Do you ever feel like budgeting is impossible because your income changes from month to month? If you're self-employed, work on commission, or depend on tips, you're not alone. Living on a variable income can feel like riding a financial roller coaster—one month you're doing fine, and the next, you're wondering how to make ends meet.But the good news is that God's Word offers wisdom that applies even in seasons of financial uncertainty. Proverbs 21:5 reminds us:“The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.”No matter how steady—or unpredictable—your income is, a plan is essential.Build Your Budget on What You Know, Not What You HopeMany people make the mistake of budgeting around their best month. Wise stewardship means basing your plan on your lowest or average month, rather than your highest month.Start by reviewing your income over the past 6 to 12 months. Identify your lowest earning month, and use that as your “bare minimum” budget—what it takes to cover essentials like housing, utilities, groceries, transportation, and basic giving.For example, if your income ranges from $3,000 to $6,000, plan your budget around $3,000. When you earn more, that extra income becomes your margin—money you can use to pay down debt, save, or plan ahead for slower seasons.This approach protects you from overcommitting when income drops and helps you live within your means.Create an Income-Holding AccountWhen your income arrives irregularly, timing can be just as stressful as the amount. One simple solution is to use an income-holding account.Here's how it works:Deposit all income into one central account—your “holding tank.”Once a month, transfer your budgeted amount into your regular spending account.This method smooths out your cash flow, allowing you to “pay yourself” a steady income each month. Proverbs 27:23 gives this timeless reminder:“Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds.”In today's world, that means knowing where your money is, where it's going, and when it's available.Also, if your income fluctuates, an emergency fund isn't optional—it's essential.Start by saving enough to cover one month's expenses, then aim for three to six months over time. Use “boom” months to grow your buffer before adding new spending. When slower seasons come, you'll be able to keep paying yourself consistently.Differentiate Between Fixed and Flexible ExpensesAnother key to managing a variable income is learning to distinguish between fixed and flexible expenses.Fixed expenses—like rent, insurance, and loan payments—stay the same.Flexible expenses—like dining out, entertainment, or travel—can adjust with your income.During lean months, trim flexible spending. When income increases, you can replenish your savings or increase your giving. Remember, self-control is one of the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23), and that includes how we handle our finances.One of the easiest ways to get off track is through “surprise” expenses that shouldn't be surprises—car repairs, insurance premiums, or property taxes.List all your irregular expenses for the year and divide each by twelve. Set that amount aside monthly in a sinking fund, so when those bills come, you're ready. No scrambling. No stress. Just peace that comes from faithful planning.Trust the Provider, Not the PaycheckEven when your income is unpredictable, God is not. Matthew 6 reminds us that our Heavenly Father knows what we need before we ask. He feeds the birds and clothes the flowers—and He will provide for His children.So whether your income changes weekly or seasonally, rest in this truth: stability isn't found in your paycheck—it's found in God's faithful provision.If you're ready to build a flexible, faith-filled budget, the FaithFi app can help.

Once I reach $200,000, I'd like to start investing $10,000 a month in something with greater growth potential, even if it carries a bit more risk. Right now, I'm earning about 4% at the bank. What would be a wise next step for that money?I've just moved into an independent living facility and am in the process of selling my condo, which should close soon. I'll need the proceeds to help cover my living expenses, but I'm wondering—how should I handle tithing on that money?I just wanted to express my gratitude for the way you and your team share wisdom so respectfully and thoughtfully. Listening to your program has really deepened my understanding and helped me grow.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

In this episode of the Sunlight Tax Podcast, I talk with Dr. Matthew Fiedler about the new One Big Beautiful Bill Act—and what it could mean for your healthcare and taxes. We break down how the government shutdown affects healthcare access, why there are major Medicaid cuts, and what trade-offs come with the new tax cuts. The conversation highlights the challenges faced by low and moderate-income individuals in accessing healthcare, especially in light of new administrative requirements and potential loss of coverage. We also talk about what this means if you're self-employed or run a small business. With shifting healthcare policies and tax laws, good bookkeeping and clear financial records matter more than ever. Dr. Fiedler emphasizes the need for a more rational approach to healthcare financing and the importance of bookkeeping for self-employed individuals.

