In week two of the BEAM process, we step into evidence. Numbers can feel intimidating P&Ls, budgets, balance sheets, but evidence isn’t just the black-and-white of what comes in and what goes out. Evidence is also the story of what you’ve already overcome. Maybe you put yourself through college on next to nothing, or you found a way to save for that first big family trip, or you had the courage to ask for a raise. Those are all pieces of evidence that you’ve done hard things before, and you’ll do them again. Evidence reminds us: you’ve built from something, even when it didn’t feel possible at the time.
But evidence also holds up the mirror. When you look at your bank or credit card statement, what is it telling you about your values? Are you spending on things that reflect who you are and what you want? Or are you continually drained by habits that don’t align with your goals? Sometimes the hardest part is simply seeing the truth. Because once you know—once you have clarity—you can decide what needs to change. Maybe that’s shifting $80 a month from coffee shop runs into your “Adventure” fund. Maybe it’s meal prepping on Sundays because health is a value you’ve been neglecting. These small, intentional shifts are evidence too: proof that you’re choosing courage over convenience, clarity over chaos.
The truth is, we can’t change what we don’t know. Collecting your evidence—both the stories that show you what you’ve already accomplished and the numbers that show you where you stand today—is where real transformation begins. From there, you get to align your money with your values, redirect your behaviors, and rewrite the story of your finances in a way that actually feels like freedom.
✨ Journal Prompt: Pull up your last month’s bank or credit card statement. Circle three expenses that make you feel proud because they align with your values. Then circle three that don’t. Ask yourself: What do these choices reveal about what I believe, and how can I shift my behavior to reflect the life I truly want?
