About this episode

Are you ready to get rid of debt but don't know where to start? In this episode, I break down how to think about debt, strategies to pay it off, and why being completely debt-free should never be the goal. Just a quick note, this episode is not just for newbies. When I was a working financial planner I worked with people of all ages who just couldn’t figure out how to get a handle on debt. So, you are not alone if you’re struggling with debt. According to CNBC, the average American has over $90,000 in debt according to 2021 numbers. You'll learn the two strategies to pay off debt, how to deal with the emotions around debt and a deep dive into my debt story.
