One of our single clients came to us with over $263,000 in debt.

💳 $3,000/month in minimum payments

💔 No savings

😩 Business and personal finances completely mixed

👉 But she was ready for change.

In just 7 months, here’s what she accomplished with our coaching and system:

2. 💳 $69,000 in non-mortgage debt
3. 🧾 10 different loans (credit cards, RV, HELOC, debt consolidation, etc.)
4. 💰 $3,000/mo in minimum debt payments
5. 💼 Personal + business finances mixed
6. 🚫 No emergency fund, no savings system
7. 📉 Living paycheck to paycheck — despite a $7,500/month income

✅ Her After:

1. 💥 $263K debt reduced
2. 🧨 Minimum payments dropped from $3,000 ➡️ $1,200/month
3. 💵 Saving $2,400/month for sinking funds
