About this listen
Get your finances in order with smart budgeting and money mindfulness.
You Only Live Once is the guide to achieving your best life through smart money moves. Before you even begin making a budget, you need to think about why. Where do you see yourself financially in 10 years? Five years? This time next year? What does money do for you? Once you know your destination, you can begin charting your course. Step-by-step guidance walks you through the budgeting process, and shows you how to plan your financial path to point toward your goals. You'll learn how to prioritize spending, how to save efficiently, and how to take advantage of simple tools you didn't know you had. Next comes the most important part: taking control. You need to really look at how you perceive and use money day-to-day. Chances are, changing a few habits could give you some breathing room and help you reach your goals sooner.
You work hard for your money, yet there never seems to be enough. You don't need to live like a pauper, but you need to be truly aware of just where your money is going, and why. Financial awareness is the key to a financially secure future, and this audiobook unpacks it all to help you get where you want to go.
- Accept past decisions and articulate your financial goals
- Align your lifestyle with your budget
- Explore your relationship with money
- Re-evaluate financial habits and behaviors
You know you need a budget, but you never seem to get around to doing it. Or maybe you did, but you can never seem to stick to it. Smart planning is a major factor in financial security, and it involves just as much introspection as math. You Only Live Once is more than a budgeting guide - it's a guide to revamping your financial behaviors to achieve the life you want.

Story
Do you find yourself worrying about what you’re going to do once you get out of college? 70 percent of college graduates enter the workforce with over $30,000 in debt. But this doesn't have to be you. You don't have to become part of yet another statistic. Being financially independent as you walk off that graduation stage is not a far-fetched fantasy. This is not a reality reserved solely for those who have very wealthy parents. You can achieve financial success even while in school, and can carry this forward with you throughout the rest of your life.

Story
If you grew up with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or selfish parent, you may recall your childhood as a time when your emotional needs were not met or dismissed—and you may have lingering feelings of anger, loneliness, betrayal, and abandonment. As an adult, you have fought hard to establish your own sense of self, and heal the wounds caused by your upbringing. But what about other emotionally immature people (EIP) in your life? As an adult child of an emotionally immature parent (ACEIP), you may be particularly vulnerable to EIPs.

None of us had a perfect childhood; we are all carrying around behaviors that don’t serve us—and may in fact be hurting us. But it doesn’t have to be that way, says licensed marriage and family therapist Vienna Pharaon. Our past might create our patterns, but we can change those patterns for the better...with the right tools. In The Origins of You, Pharaon has unlocked a healing process to help us understand our Family of Origin—the family and framework we grew up within—and examine what worked (and didn’t) in that system.

Story
Investing in your future is easier than you think—discover how and achieve financial security more quickly than you can possibly imagine. Young adults are especially financially vulnerable because they’re just starting out, want a lot of “stuff,” and are not earning the big bucks yet. So, they’re borrowing too much and saving too little (if at all), and they’re in a financial mess. But it doesn’t have to be like that. Instead, imagine a life where you have peace of mind, because your financial affairs are in order, and you’re on the right path to building wealth.

Are you sick and tired of your paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyle? And are you looking for ways to pay off your debt, but it seems almost impossible with all your daily and more unexpected expenses? You have probably heard someone say, "You need to go on a budget," but even the word budget brings up the feeling of a strict diet, anxiety, or an overall sense of restrictiveness. The truth is, most of us have been misled and just haven't budgeted the right way yet.

We are seeing more women in the workforce than ever before, but despite reaching high-paying successful positions, women struggle with growing their wealth and maintaining finances. Most of the time, this struggle stems not from the inability to monitor and budget the money; rather, it originates from the lack of education and recourses that are available for young women or women in general. For some, financial education might be Everest, but even the most dangerous mountains can be conquered with the right information, patience, and resilience.

Have you ever been overwhelmed with the desire to possess something the first time you laid eyes on it? Money should never control you; it should be the other way around. If you control your money, you won’t be living the kind of life reminiscent of a millionaire, but you save yourself from stress, worry, and debt. Financial control means that before you even touch your money, you know where it’s supposed to go, how you’re supposed to spend it, and when you’ll spend it. This is where budget comes in.

It was perfect for me
This book spoke to me. This guy went thru a lot of the things that i am going thru now. I was looking for a good financial book because i was as spending money very mindlessly.

Great book and I would recommend this book to anyone just starting their financial journey.

Very good advice, positive and inspiring!
A really great book on money, mindset and life. Usually I find financial books depressing and anxiety inducing but this book was so positive and really hopeful. It's also realistic and gives you clarity in terms of your money mindset and any bad moves you have historically made. However, this is done without judgement or shaming and the advice is uplifting and solid. Very helpful and I know that I'll be following a lot of what he says here in my own life. Really great stuff! Thanks Justin!
