Brianna, for what it’s worth, I think you are the queen of UA-cam! All of your videos are so aesthetic, so calming, so inspiring, so informative. They’re just my favorite to watch! Applauding you always! Happy new year to you and your family!
I really appreciate the transparency of your income and how you are managing your finances! It makes everything feel realistic and gives a great example. I love watching your videos 🖤 Hope the start to your new year is wonderful!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the budgeting part. I hope it is helpful to those who might need a little insight. I’m always curious about people’s budgeting! Hope you have a great start to 2023 ❤️
You adding your budgeting into your videos really has inspired me to make 2023 the year my husband and I really take control of our finances. We’ve always been pretty happy go lucky with our money, but we went from both working pretty good paying jobs when we had no kids to much lower incomes after having the kids and now we’re not in the best shape financially. I’ve found a budget spreadsheet that I really like and we’ve decided to sit down once or twice a week and really keep a tighter grasp on ourselves
I’m so glad you enjoyed that portion of the video! Kids change everything, right?😅😅 budgeting has really helped us and I know it will for you too! Proud of you, girl ❤️❤️❤️
I read self development books in the morning, then my fiction books at night/any other moments of calm I may find in my day. It helps to start my day with peace, quiet, a candle, and inspiring reading. Leaves me feeling very motivated for the rest of my day! Wishing you an amazing new year! Thank you for the continual inspiring content.
That’s a great idea! I like to read both at the same time, but didn’t know how to split it. I love starting my day with reading too! Thanks for being here. Happy new year!❤️
I really appreciate your openness on how much you both bring in and spend because it's very relatable, the "struggle " we all have in life . Thank you ☺️
Hey! Brianna I was eagerly waiting for this vlog and I love your vlogs so so much you are my inspiration and I wish you reach 40K Subscribers very very soon!💞✨☺️
Wow thank you for the budget part that was awesome and so transparent. Loved this. Please keep this part of your videos so motivating. Do you put in what u spent at end of the month or do you just do the budget part you showed
I really need to start budgeting and tracking expenses for my finace and I. I’ve really wanted to get into it but it also feels overwhelming to figure out… do you just keep track of your expenses as you go?
Thank you for taking time in making these very productive, inspiring very useful videos!!! They’re all great videos. Always looking forward to them!!!❤
Really A good video !!! What better way to start really start the new year! Thanks so much, I feel no one ever talks about budgeting and I could really use all that info especially when trying to save money!!! Thanks A lot and Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!! I'll make sure to subscribe ! 😀
This is really relaxing and peaceful to watch Briana, it is very realistic as well so it serves as an inspiration for a lot of people too! Self care should always be part of our plans, we gotta take care of it as well along with other things we do! Thank you so much for sharing and wishing you best this new year!❤
I love to organize and condense after Christmas too - especially the kids toys/clothes! You are fright - it is so satisfying haha! We typically take down our Christmas stuff between Christmas and New Years - just depending on our work schedules and making Sure the kids are occupied with TV a play date or something haha! Love the budget tracker - and I agree , it’s important to reflect back on previous years for that month - it helps set the realistic expectations of where you need to fluctuate the budget!
Yes, it feels so good to organize and de clutter. Taking down Christmas is almost harder than putting it up, so I get needing to find time😅 thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed the tracker ❤️
Question: But do you have any debts? (Car, Student Loans, etc.) Just curious since you usually see those on a budget listed out. Also - do you have a separate savings account where you keep the rollover? Just curious since this is one of my 2023 resolutions!!
Great question! Yes, we have a savings account for the rollover. Our cars our paid off. I do have student loans, but payments have been deferred since the pandemic. Currently waiting to see if I will receive loan forgiveness.
Can you show us more of videos of what you do for meals for the family/during the week vs. weekends? Our grocery bill is roughly $800 and we’re only a family of 3. Would love to see dinner and breakfast ideas!!
Honestly, my main focus is on dinners. Breakfasts and lunches are kept simple, and nothing really changes from a week day to a weekend. I use a lot of coupons that I get sent in the mail or I use digital coupons on my grocery store app to help. I don’t buy anything more than what we need and what we will use. Grocery prices are young right now 😭
I love your honesty and transparency of how you manage your finances!! It makes it really helpful to understand how to use the excel spreadsheet! I love watching your videos! Thank you!
Hi! I found myself curious to see where your budget ends up at the end of the month, compared against you budget at the beginning of the month. Also, how you split up your savings at the end of the month. Have you ever thought about adding it to your videos? I like budgeting and putting my savings into high APY accounts to earn more money in interest every month. 😃
I’m making budgeting a big goal for me this year! This video helps so much! Where do you pay for pet things like their food? Do you include it in your food section or misc?
I love your videos so much! They give me so much inspiration ❤ And thank you for your transparency with money, I don’t think it is talked about enough. You should check out expense tracking apps like Personal Capital…it has made a huge difference in the ease of expense tracking/budgeting for our family ☺️ Definitely recommend! Keep the videos coming, they are so appreciated and I’m always so excited when you put a new one up. Cheers to 2023!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoy the videos. Also, thank you for suggesting the app. I’ll look into it! Cheers to the new year! Thank you for being here ❤️
Love your videos! I’ve been feeling so motivated to get organizing done too! Budgeting wise, where do you pull all the “extras” from? Like getting your nails done, getting new clothes for yourself, random Target runs etc. Does that usually come out of the projected savings portion? Not being critical, just genuinely curious! Would love to see a video that includes an end of the month evaluation of it all. Love and appreciate the transparency!
That’s a great question! If I get paid more than my projected income, like a cookie order I wasn’t expecting or a sub job I wasn’t expecting than I will keep that for myself get my nails done or buy clothes, etc. I hope that makes sense! I see it as a little extra to treat myself ☺️
I love to organize, I love organizing everything in my life :) Diffuser looks so cool! Love your hair & nails! You look totally amazing in this! ❤ I really enjoyed the video!! Happy New Year 🥂
Happy New Year!!! I pray this year brings u health and more happiness! This was another great video. I loved the budgeting portion. I know u mentioned more self care books but I recently read such a great book. A Thousand Boy Kisses. Such a beautiful story. I think u would enjoy.
Very interesting video Brianna ! You are so organise ! I also dyed my white hair😉 and cleaning my house today it was a mess😩 I love your orange pull over H&M ?? What’s your plans for New Year Eve saturday ? I will be in my mom’s house and you ? I wish you an Happy New Year Brianna 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Thank you for watching! I bet a clean house feels so nice. The orange pullover is from ASOS years ago. It’s one of my favorites. We will be staying in for NYE. I hope you enjoy your mom’s house ❤️❤️❤️
Happy new year, Brianna❤ because of you I started reading and trying more recipes. I always look forward to your videos and It really shows how much work you put in to them. I hope this new year brings you everything you are aspiring for. 😊
I love to hear that! I hope you’ve been enjoying reading and cooking. Thank you for watching and for noticing the behind the scenes of each video ❤️ love ya
Yeah I am going to start my tracking what I spend and do much better not spending alot we have been eating at home not that much eating out just a little bit. We haven't took the Christmas tree down yet waiting until after January 3rd then take it down. Have a great day 😊💞
i love christmas but my girlfriends and i all kind of freaked out about taking down decor pretty much the second presents were opened. i don't know what it was about this year, but i wanted it clean and bare as fast as possible. so strange! i bought my husband some brightroom kitchen organizers for a new years present ! (highly recommend a new year family present- i love doing that so you all get intentional about one thing that's useful. it makes a resolution all the more doable)
I LOVE that idea, Roxy! I never thought about a new year gift. I need to get my husband a beard trimming catcher wink 😉 the past few years I’ve taken down decor rather quickly compared to previous years, so I feel you!
@@Brianna_Traynor LOL!!! my husband needs one too! i was wiping up yesterday and there are hairs near the handles- are you kidding me!? yesss a group gift is fun - it can be as simple as a new game and a scoreboard. it also teaches kids young that presents can be time spent with friends and family.
Happy [almost] new year! What are some ways you are resetting for 2023? ✨ let me know!
Brianna, for what it’s worth, I think you are the queen of UA-cam! All of your videos are so aesthetic, so calming, so inspiring, so informative. They’re just my favorite to watch! Applauding you always! Happy new year to you and your family!

