Most money drift does not begin with one dramatic mistake. It begins when small decisions remain open for too long: a subscription no one uses, a savings transfer that never became automatic, a family goal that sounds important but never reaches the calendar.
This reset is designed for one focused 90-minute session. You will not rebuild your entire financial life. You will identify the decisions creating the most drag, connect them to what matters now, and leave with a short list of actions for the next 30 days.
Before you begin, gather the last two months of bank and card activity, your recurring-bill list, a blank sheet of paper, and any calendar shared with the people affected by your choices. Put your phone on Do Not Disturb. The goal is not perfect accounting. It is to turn vague pressure into a few visible decisions.
Start by drawing three columns: Keep, Change, and Decide Later. Write each open money decision on one line, without solving it yet. Include commitments of time and attention as well as dollars. A cheap obligation that creates weekly friction may deserve attention before a larger expense that is working exactly as intended.
