In March 2021, I started coaching a couple who had already made big progress—paying off $35,000 on their own. But with $220,716 in debt still ahead, the reality of how long this journey would take hit hard.
Instead of backing down, they doubled down. Both took on side hustles, worked their way into better jobs, and stayed committed—even when it felt impossible. There were ups, there were downs, and I know there were moments they wanted to quit. But they didn’t.
After four and half years of grit, sacrifice, and relentless determination, they officially became 100% debt-free! 🎉
But here’s what truly amazes me: this journey didn’t just change their bank account—it changed them. The habits they built are now a part of who they are. They no longer feel lost when it comes to money. Instead, they confidently make financial choices based what they value.
I still remember when she used to ask, "When can I stop shopping at thrift stores?" ( I never told her she had to shop at thrift stores- it was her choice) We chuckle about it. Now? She tells me she loves thrift shopping—it’s just part of who she is!
And their journey isn’t over. With their debt behind them, they have their sights set on their next big goal: buying a home. They can see their future clearly.
I can’t wait to share their story from their perspective in a future newsletter! But for now, I hope their journey inspires you.
If you're feeling like your financial goals are too far away, remember—it’s not about how fast you go. It’s about never stopping.
