So far in the Best Life Blueprint Challenge, you have set resolutions, manifested your dream life, and optimized your health. But if there’s one classic New Year’s resolution that’s constantly elusive, it has to do with money. Every year, we promise ourselves that we’ll spend less and save more—and every year, it seems like that goal gets harder to achieve. Luckily, all of the resources you need to finally get your finances in control this year are at your fingertips with this week of the Best Life Blueprint. For week four, we’re tapping into “rich girl” energy with plenty of finance tips, podcast episodes, and exercises to get you motivated to feel in control of your money.
Maybe your “rich girl” energy in 2025 looks like saving up for a down payment on a house, maybe it looks like starting your investing journey, or maybe it means simply learning how to actually stick to a budget. No matter your goal, there are so many things you can do to propel yourself to financial success. Without further ado, here is week four of The Everygirl’s Best Life Blueprint: tapping into “rich girl” energy.
