Episode Description from the Publisher

By the time Leisha found the podcast, she had already done all the things people say should work. She had lived frugally, sacrificed constantly, sold belongings, skipped experiences, and spent years trying to budget her way out of stress. Still, the cycle kept repeating itself. What caught her attention wasn’t another rigid money plan. It was hearing conversations that treated money as part of a real human life instead of a math problem disconnected from everything else. Leisha shares with Erin and Keri how discovering Get The Hell Out Of Debt changed far more than her bank account. While paying off debt across two countries, navigating complicated family dynamics, surviving four layoffs, and rebuilding her confidence from the inside out, she slowly stopped seeing herself as someone who was “bad with money.” Thanks to Erin and the support of our online community, she learned what becomes possible when you finally believe your future can look different than your past.  Join Leisha in our online community: www.getthehelloutofdebt.com  Today’s episode is brought to you by Mint Mobile.  Get 50% off Unlimited premium wireless.
