48 | How to Use Financial Dreams to Pay Off Debt and Save Money

Do your financial dreams go beyond improving your credit score or paying off debt? One of the common challenges I see as a coach is that people do not allow themselves to have financial dreams outside of common financial advice like saving more money, improving their credit score, or paying off debt. When I think about my own financial dreams, even while I was in the midst of paying off my student loans and saving $50 per month, my dreams were big. I was outlining the next version of my life because while I was aware of the goal to pay down debt and save more, I also knew those challenges weren’t always going to be there. In today’s episode, I want to give you permission to dream.  What do you want life to look like after you’ve saved six months of expenses or after you’ve paid off all of your debt?
