Are you leaking money in your business without even realizing it?

In this episode of The Side-HustlHER Podcast, I'm joined by my business bestie and financial coach Abigail Sarage of Tailored Financial Solutions. Together, we pull back the curtain on the financial habits that make or break your business in the first year — especially if you're building your brand while still working full-time.

We talk about:

  • The money mindset shifts you must make before launching your business
  • Why separating personal and business finances is non-negotiable
  • How to avoid shiny object syndrome and budget smarter from day one
  • Ways to financially prepare before you go full-time in your business
  • Common money mistakes side hustlers make (and how to fix them)
  • How to use your 9-5 income to fund your business goals strategically

We also dive into the power of stewardship, how to avoid going into debt for your business, and what it really looks like to track your finances as a founder (yes, even if you hate spreadsheets 👀).

Abigail also shares a free downloadable resource that’s helped so many women get clear on their money:

  • “Where is My Money Going?” Budgeting Spreadsheet: https://tfsjourney.com/budget
  • Take her “Do I Need a Financial Coach?” Quiz to find out where you stand: https://www.tfsjourney.com/quiz