At the end of the month I plug everything we spent in to see the difference of whether we saved or overspent. I’m glad you enjoyed that part!
I hope you don’t quit YT! You’re one of my favorite UA-camrs to watch- always look forward to your videos! (:
Aw thank you! I’m still here and so happy you enjoy my videos ❤️
I really need to start budgeting and tracking expenses for my finace and I. I’ve really wanted to get into it but it also feels overwhelming to figure out… do you just keep track of your expenses as you go?
Yes, I write everything down as we go and plug it into excel at end of month!

The monthly budgeting has me inspired !! Love your videos, thank you for sharing 😊

Do you use a paid version of excel? I’m very interested in using excel to budget!
It came with the Microsoft word bundle I purchased 🤷🏻♀️ I didn’t think it was an extra feature! I hope you can find it or something similar
Why was I so pumped about your plant progress 😂 #thisis33. Great video as always! I feel motivated to reset for 2023!
Haha right?? It’s so exciting. Thank you for watching! ❤️ 🌱

Have you thought about updating the photos of the kids in the playroom? They are so young! Or do you like the throwback photos?
I honestly haven’t even thought about it because I see the photos of often and am used to them. I will probably update them one day!

Oh that’s awesome! I’m going to start that one next. I love how it’s laid out. Thank you for watching and happy new year!
Love your videos! Thank you for sharing your budget tips and being so honest! What expense tracker are you using?
I made my own on Canva and just printed it out! Super easy. Thank you for watching ❤️
I got nervous when the next clip showed you wearing a hat 🤣🤣 but you are a woman of many talents! Hair looked great.
Hahah I thought about that! It was all okay 😂😂😂 thank you!
Great video! You inspired me to make a budget as well. Thank you and Happy New Year!
Oh yay! I’m so glad to hear it. Happy New Year!
i love your purse! do you mind sharing where it’s from? (i may have missed it if you mentioned it)… happy new year! 🎉
I recently got it at Target! It’s nice and spacious, but still not too big. Happy New Year!❤️

Where is your outfit from when you’re cleaning ? So cute!
Abercrombie! A few years ago! Thank you
what cleaning supplies/rags do you use? Do you reuse your rags?
I have these reusable kitchen cloths from Trader Joe’s that act as paper towels and I also have microfiber towels from The Grove!
Where is your tan waffle lounge set from!? 😍
Abercrombie a few years ago! It’s one of my faves!
