"Where does all our money go?" It's a question many households find themselves asking. Often, it's hard to pinpoint why our finances don't stretch as far as we'd like. From juggling bills and budgets to those impulsive online shopping sprees, managing money as a couple can be a challenge—and sometimes a source of frustration. Enter the No Spend Challenge, a trend gaining momentum this year. Whether it's boycotting specific companies or cutting back on certain expenses, there's a challenge tailored to fit your goals. The idea isn't about deprivation; it's about intentionally reducing spending for the greater good. In this episode, we explore how you and your partner can tackle this popular exercise together. ur website: www.forbetterandworth.com Get Ericka's book, Naked and Unashamed: 10 Money Conversations Every Couple Must Have Check out our local TV spotlight Connect with us: Instagram: @forbetterandworth YouTube: @forbetterandworth Ericka: @erickayoungofficial Chris: @1cbyoung
