  • Where Does the Money Go? (Tracking Expenses) 🧾

    Ever feel like your money just disappears? You know the salary came in, but by mid-month, there’s nothing left. That’s not magic — that’s untracked spending. But don’t worry — you’re not alone, and you’re not careless. You just haven’t seen the full picture yet.

    This section helps you gently uncover where your money is going. No guilt. Just awareness. Because you can’t control what you don’t understand. 🌿

    • 🔍Write Down Every Rupee

      For the next 7–10 days, track every rupee you spend — tea, tips, snacks, groceries, auto fare, gifts, recharge, everything. Use a diary, a wall calendar, or an app — whatever you like.

      You’ll begin to notice:

      • How often “small expenses” add up
      • Which purchases are necessary vs. emotional
      • What you forgot you were even spending on

      This isn’t about judging yourself — it’s about seeing clearly. That’s where real change begins.

    • 🔍 Spotting the Invisible Leaks

      Many women are shocked when they realise how much goes into:

      • Online impulse buys 🛍️
      • Festive shopping without planning
      • Cash given to relatives or children without recording
      • Extra groceries that go unused

      When you see these leaks, you can fix them — kindly, not harshly. You don’t need to stop everything. You just need to plan better.

      💡 Tip: Involve your family. Make it a weekly activity — "Where did we spend this week?" Don't ask others, but just give your numbers. You'll be surprised how empowering it feels to know where your money is going.
