Starting and scaling a business can be expensive, but you do not have to go into massive debt

just to get your business baby off the ground. If there's one thing I love, it's ballin on a budget,

and my guest today just happens to be the best when it comes to helping business owners

start right where they are and build a successful

business completely debt-free. Carrie Northington is a stay-at-home mom turned serial

entrepreneur. Once suffering from anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, she persevered to create

a multiple six-figure fitness business and a seven-figure grossing restaurant

concept called Protein House. Carrie holds a bachelor's degree in both nursing and psychology.

Yes, she's super smart and she's passionate about helping others transform their lives mentally,

physically, and financially.

Of all the hats she wears, though, being a mom is her favorite.

I get to spend a little quality time with one of my favorite people on the planet and someone who just inspires me daily.

That's Ms. Carrie Norton. So

thanks for being here, Carrie. Oh my gosh. Thank you for having me. And honestly, same to you.

I know it. It's like we live on opposite sides of Phoenix. So even though we both are in the same

town, it feels like we have a long distance relationship. I swear it does. Isn't that funny? We're what an hour apart
