Summary

We're looking back on 2018's biggest episodes. How could we forget Faith and Leo, the Atlanta newlyweds who realized they carried over $211,000 worth of debt into their marriage? Rather than give up, they rallied and made a plan to aggressively tackle their debt. Faith, a nurse practitioner, took on a part-time job working overnight 5 or 6 days a week. Leo, an occupational therapist, also worked a part-time job in addition to his 9 to 5. As of May 2018, they successfully paid down $100,000. They shared their story with us in June.
