In this Monthly Money Talk with Zen Jenn, I’m joined by financial strategist Jenn Baas to explore why budgeting often feels restrictive for business owners and how to approach it in a way that actually supports growth. This conversation offers a grounded reframe of budgeting as a leadership tool, one that helps you make clearer decisions, reduce financial stress, and build a business that feels steady instead of reactive. 📝 Top 3 Takeaways from the Episode: 1️⃣Why Budgeting Triggers Resistance: Many entrepreneurs associate budgeting with loss of freedom or past financial pressure. Understanding this reaction is the first step to changing your relationship with money. 2️⃣Clarity Creates Calm Leadership: When you have a simple financial plan, you’re less likely to make emotional or rushed decisions. Budgeting can create relief, not rigidity. 3️⃣A Financial Plan Supports Capacity, Not Control: Approached intentionally, budgeting helps you decide what to focus on, what to release, and how to grow without overextending yourself. 🎧 Related Episodes You May Enjoy: Ep 92: Why January Goal-Setting Doesn’t Work (and What to Do Instead) Ep 89: Disordered Growth vs. Growing Pains (Monthly Money Talks) Ep 83: Financial Capacity: The Wealth Shift From Proving to Purposeful Growth  Connect with Jenn Baas:Jenn is an Outsourced CFO with over 15 years of experience helping small businesses bring ease, clarity, and strategic insight to their financial operations.
