Episode 05: The $70k mistake that almost broke me
In this episode, I’m sharing a story I never thought I’d talk about publicly — the $70,000 financial mistake that nearly broke me.
I’m opening up about the debt I found myself in, what I wish I knew earlier, and how I managed to turn things around. From navigating conversations with creditors, to budgeting, to choosing the right financial support — I’m walking you through the real, unfiltered story and what I’ve learned the hard way.
Whether you’re working your way out of debt, rebuilding your money mindset, or just want to be more financially empowered — this one’s for you.
We cover:
– The honest truth about how I ended up $70,000 in debt
– The importance of budgeting and tracking your expenses
– How to talk to your creditors when things go south
– Using 0% balance transfer cards strategically
– Why you need a financial advisor (a good one!)
– My favourite debt payoff strategy: the snowball method
– What this taught me about shame, resilience and starting over
