Publisher's summary

Managing your money and finances can be stressful and can take a toll on your relationships and well-being. But it doesn't have to be that way. Join certified financial coach and mom Jessi Fearon as she helps you get a handle on your finances and lays out the doable steps her family took to pay off all their debts--including their mortgage!--and pursue their dreams, all on a $47,000-a-year salary.

Jessi Fearon vividly remembers the day she broke down, knowing that her family could not pay the bills with a second baby on the way. Like many Americans, they were overwhelmed by debt and living paycheck to paycheck, wondering if it was possible to ever get ahead or even catch up. But on that day, something changed, and she and her husband decided to make a drastic lifestyle change that would put them back on the path toward their dreams.

Their decision not only allowed her to stay home with their children, but in two years, they were able to pay off their consumer debt, and, in six years, they paid off their home mortgage--all on their $47,000-a-year income. And now she shares what she's learned with others who are struggling just like she once did.

With been-there wisdom and step-by-step help, Jessi gives you the tools you need to:

  • Take control of your finances with practical first steps to budgeting and understanding debt
  • Identify the four different ways we struggle with money and how each one affects the way we manage--or mismanage--our money
  • Replace the lies you've been taught about money
  • Discover money-saving apps, financial tips, and ideas for generating additional income to pay off debt more quickly

Take it from Jessi: you don't need a finance degree or a six-figure income to build a great life for your family. Getting Good with Money will inspire, encourage, and equip you to achieve financial freedom that lasts.

Praise for Getting Good with Money:

"In the age of consumerism, Jessi brings calm into the chaos of living financially strapped by encouraging and guiding families to discover the beauty of living in financial freedom. No matter the size of your income, Getting Good with Money will lead you toward the stability you crave."

--Alli Worthington, bestselling author of Standing Strong

Great book! Really got me thinking.

This book inspired me to reevaluate my finances. A practical book like this sometimes falls short in audio format but this one is great! Especially because if you need any extra help (I’m a very visual person especially when it comes to numbers) you can go to her blog and learn more about most of the topics that she talks about in her book. Also there’s a pdf you get with the audiobook. Just hit the three dots in the top right corner while you’re listening. (Sharing that because I had to google how to access the pdf)

Overall good book and very well narrated. Would highly recommend it for newly married couples or young people just entering (the real world). But honestly, no matter where you are on your journey there’s something for you in this book.

Learned a lot!

Wonderfully written with really great tips. The author did a great job explaining her methods, being realistic with what an emergency fund should look like, and motivating me to begin tackling debt. Really enjoyed this book.

Just Ok

Before listening, didn’t realize her ideas are based on Christianity and the Bible. I’ve nothing against those ideas but was expecting a different approach than I’ve heard before

Simple, Practical & Inspiring

This is a great book. It’s very practical which requires disciple. I say disciple, because though her methods are simple, you have to put in the work. It has encouraged and motivated me.

Must read

It’s so good. So much information and it makes it all so understandable. I feel very prepared to start working with my finances. It’s a little more religious than I personally care for but I don’t think the scripture takes away from how informative and helpful it is.
