Summary

On today's show, we have a truly inspiring story to share. Leo and Faith were about to get married when they attended pre-marital counseling at their church. It was then that they were encouraged to sit down and get honest about the finances and their goals as they started a family together. In total, they carried over $211,000 worth of debt β€” a combination of both student loans and credit card debt. Rather than give up, they rallied and made a plan to aggressively tackle their debt in the summer of 2017. 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. In a little over a year, they successfully paid down $100,000. They share their story on today's show. Tune in and hit us up on Twitter or Instagram let us know what you think about their story! **This episode originally aired June 13, 2018** Learn more about your ad choices.