When you stay on top of your bookkeeping, you'll feel more confident and relieved knowing you have financial information you can count on to make smart business decisions. When it comes to your business finances and particularly your bookkeeping, I often hear business owners who are feeling overwhelmed and stressed because their bookkeeping has started to pile up, and they feel behind. I know this is the time of the year when most business owners realize they may have fallen behind in their bookkeeping, and they start to look for ways they can catch up before it is too late. These feelings of stress and overwhelm can creep up on you as the end of the year and tax season start to draw near. In today's episode, I am talking about tips for staying up to date with your bookkeeping. It doesn't matter if you are staying up to date with your bookkeeping or if you've fallen behind; you'll benefit from the information in this podcast. Now is the time to really look at your financial statements and make sure you end the year exactly how you planned…or at the very least, you can end the year so that you are knowledgeable about your finances, and you can take advantage of any end of the year tax planning. You can certainly be strategic with tax deductions when you plan ahead, but if you wait until after the end of the year, it's pretty hard to go back and make any changes. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you're a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA; I want you to know that if you have fallen behind in your bookkeeping, it's not too late to catch up, but don't put it off any longer.

In this episode of the Sunlight Tax podcast, I dig into the real impact of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services on spending habits and financial health. These “pay-later” plans may seem harmless, but they can quietly lead people, especially young consumers—into cycles of debt and financial stress. I break down how BNPL changes the way we think about money, what the long-term risks are, and why financial education is one of the most effective tools for protecting yourself. Research shows that learning even the basics of personal finance can save you tens of thousands of dollars over your lifetime. Also mentioned in this episode: 02:00 Introduction to Personal Finance and Consumer Culture 04:15 The Dangers of Buy Now, Pay Later Services 06:37 The Importance of Personal Finance Education 09:49 The Value of Financial Literacy 12:28 Building Wealth Through Smart Financial Habits 15:11 Conclusion and Call to Action If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!

Have you ever caught yourself thinking it had to be all or nothing? Like, you're either doing everything perfectly or it doesn't even count? Maybe it's that I'm either all in on this new habit or I've failed again. Or I'm either working nonstop or completely checked out. For so many accountants and high-stress professionals, this kind of black-and-white thinking feels normal, even productive. It gives us a false sense of control. But it's actually one of the biggest mindset traps keeping you stuck, exhausted, and constantly feeling like you're falling short. Today, we're diving into how all-or-nothing thinking shows up in your life, why it keeps you from growing, and how to start breaking free so you can feel more balanced, focused, and proud of the life you're building.

Being efficient will save you time, and since we only have so much time each and every day, you want to make sure you are maximizing all the efficiencies you can in your business.

In this episode of the Sunlight Tax Podcast, I'm diving into the One Big Beautiful Act, a major tax law that passed this summer. I found a great, nonpartisan article from the Brookings Institution and the Tax Policy Center, and with the authors' permission. It's called “When Tax Laws Defy Public Opinion: What OBBBA Reveals.” The piece lays out the short-term wins of this law, but also the long-term effects on things like healthcare and our social safety net. What really struck me is the gap between what people want and what lawmakers actually do, and how much wealth drives those decisions. For me, the big lesson is that we need to frame fiscal issues in ways that connect with the public, and ultimately, push for campaign finance reform to get legislation that reflects real public priorities. Also mentioned in this episode: 01:05 Introduction to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act 02:34 The Societal Impact of the Tax Bill 04:44 Public Opinion vs. Legislative Action 07:29 Disparities in Wealth and Policy Preferences 10:31 The Importance of Campaign Finance Reform If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!

How much time do you spend thinking about what other people are thinking, specifically, what you think they're thinking about you? I want you to be honest. How many times have you changed your behavior, dressed a certain way, bought something, or taken (or not taken) an opportunity because of what you imagined someone else might think? Your parents. Your boss. Your kids. Your partner. A neighbor. That colleague at the office. Even strangers. If you're like most of the accountants and professionals I coach, the answer is: a lot.

