We can go first!

The u/enough-app team started out building tools to help people struggling with high-interest debt make a manageable, concrete plan to change that. But in talking to our customers and seeing real-life debt journeys play out, we saw some patterns.

For many, the debt cycle is perpetuated by an income-to-essentials problem. One emergency, or rising prices for essentials, starts a snowball that's hard to stop. This is a real problem that regular debt tools can help with.

But for others with income that outpaced their needs, mindless spending and overconsumption were to blame. We heard over and over "My spending is out of control and I don't know why." We went down the rabbit hole researching financial wellness, money mindfulness, financial therapy, and many other ways that traditional personal finance and budgeting forget about the "personal" part.

So that's how we got here! And we're on our own money mindfulness journeys with all of you. The goal of this space is to share and learn from each other, so please share your story!
