If you’d like to be in control of your money, you need a budget. Or call it a spending plan, if that feels better. Whether you have a lot of money or a little money, you want to know where your money is going. My favorite budgeting tool is You Need A Budget (YNAB). YNAB is comprised of a terrific methodology paired with attractive and accessible software. It’s easy to use once you get going, but for many people, the learning curve is steep. I can make it easier for you get past the learning curve by helping you set up your budget and coaching you through the YNAB philosophy and best practices so you can have a budget that will help you do the things you want to do.
Janine is very easy to work with and has infinite patience. We worked together via Zoom and with screen sharing, she was able to help me through my personal learning curve. Within a few sessions, I was able to cut several hundred dollars a month in spending without affecting our quality of life at all. YNAB has given me a complete picture of where my money is going and has removed a lot of the stress of figuring out how to pay future bills. Working with Janine to implement YNAB has been a great experience for me (she made the process fun!) and I feel like I have much better control over our spending.

The first step in working together is to schedule a free Discovery Call. During that 20-minute Zoom, we’ll make sure we’re great fit. Then you can decide whether you’d like to book one or more sessions.
If you decide you’d like to work with me, the next step is to choose how many sessions you’d like to purchase up front. (The more sessions you buy, the less expensive each session is.)
Here’s what I’m offering. Just go to my Paperbell shop to buy the number of sessions you want.
3-pack of 90-minute sessions: $550. This is great for setting up a brand-new budget or a making a Fresh Start on a budget that’s not been working for you. If you’re new to YNAB or you have a YNAB budget that is particularly complicated or tied in a bunch of knots, this might be the package to purchase.
2-pack of 90-minute sessions: $400. For the more experienced YNABer who wants the continuity and accountability of more than one session.
Single 90-minute session: $225. This will allow us to dig into your established budget.
Mini 60-minute session: $150. Bring your prioritized list of questions about your budget and we’ll see how many of them we can answer in an hour.
Micro 30-minute session: $85. If you have a specific question, we can get laser focused on it for a half hour.
You can always buy more sessions after the one(s) you initially purchase are completed.
All clients (past and present) are invited to my Close Out the Month YNAB party on the last day of the month on Zoom. (Stay tuned for details on that.) Everyone present will work on their own budget, making sure it’s squared away when the month turns over. I’ll be there working on my budgets and answering any questions you might have.
I will never be able to thank you enough for changing my life with YNAB!
