On Holding Each Other Accountable

September 17, 2014 By Cathy

Over the weekend, John and I celebrated our sixth wedding anniversary. It was a low-key day as we donated blood in the morning and later went out to dinner with Monica. In past anniversary posts, I shared discussion points and tips for merging finances and wedding planning tips. This year (with #FinCon14 happening now!) I can’t help but reflect on what a great accountabl-a-buddy John is. I wasn’t sure about going to FinCon this year. It’s in New Orleans, so there’s the cost of the flight, hotel, food, and conference (blah blah blah, excuses excuses). Do I want to grow Fiscally Chic? Certainly! But I was hesitant to invest in myself and the business. Fortunately, John talked some sense into me and I’m excited to learn some new blogging tricks and meet other fantastic financial bloggers. If you’re there, I’d love to meet you!

Everybody needs someone (OK, probably multiple people) in their life to help encourage, challenge, and hold them accountable. That’s why people have personal trainers, coaches, mentors, financial planners, spiritual directors, etc.

Who in your life is helping you become the best version of yourself?
