Wooo we love a reset video! I appreciated the chat about taking a step back and acknowledging what a different place you’re in than a few years ago- it’s so easy to get caught up in our current struggles but it really is powerful to shift that perspective and appreciate how far you’ve come! Sending you so much love and light 💗

[@smileycitrus]

absolutely!! we're always so focused on what's next but it's so important to recognise the progress you've made and where you are currently- the good & bad. Thank you lovely 💓

[@aliciamcph8491]

Yes my favourite! A reset video is always so motivating to get me started for the new month. Also I feel you on the money “anxiety” front, even though most of us are privileged the fact that the media is constantly telling us about how expensive life is getting isn’t helping. Thanks for being so real with us, keep up the great work. ❤❤❤ And my favourite line in the video “someone call the police..” 😂 cracked me up

[@smileycitrus]

Yes!! consuming too much media makes me STRESSED. Thanks for watching lovely ❤️ glad you enjoyed x

[@michellemorgan4763]

I’ve just bought your ultimate monthly budget spreadsheet and can’t wait to sort my finances!

[@tahlia4189]

Yay!! My favourite part of the month 🤍 Absolutely love your monthly reset videos, Ella! Love coming along this journey with you - sending you so much love always 🥰 x

[@smileycitrus]

so refreshing watching these videos

[@smileycitrus]

right? they're my fave

[@DonnasWonderland]

I do love the monthly reviews you’re both doing so well with your heads screwed on!👍🏻 I would say remember the traditional anniversary gifts year one is paper you could both certainly do something sweet for not a lot of money if any and it be incredibly special. It’s the thought not the money that counts with these types of gifts ❤

[@smileycitrus]

thank you Donna! & absolutely 🥰 sentimental all the way

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Hi Ella happy Thursday night and I hope you having amazing day today and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you

[@IfersInklings]

Just found your channel. I'm glad you gave your elevator pitch at the beginning. As soon as I heard you say Scorpio, I knew I was in the right place. (...as a fellow Scorpio.)

[@smileycitrus]

Curious to know what Nick does for a living. That fortnightly paycheck is awesome 👏

[@sparkly_sewist]

What other accounts do you recommend for reset videos? You mentioned you loved to watch others, so curious who are your favs! TY

[@smileycitrus]

I love Kalyan Kerbler, Amanda Lynn, Ella Victoria 🫶🏼

[@melissayoutube]

Are you following the traditional gift of paper for first wedding anniversary? We went overseas to celebrate and considered our boarding passes the paper gift haha

[@smileycitrus]

hahaha I love that 😂 I wish we had enough annual leave to take a trip somewhere because that's genius. Yes, we're going with paper gifts!

[@Courtz9800]

Could you please do a video on how you and your partner have your cards/bank accounts like do you have your own personal speeding cards, how do you do your bills account cause obviously one fortnight can have more bills then others etc.

[@smileycitrus]

Hi lovely! I have a video called my "Payday Routune" that goes into detail on this xx

[@kxc73]

What do you do when you go over your budget for certain things?

[@smileycitrus]

We adjust in other areas or just save less that month. I love tracking because it forces us to reflect on areas we spend more in and whether or not we need to budget more or curb our spending a bit

[@linneajosefin]

Where have you bought that calender u show in the intro?

[@smileycitrus]

it's from Steph Pase planners 🥰

[@reelroyals3222]

hi, where can I get that spreadsheet you are using?

[@smileycitrus]

Just added the link to the description box, sorry!

[@hmm4442]

How do I get this spreadsheet??

Hi Ella how does tax work on your social media income?

[@smileycitrus]

Hi! I try to set aside 30-40% of my social media income for tax time as everything I make is pre-tax

[@Jazzhelena]

Once you move into your home, the rent will no longer be an expense which will be nice for you guys 😊

[@smileycitrus]

yes! I can't wait 😅😍

[@gillsteele]

I appreciate you acknowledging that you are in a good financial position. I love your videos but I think sometimes when you see an income of $14,000 a month, which is obviously very high compared to a lot of people out there and especially in the current situation some people (not me) may take it it the wrong. You have to work with what you have and if your not happy you have to earn more money

[@smileycitrus]

thank you! I 100% get this and am hyper aware how fortunate we are. It's definitely taken a lot of hard work to get to this point so I do not take it for granted, especially in this current climate

[@caitsayssmile]

your ELLAvator pitch… I’ll leave 😂

[@smileycitrus]

😂😂

[@rinaxooo1350]

Are you really bringing up money for your husbands birthday? And the fact that your gonna have to spend ? You are so cheap

[@smileycitrus]

do you know how a budget with me works? I talk about ALL our expenses every month

[@BeautyForLife260]

@@smileycitrus They are so rude 🙄 considering they have left multiple comments on your videos over the last year, you’d think they would know how it all works by now. 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@bels5635]

Rinaxooo: And you obviously have comprehension issues😀
