Power Play with Dr. EJT: How I Paid Off $15K in Debt in 7 Months with My Business

from 7-Figure Educator · host Dr. Erica Jordan-Thomas

Struggling with debt? In this video, I share how I paid off $15K in just 7 months using strategies from my business 💼. From shifting your mindset to treating your business like a bank, I break down the exact steps that helped me leave my job, build savings, and pursue my doctorate at Harvard—all while staying true to my values. If you’re ready to bet on yourself and transform your financial future, this one’s for you. **KEY POINTS:** - **Unwavering Belief:** “Money is all around you.” Learn how adopting this mindset changes how you approach business and debt. - **Mindset Shifts:** Discover the importance of seeing your business as a tool to solve problems and generate revenue. - **Strategic Debt Payoff:** Map out your debt, prioritize quick wins, and create a step-by-step plan to tackle it with intention. - **Building Community:** Find people who value your services and are willing to invest in the solutions you provide. - **Investing in Growth:** Allocate revenue wisely—50% to debt and 50% to savings—to build a stable foundation for your next big move. - **Resilience in Action:** From negotiating payments to securing contracts, see how persistence and strategy lead to financial freedom. As I always say, "You can't change something you're not willing to see." Facing your debt head-on is the first step to freedom. By applying these lessons, you too can leverage your business to pay off debt, save for the future, and create opportunities for personal and professional growth.
