A Simple Introduction to Personal Budgeting

A clear, practical way to get on top of your money — without stress, spreadsheets or judgement.


If money feels overwhelming, you’re not alone. Most people were never taught how to budget in a way that actually works in real life. This course exists to change that.


This is a self-paced online course designed to help everyday people create a budget they can actually stick to — one that fits real life, not a textbook.


It’s simple. It’s practical. And it works.


I’ve used this exact process to help thousands of Australians feel calmer and more confident with their money. You don’t need to be good with numbers or enjoy spreadsheets — you just need a clear system, and that’s what this course gives you.


What you’ll learn

You’ll learn how to build a simple, realistic budget that fits your life, how to structure your income and expenses so you always know where your money is going, and how to use bank accounts to make managing money easier. The course also covers creating a savings plan that actually works, without guilt, and building steady habits that help your money feel more stable and less stressful.


How the course works

This isn’t theory or financial jargon. It’s the same practical system I teach in workshops, one-on-one sessions and community programs.


You’ll work through short, easy-to-follow lessons with real examples and a step-by-step process. Whether you’re setting up your first budget or refreshing an old one, you can go at your own pace and come back to the material whenever you need it.


Who this course is for

This course is for people who want to finally understand where their money goes, students and young adults learning to budget for the first time, families who want to get organised and feel more in control, and anyone looking for a calmer, clearer approach to personal money.


What’s included

You’ll get full access to the self-paced online course, step-by-step video lessons, downloadable worksheets and templates, real-life examples and case studies, and lifetime access so you can revisit it whenever you need.


You don’t need to figure this out on your own. This course gives you a clear starting point and a system you can return to again and again.

A Simple Introduction to Personal Budgeting

Hi, I’m Jackie.

I’m the founder of The Simple Budget, and I’ve been teaching practical, everyday money skills to Australians for years.


This course is based on the same simple system I use in workshops and one-on-one sessions — designed to work in real life, without judgement or overwhelm.
