In this follow-up to the intentional spending plan episode, Ralph explains how your data becomes one of your most helpful financial “advisors.” You’ll learn how to compare what you planned to spend versus what you actually spent, look for meaningful patterns, and reflect with purpose, not shame. It’s not about fixing everything at once; it’s about asking, “What is this teaching me about my habits?” Tune in and discover how to move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling empowered—one honest review at a time.
