What Participants
Have Said

I attended the Budget Reset workshop after my younger child started university and I realised I hadn't looked at our household spending structure in years. The workbook was more useful than I expected — it asks questions I hadn't thought to ask. The evening format was manageable alongside work. I would say the first session was slightly slow, but by the third it felt purposeful.

Nine months is a real commitment, and I wasn't certain I could maintain attendance. I did manage it — only missed one session. What I found valuable was the continuity. You don't have to re-introduce yourself or your situation each time. By month four, the discussion had a kind of depth that I don't think would have been possible in a shorter format. The clothbound binder is sitting on my desk, and I do refer back to it.

Long-Term Planning Reading Series

My husband and I attended the Household Communication Workshop together, which I'd recommend if both partners are willing. The scenario cards were a bit confronting in the best way — the situations felt realistic rather than textbook. We didn't resolve anything over the weekend, but we had conversations we hadn't managed to have at home. The follow-up reflection circle three weeks later was also worth attending.

I'd describe myself as someone who has avoided thinking about long-term financial planning because the topic felt too large and too charged. The Long-Term Planning Series addressed that indirectly — by giving the topic a vocabulary and a structure, it became something I could work with. I haven't gone to a financial adviser yet, but I feel better prepared for that conversation when I do.

The Budget Reset workshop was shorter than I expected — three sessions goes quite quickly. I would have benefited from a fourth session or a more extended follow-up. That said, the ledger template is genuinely practical and I've used it since. The small group made it easier to discuss things that would otherwise feel too personal to raise with strangers.

Mid-Life Budget Reset Workshop

I came to the Household Communication Workshop specifically because of my mother — we'd been avoiding talking about what would happen with her property. The workshop didn't solve that, and I didn't expect it to. But it gave me a clearer sense of what kind of conversation I actually needed to start, and some language to start it with. That was the useful outcome.
