Finding Your Why
What motivates you to be debt free?
This week I have Tania Brown on the show. We sat together at the Christy Wright Business Boutique Conference and we had instant chemistry, so I knew I had to have her on the show. She shares her story of overcoming 6-figure debt (which also saved her marriage), her shift from financial advising to financial coaching, and her "why" (plus why it's important for you to have one too).
If you're feeling like you'll never get out of debt and need a good motivation story, this one's for you!
Topics discussed in episode 42:
Tania's money story and how Dave Ramsey's program helped to save Tania's marriage and her financial health
