Once you start the process of tackling a big goal (think: start a business, buy a home, plan a celebration—you get the picture), does your brain end up malfunctioning and command-quitting on you?
Good news: Saving for a big goal doesn't have to be so overwhelming. Take it from Food Heaven founders and registered dietitians Wendy Lopez and Jessica Jones, who turned to a strategic savings plan to create the online healthy-eating platform.
"Food Heaven started off as a passion project, and through savings we've really been able to grow our business and turn this into a full-time job," explains Lopez. "We’re a go-to nutrition resource, especially for people who feel underrepresented within the wellness industry."
Saving was a major factor in launching the endeavor—and continues to fuel Food Heaven today. "[We set] up a savings account that was completely separate from our checking," Jones says. "It allowed us to have a different mindset about the money that was already put away and really think about the big picture."
