Budgets fail for the same reason crash diets do: they’re restrictive, complicated, and don’t address the real problem.

Why most budgets fail:

  • Too restrictive: “No fun money” never works.
  • Too complicated: If your spreadsheet takes 12 tabs, it’s doomed.
  • Too emotionless: Money is emotional, and ignoring that sets you up to quit.

 

What to do instead: The Anti-Budget Method

At PowHERhouse, we teach women to automate savings and bills first. Whatever’s left is guilt-free spending. It’s simple, flexible, and works in real life.

 

Client Story: Lauren tried five apps and quit them all. With the Anti-Budget, she automated $300/month into savings without feeling restricted. Six months later, she had $1,800 saved — the first savings she’d ever kept.