In this episode, Frankie Tortora and Steve Folland have a chat in response to a question from photographer Victoria Phipps. She says:“Hi Frankie and Steve!I'm a photographer specialising in analogue family photography (as in film, from the olden days when we were the kids!)… maternity, newborns, families etc.I've been in business for 15 years and have often struggled with the concept of “speculate to accumulate” when it comes to business growth. Or in the case of freelancers — personal growth!Do you subscribe to this theory? Obviously as freelancers we don't often have the big budgets that larger corporations have to play with, so decisions around investing in further professional education, coaching, fancier equipment etc. take a bit of thinking about. It's sometimes hard to know what will ‘move the needle' in your business.Do you have a set of rules you apply when making decisions like this or do you follow your gut? Do you have any examples of times when the outcome of an investment in your own business growth has made it worthwhile? Or times when you've got it totally wrong and thrown your money down the drain?!Victoria”What would your advice be?

In this episode of the Sunlight Tax podcast, I reveal the #1 habit that sets successful freelancers apart: consistent saving. Discover why saving is like a muscle you need to train, how small, steady contributions to retirement accounts can snowball into long-term financial security, and why waiting for the "perfect" moment to save holds you back. I share my personal journey, real success stories from my community, and practical tips to overcome the psychological barriers that keep many creatives and freelancers from building wealth. Whether you're just starting out or have been self-employed for years, you'll learn how to take imperfect but powerful action toward your financial goals and harness the power of compound interest to create a more secure future. If you've ever felt behind on saving, this episode will give you the motivation and strategy you need to start today.

Let me ask you something. How often do you find yourself in the middle of a negative emotion like stress, frustration, guilt, loneliness, or even boredom, and instead of just feeling it, you immediately start trying to escape it? Maybe you scroll through your phone, grab some chocolate from the pantry, or you dive into another spreadsheet at work, even though you're already exhausted. Maybe you negotiate with yourself by saying something like, I'll just do this one thing to feel better, and tomorrow I'll get back on track. How familiar does this sound to you? If you're thinking, How did you know what I was thinking, I want you to know that you're not alone. Almost every client I work with, especially the high-stress professionals like CPAs, tax preparers, bookkeepers, lawyers, and business owners, struggles with negative emotions. And I want you to know, nothing has gone wrong. Negative emotions are not only normal, but they are also part of the full human experience. But the way you handle them? That's where everything changes. And today, we're going to talk about how to stop letting negative emotions run your life, and instead, how to manage them in a way that gets you closer to the life you actually want.

This week on the Sunlight Tax podcast, I break down the biggest misconceptions about professional accounting services and explain why relying on tax preparation alone doesn't give small business owners or creative entrepreneurs the full value they need. I talk about the importance of proactive tax planning, bookkeeping, and year-round financial strategy, and why high-quality accounting services can feel expensive but are worth the investment. That's exactly why I created Money Bootcamp, a comprehensive course package and bookkeeping setup training for freelancers, sole proprietors, and solopreneurs. It helps get you set up right for taxes, tracking the right things, and growing a giant pile of money without wasting your time. Also mentioned in this episode: 01:00 Understanding the Value of Professional Accounting 02:19 Common Misconceptions About Accountants 03:43 What You Don't Get with Tax Preparation 06:55 The Costs of Quality Accounting Services 11:40 The Need for Accessible Financial Education 13:49 Money Bootcamp If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!

Do you ever notice how hard it feels to say no? Maybe it's when a colleague asks you to pick up extra work even though you're already drowning in deadlines. Or maybe it's when a friend invites you to something you don't want to do, but you say yes because you don't want to disappoint them. Saying no often feels uncomfortable, almost like you're letting someone down or being selfish. But what if I told you that saying no could actually be easy? That saying no can be one of the most powerful tools you use to protect your time, your energy, and your mental health? And that saying no can even be done in a way that strengthens, not damages, your relationships? Let's dive in… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.

Entrepreneurs often find reasons to delay taking the leap and going all in on their business. One of the most common excuses? Insurance. Insurance can feel like a luxury, especially when you're only dedicating 10-15 hours a week to building your business. It seems out of reach, and understandably so. But when I went all in, committing 40-50 hours a week to my business, I gave myself a $30,000 raise. Today, I want to give you a clear understanding of insurance and encourage you to see that it may not be as out of reach as you think.
