Success Story #1

Finance Coach for First Home Buyers

Georgia & Brayden's Financial Journey
For Georgia & Brayden

Struggling to build structure on apprentice wages, Georgia and Brayden couldn’t secure a loan.

Partnering with a dedicated finance coach, they paid off their personal debt and secured their new home loan approval in just 6 months.

Our financial coaching gave them the exact roadmap they needed.

Georgia and Brayden bought their first home thanks to tailored financial coaching strategies.

ISSUES:

  • Unable to pay off personal debt
  • Unable to save for a deposit
  • Wanting to build their first home but couldn’t secure a loan
  • Lack of structure and planning for household cash flow

“People always told me never to let anyone else budget your money but there is an exception with Alyssa and Andrew. My partner and I have been able to purchase our first home and pay off my bad debt, and I have more money than I’d ever think I’d have especially being an apprentice! The best part is that they don’t control your money you have free range of your money if you need it.”

Success Story #2

Budget Coaching for Massive Debt Reduction

Dave & Michelle's Financial Journey
Read Their Full Story
For Dave & Michelle

Before working with a money coach, Dave and Michelle were frustrated and out of money at the end of every week.

Through our structured budget coaching, they cleared $100,000 in debt in 2 years and are now saving over $1,000 a week towards home ownership.

We didn’t take control of their money; we empowered them to manage it.

Dave and Michelle cleared debt and saved for a home after working with a trusted budget coach.

ISSUES:

  • Frustrated & disillusioned with other budgeting providers who provided no reduction in debt after 4 years
  • Outsourced their responsibilities and their control
  • Always out of money at the end of the week
  • Unable to save even $50 per week

“We were with another popular company to work on our budget, and they taught us absolutely NOTHING! We really just paid them to pay our debts over a long period of time. When we connected with Andrew and Alyssa in a very short period of time we had thousands in our savings and have almost paid off all our debt. If you want financial freedom… give Andrew and Alyssa a call. You’ll be better for it!”

Success Story #3

Stressed, Maxed Out and No Plan

Sean & Olivia's Financial Journey
For Sean & Olivia
  • Personalised plan tailored to their unique situation.
  • Repaired strained relationship and arguments from spending money.
  • Removed reliance on credit card for all purchases (paid off and closed).
  • Collaborated with Financial Planner to setup advanced investment strategy.
  • Collaborated with mortgage broker to remove guarantor (once budget was solid).
  • Left our program with over $30,000 within established back up buffers, investment funds, and trust and love restored.
The holistic finance coach strategy used by Your Budget Mates to help clients achieve financial freedom.

ISSUES:

  • Stress on love and relationship
  • At breaking point with financials
  • Overspending leading to arguments
  • No savings
  • Maxed out credit card
  • Guarantor on family home
  • No financial plan for the future

“My husband and I went to Andrew and Alyssa with credit card debt, no savings and guarantors on our mortgage, we needed a clear understanding of where we were going wrong in our money allocation. 12 months later, no guarantor, no credit card debt (don’t even have one), savings we don’t touch and side savings for holidays and fun.

“These two were so open and honest, never undermining and in turn got us both to be honest, confident and forward thinking with our earnings. Our once a month catch ups included laughs, tears and a really positive understanding of how necessary a solid budget is in this current hostile world.”

Success Story #4

Same Goals, Opposing Beliefs

Derek & Lisa's Financial Journey
For Derek & Lisa
  • Empath & Analytical mindsets reconnected.
  • Relationship recovered.
  • Improved collaboration.
  • Many short-term goals achieved.
  • Calm conversations about money.
  • Reliable system of weekly spending.
  • Overseas holiday achieved (and amazing sunset photos provided to Andrew and Alyssa).
your-budget-mates-success-stories-mortgage-savings-investments-australia

ISSUES:

  • Arguments over spending money even when spending was responsible
  • Same goals, opposite perspectives
  • Disconnect in understanding joint family financial goals

“Engaging in financial coaching with Andrew and Alyssa over the past 12 months has been a journey far greater than simply designing a budget and learning how to follow it.”

“Andrew and Alyssa have helped us to recover our relationship from a very difficult place due to financial strain in which both of us were unknowingly working against each other, despite having quite similar goals.”

“We were supported to explore our personal values and goals, bringing us closer together as a couple, and to work collaboratively to achieve these life goals – no more fights about where the money is going or how we are going to afford this weeks’ groceries or upcoming school camps!”

“After working with Andrew and Alyssa, we have managed to structure our finances in a way in which we have equal responsibility and transparency, have achieved many of our short-term goals and continue to work towards our larger long-term goals.”

“Twelve months ago, we would never have imagined being able to have a calm conversation about our money or budgeting, let alone have worked out a reliable system of weekly spending and saving, in order to take our family on the overseas holiday that we had been dreaming of for many years!”

