Hosting Today: I'm Ashley Patrick, ex detective turned debt-free CEO of my very own business and stay at home mom of three. Not too long ago, my dreams of staying at home with my kids seemed impossible. I thought I'd have to stay miserable in a high stress demanding job, just so I could retire someday. After gaining the confidence in my own ability to manage my family's finances and a simple step-by-step plan to make it happen, I was able to pay off $45,000 in just 17 months, which then allowed me to finally quit my job, stay at home with my kids, and build a debt-free business. Now, my mission is to help moms like you conquer debt and free themselves from the mental load of handling their family's finances. “It's really important to remove temptation. So, once you know what is causing you to overspend, remove that temptation—delete the apps, unfollow the people, unsubscribe. Understand that it's a habit, and habits can change, but it takes time and practice. You've got to be patient with yourself. Once you realize what the trigger is, you can set up roadblocks so that you aren't falling for those temptations as quickly or as often.” - Ashley Patrick Do you ever wish you had more time, space, and accountability to tackle those tasks you know should be priorities—like budgeting, paying off debt, saving money, or meal planning? If those to-dos keep slipping off your list, you're not alone! Imagine being part of a supportive community of busy moms who are navigating the same financial goals and cheering each other on.
