??🧐 ( it can be from your finance journal or other favorite) As we close out the first month of the year, let’s continue to strive to align our money with our business plans. 💪🏽 If a full financial plan seems overwhelming, lets just focus Q1 and forecast through the end of March. 🙌🏼 I’m here to support you and invite you to check out resources in the Skool “Classroom “🌱
