For years, I was stuck in what I call a "mom wardrobe," rarely buying anything nice for myself. Mom guilt hits hard—even now, with teenagers. But as I step into 2025, I want to approach money differently, with more intention and a lot less guilt.

This isn’t just about achieving more; it’s about aligning with the life I want to build.
