Has caring for your kiddo with special needs left you physically, mentally, or financially drained? Do you feel like your life has been put on hold, even though you know God still placed dreams on your heart?

Are you tired of debt calling the shots, bills running your day, and groceries eating your paycheck? Do you want to fund your dreams and fully support your child’s needs without guilt, confusion, or constant sacrifice?

If you’re ready to grow your finances so you can protect your child’s future and finally make room for your own, welcome to the Simple Money Systems Podcast with step-by-step episodes, created by a mom who truly understands this life and is walking it right alongside you.

I’m Diana, a financial coach, simple money systems specialist, and a mom to a son with Down syndrome. I don’t teach from a quiet or perfect life. I teach from inside the mess: the advocacy, the emotional load, the unpredictable days, and the weight of carrying everything for everyone. Every strategy shared here has been shaped and tested by real life - for real moms raising children with special needs.

Simple Money Systems was built for moms like you who hold emotional, mental, and financial responsibility every single day. This isn’t about doing more or trying harder. It’s about simplifying money decisions, reducing pressure, and creating a clear structure so your finances stop adding to the load and start supporting the life you’re holding together.

Inside the podcast, you’ll get simple systems, real-life examples, mindset shifts, and weekly encouragement to help you:

✓ Stop living paycheck to paycheck
✓ Create predictable cash flow
✓ Pay off debt even when money feels tight
✓ Pursue your dreams without guilt
✓ Build a future that reflects your goals

If you want peace over perfection, simple systems over stress, and progress that actually fits your life - this podcast is for you. You don’t need to be “good at math.” More discipline won’t fix it. Another complicated budget isn’t the answer.

What does matter is a system that understands your life… and maybe a cup of coffee you don’t have to reheat three times.

  • 149 II How to Make Finances Simple: 3-Step Simple Money Audit to Financial Peace

    149 II How to Make Finances Simple: 3-Step Simple Money Audit to Financial Peace
    Jan 18 2026

    SHOW NOTES:

    In this episode, I break down the 3-Step Simple Money Audit and show you how to finally understand the difference between your real needs, your value-add wants, and those no-value wants that quietly drain your energy and your bank account. I also walk you through the power of the 2-Line Budgeting System—the simple framework that brings peace, stability, and clarity to your monthly finances. We talk about why the word audit used to make me cringe from my accounting days, and how this new kind of audit is the complete opposite: it’s guilt-free, empowering, and designed to help you dream bigger than ever. You’ll learn why doing these audits periodically—especially before the new year, before big purchases, or as part of your long-term dream planning—can transform not just your money, but your confidence and your future. Tune in to step into more clarity, more alignment, and more freedom.

    „I absolutely recommend Diana! I’m currently going through her course, and honestly, I’m a bit shocked at how my husband and I had been handling our finances. We grew up without credit cards—so we didn’t know better, and we ended up deep in debt. This course has been a game-changer. It’s opened my eyes and completely shifted the way I think about money. It’s not just about getting out of debt—it’s about learning how to stay out for good. I’m so grateful there’s finally practical guidance like this available, and I truly hope our kids won’t repeat the same financial mistakes we made.”

  • 148 II How to Plan Financial Goals This Year (Step by Step): 4 Areas Every Mom with Down Syndrome Child Should Check First

    148 II How to Plan Financial Goals This Year (Step by Step): 4 Areas Every Mom with Down Syndrome Child Should Check First
    Jan 5 2026

    SHOW NOTES:

    In this episode, we begin the new year by slowing down and looking inward—at the four parts of you that shape how you live, decide, and manage money: your spiritual, emotional, physical, and intellectual well-being. Before planning goals or budgets, I invite you to dream again—boldly, freely, and without limits—and then gently turn those dreams into intentional goals using a paper planner and the 2-Line Budget. You’ll learn why caring for your 4 “I Am’s” brings clarity, calm, and confidence not only to your finances, but to your entire life. This episode is a loving reminder for busy, high-need life moms that when you are supported and aligned, everything else—including money—becomes lighter and more manageable.

  • 147 II How the 2-Line Budget and My Daily Systems Built Best Year Yet with My Down Syndrome Child

    147 II How the 2-Line Budget and My Daily Systems Built Best Year Yet with My Down Syndrome Child
    Dec 29 2025

    SHOW NOTES:

    Simple budgeting didn’t add more to my plate, it gave me peace in the middle of a full, demanding life. In this episode, I share how creating a gentle money rhythm through simple daily check-ins, weekly planning, and a flexible 2-line budget helped me move from financial noise to clarity, consistency, and confidence. From my Money Funnel that removed guilt and second-guessing, to my Morning Power Hour and nightly Honor Hour, you’ll hear how small, intentional habits transformed not just our finances, but our family life, marriage, and sense of purpose. If you’re a busy mom especially one navigating special needs parenting, this episode is an encouraging reminder that money can support your life instead of controlling it.
