It seems the news and social media headlines have become very disheartening through 2022. Personal debt delinquencies are on the rise, consumer bankruptcy activity is expected to increase in 2023, and COVID supports have stopped for the most part, with some people required to pay back amounts they received in error. In this bleak economic environment with high inflation and interest rates, remaining hopeful for good things to come is essential. So, in this episode, I am going to be sharing what you can do to find hope through financial fitness.
Listen in as we go over the importance of monitoring your news consumption and being more intentional with the media you are reading, watching, or listening to. You will learn the benefit of knowing your financial situation, how to make a realistic plan for your finances, and why it is a great practice to include gratitude in your daily routine.
“It is important to stay abreast of news developments and trends, but it doesn’t need to be a 24-hour consumption. Get the facts from sources you trust and then stop consuming the info until your next update.” – Tracey Bissett
