The uncertainty coupled with the common, underlying need to “keep up with the Jones’” only makes matters worse. But sometimes hearing how other people just like us have navigated getting out of debt and found financial freedom is the kick in the pants we need to pave our own way to total financial freedom. On this episode of SHE, we’re diving into this with Debt-Free Living Enthusiast, Jessi Fearon, and tackling big important questions like: What are some mindsets to adopt to help us stick to a plan to getting out of debt?

When growing a family and paying off debt simultaneously, what is the hardest sacrifice and how can we get through it? How can living debt-free change our spending habits long term? Plus, Jessi serves up some great advice for those wanting to take ownership of their finances and attain a debt-free life but struggle with commitment. Sister, there is no better time to take control of your finances than right now. When you know your numbers and have a plan to complete financial freedom, you won’t just feel confident – you’ll be empowered to make better decisions for your future, too.
