August Part 4 - Financial Simplicity

Week Four

Welcome to Part 4 of August’s Focus inside The Simplified Year!

This week, we’re anchoring into Financial Simplicity: the energetic exhale we’ve been working toward all month. I would love to know how you’re feeling so far!

This month has not just been about managing your money. It’s really about reimagining your relationship with it. Even if you only got through a little each week, I hope you feel the difference in the slight lightening of your energetic load.

What if your finances could feel less like a heavy backpack and more like a loyal teammate you actually trust to share the burden?

Let’s see if we can manage that.

This Week’s Focus: Financial Simplicity

You’ve cleared your subscriptions.
You’ve taken a hard look at your daily expenses.
You’ve sorted and shredded your way through mountains of paper (or maybe you’re still mid-piles—no shame).

Now, we move more deeply into the why behind it all. Not just saving money and decluttering your physical space, but creating ease.

This week, ask yourself the very real question: What does financial simplicity actually mean for you?

Why This Matters (Mindset Reset)

Let’s take a poll.

Be honest.

If your answer is money, you’re not alone. In fact, it’s still my top one, too, even after all this work. Even as someone teaching this. I still avoid certain financial tasks like the plague. (I’m working on it. You’re allowed to be in process.)

Here’s the thing most people don’t realize:
Decluttering your finances (yes, even just paperwork or old subscriptions) saves you money. Literally. It’s not just about mindset and clarity (though it is also about that). It’s about actual, tangible dollars.

When you stop avoiding your finances, you stop hemorrhaging cash you didn’t even realize you were losing. And when you simplify your systems, things like cash hemorrhages stop falling through the cracks.

So this week is about clearing the overall financial overwhelm—not just from your accounts, but from your nervous system.

Financial stress doesn’t just live in your wallet. It lives in your bones, your breath, your mind, your sleep...
And the more you simplify, the more you can heal all of these.