“Andrew and Alyssa are open, honest and down-to-Earth people who have supported us with empathy, professionalism and a good dose of humour to guide us towards a more abundant future, both financially and within our interpersonal relationships. They have equipped us with a financial plan and the skills to self-manage our finances, with the reassurance that they are available for consultation at any time in the future should we require a ‘check-in’.“

“Thank you for helping us to value what we already have, pursue the things we would still like to achieve in order to enhance our lives further, and to establish a pathway to achieve it!”

Success Story #5

Financial Coaching for Property Investment

Greta & Jason's Financial Journey
Read Their Full Story
For Greta & Jason

Greta and Jason had a fragile investment strategy and decision paralysis.

By engaging our Australia-wide coaching services, they unlocked a new strategy to become debt and mortgage-free in their 40s.

A professional money coach provided the financial visibility they were missing.

Greta and Jason became mortgage-free in their 40s using our Australia-wide money coach services.

ISSUES:

  • Wanted to continue growing wealth by purchasing investment properties
  • Limited property portfolio growth potential – the wrong strategy in place to grow (they didn’t know this)
  • Cashflow strain and couldn’t see where their money was going
  • Decision making paralysis – needed a way forward but couldn’t see it
  • Investment property – positive geared, fixed rate ending potential to choke cashflow
  • Lack of financial visibility
  • Not sure on next steps – overwhelmed, but wanted to ‘do something’

“I can’t thank Budget Mates enough for the impact they’ve had on our finances. We came in feeling overwhelmed, but they’ve completely changed the way we think about money.

It hasn’t just been about numbers—it’s been about learning new habits and gaining confidence in how to manage our budget. We’re now on track to becoming debt-free, something I never thought possible a year ago.

If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and wants to see you succeed, I couldn’t recommend Budget Mates more highly. They’ve honestly helped change our lives.”

Our Track Record

Speaks For Itself

Comments Box SVG iconsUsed for the like, share, comment, and reaction icons

A couple came to us stuck in an exhausting cycle.

One paid fortnightly, one paid monthly. Every month at the 3-week mark, they'd run out of money and lean on their credit card just to get through. The card would get paid off when the monthly pay arrived, leaving them short again. Round and round it went.

The anxiety was real. Checking the bank account multiple times a day. Wondering if payments would bounce. Living in constant financial stress despite earning good income.

We helped them flip their reactive spending into a consistent weekly rhythm. We created bank account structure and flow that supported their budget and goals, regardless of when income arrived.

The result? Financial clarity instead of anxiety. A pantry that's always full. Cars with petrol. Savings happening seamlessly. Credit card paid off and closed. And most importantly, the confidence to manage it all themselves.

That's what brings us joy. Giving people the tools so they never need us again.

If you're stuck in a cycle that won't stop, we'd love to help you break free.

Jo and Ryan were stu

Jo and Ryan were stuck in an exhausting cycle. One paid fortnightly, the other monthly. Every month at week 3, they'd run out of money and rely on their credit card. When the monthly pay came in, they'd pay it off in full, only to be short again. Round and round it went.

Ryan checked their bank account multiple times daily, heart racing, wondering if the next payment would bounce.

When we presented our fees, they thought: "How can we afford this?"

Then the game-changer: "How can we NOT afford to do this?"

That question changed everything. 🌟

𝐀𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟐 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫:

• Credit card paid off and closed (2 weeks ahead of schedule!)
• $17,000 in savings across multiple accounts
• 2 new cars, properly structured without damaging their budget
• Consistent weekly spending that actually works
• Full pantry, full petrol tanks, zero stress
• No more anxiety checking the bank balance
• No more 3-week stress cycle

But you know what we're most proud of?

Jo and Ryan now have the 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨𝐨𝐥𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐛𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐬. They don't need to keep paying us fees forever, and that's exactly how it should be.

Thank you Jo and Ryan for trusting us with your journey. We're so excited for those international trips and camping adventures ahead! 🏕️✈️

Money stress isn't just affecting your bank account.

It's affecting your bedroom. Your conversations. Your connection. Your entire relationship.

You can't relax. You can't plan. You can't dream together because you're too busy surviving or arguing about bills.

One of you shuts down. The other explodes. Neither of you actually addresses the problem. You just fight about symptoms.

And meanwhile, your kids are watching this play out. Learning that money means stress. That partnerships mean conflict.

We help couples rebuild financial intimacy. Not just budgets – actual teamwork. Communication. Trust. Shared goals instead of blame.

Couples who worked with us went from fighting about money to building wealth together. Same relationship. Different foundation.

Imagine waking up without financial anxiety.

No knot in your stomach. No dread about bills. No shame about your bank balance. Just peace. Confidence. Control.

You make financial decisions easily. Your partner trusts you. Your kids learn from you. You say yes to opportunities without panic.

You're might not be rich, but you're in control. And that changes everything.

This isn't a dream. It's achievable. Our clients are living this reality right now after years of financial chaos.

They’ve eliminated debt. Built savings. Gained confidence. Transformed their lives. Not through luck, but through learning, through structure, and through taking back control.
