What You'll Actually Learn
A structured 12-week journey designed to transform how you understand and manage your money. Next cohort begins September 2025.
Financial Psychology & Spending Patterns
We start by examining why you spend the way you do. Most people don't have a budget problem—they have a clarity problem. This module helps you identify your spending triggers and patterns without judgment.
The Categorization Framework
Learn the system we've refined over five years of working with Australian households. You'll discover how to create categories that actually reflect your life—not some generic template that doesn't fit your situation.
Tools & Technology Integration
Whether you prefer spreadsheets or apps, we'll show you how to automate tracking without losing the human insight. You'll leave with a system that takes minutes per week to maintain.
Adapting Your System Over Time
Life changes. Your budget should too. The final weeks focus on building flexibility into your categorization approach so it grows with you through career changes, family additions, and unexpected situations.
Learn from People Who've Been There
Our instructors aren't just financial experts—they're people who've struggled with budgeting themselves and found approaches that actually work in messy, complicated real life.
