In a world where women's empowerment is gaining increasing attention, one of the most crucial aspects we often overlook is financial independence.

The ability for a women to take complete control of her finances not only enhances her own well-being but knowledge is power.
HerNaturally presents tips with tangible results to help women claim control of their finances and stride confidently towards financial independence

1. Budgeting Createa budget outlining your monthly income and expenses. Write it down, create in Excel, anything for you to see all the incomings and outgoings in a single place. Allocate funds for essentials such as bills, food, and savings and allow yourself some discretionary spending. Stick to your budget diligently to avoid overspending and if you are, you haven’t budgeted properly.

2. Debt Consolidation If you have multiple debts across credit cards, store cards with varying interest rates, consider consolidating them into a single loan with a lower interest rate. This can simplify your payments and potentially save you money on interest over time helping you become debt-free sooner – do it now.

3. Building an Emergency Fund Life is unpredictable, and having an emergency fund can provide a safety net during challenging times. Aim to save enough to cover three to six months' worth of living expenses. Start small and gradually increase your savings until you reach your target and whatever you do – don’t touch it! When you reach the target, continue to save. The new fund is no longer the emergency fund but the holiday fund!‍

4. Reviewing Subscriptions Monthly subscriptions for services like streaming platforms, gym memberships, or magazine subscriptions and that box of food that gets delivered and never eaten can add up over time. Assess your subscriptions regularly and eliminate those you no longer use or need. Redirect the saved funds towards more meaningful expenses or savings. You owe it to yourself.

5. Celebrating Progress: Celebrate milestones along your financial journey, no matter how small they may seem. Recognizing your achievements boosts confidence and reinforces positive financial habits motivating you to continue striving towards greater financial empowerment.
