How to Save Money on One Income (and Reduce the Stress)
Living on one income can be tough, but it doesn’t have to mean constant stress. With a few simple shifts, you can save money without feeling like you’re giving up everything fun.

Look for easy swaps instead of sacrifices, plan for big expenses before they hit, and explore small ways to bring in extra income without adding pressure. Thrifting, meal planning (without overcomplicating it), and renegotiating bills can all free up breathing room in your budget. Most importantly, don’t cut out the things that genuinely make life better—prioritise the self-care that matters. Your money should support your life, not the other way around.
