My Journey
Hey there, mama
Welcome to Mom With a Plan — a little corner of the internet where I share my journey toward financial freedom, a toxin-free home, and a life that feels intentional.
If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably found yourself juggling motherhood, bills, dreams, and a very cold cup of coffee (let’s be honest 😅). I’ve been there — feeling stretched thin, wanting more for my family, and craving a sense of direction that actually fits my values.
Where It All Started
After becoming a mom, I started to see life differently.
I wanted to be present — not rushing out the door for long shifts, not worrying about how to pay off debt, and not filling our home with things that didn’t support our health.
So, I made a plan.
A plan to slowly pay off debt.
A plan to swap out products for toxin-free options.
A plan to build a life that feels peaceful, not pressured.
This blog is where I’m documenting that journey — the messy middle, the small wins, and all the lessons along the way.
My Financial Freedom Journey
Right now, we’re focused on getting out of debt and finding smarter, simpler ways to manage our finances as a family.
I’m not an expert — just a mom learning and sharing what’s actually working for us.
I’ll be posting about:
- Our monthly budgeting process
- Simple ways we’re saving money
- How we’re paying off debt (without giving up everything fun)
And eventually, how I plan to transition into becoming a full-time stay-at-home mom — financially and emotionally ready.
My Toxin-Free Lifestyle Shift
Around the same time, I started looking at what was in our home.
From cleaning products to skincare, I realized I didn’t want harsh chemicals around my baby or myself. That’s when I started switching to cleaner, more natural products — and I’ll share every swap and favorite brand with you here.
(You’ll see lots of my favorite Amazon finds linked throughout these posts — because yes, you can still shop clean and stay on budget!)
My Non-Negotiable: Matcha Latte + Clarity
I can’t start my day without my Daily Dose Matcha Latte — seriously, it’s been a game-changer. It gives me the energy to wake up early, work on my goals, and still have the patience to chase my little one around.
If you want to try it, you can grab it here with my code for a little discount — it’s mom fuel, trust me. They also have Coffee which I love but I have been on this Matcha Latte obsession for a couple of months now.
What You Can Expect Here
I’ll be sharing:
- Financial updates + debt progress
- Toxin-free swaps + home routines
- Mom life tips that make the day smoother
- A peek into what it really looks like to plan for freedom
This isn’t about perfection — it’s about progress.
If you’re a mom trying to do better for your family and yourself, you’re in the right place.
So grab your coffee, cozy up, and let’s make a plan together.
