Lessons I’ve learned overcoming debt & living a life I love at 40

This photo was from 2018. I was living out my office & tryin like hell to pay off $45,000 in debt…⁣

I told a coworker the other day, she was asking if I ever struggled.⁣

Basically, “struggle bus” was my middle name y’all

As one who has made all the wrong decisions before making the right ones, one thing I am most grateful are the things I’ve done wrong that didn’t turn out the way I’d hoped because they taught me how to do things better — with health, relationships, & finances.⁣

Sometimes it takes a heart break & f*cking up royally to shake us awake, to help us see we’re settling.⁣

I refuse to live a life of mediocracy.⁣

The last straw was 2018, when I was livin out of my office, showering at gyms, goin thru a heartbreak & no idea what the f*ck I was doing or going.⁣

I was eating at the hotel across the street, breakfast was free.

I did get caught sleeping in my office, which forced me to make the painful decision to move back in with my parents.⁣

My health & gut issues exacerbated. I was 20lbs heavier.⁣ Yet I knew I was meant for more.⁣

Each year I made different choices to move the needle forward no matter how small.⁣

 “Never did the world make a Queen of a girl who hides behind a facade of perfection in a house of guarded walls but an imperfect woman of wisdom in a house of mirrors & glass.”⁣⁣

I’m not afraid to admit there’s many things I still have not mastered & that’s ok.

I too have been the human who:⁣

◽️was living in the cheapest apartment she could find⁣

◽️was going thru a 2nd divorce feeling like a failure & confused about identity⁣

◽️had a car repoed, $45,000 in debt, $5 to my name⁣

◽️was sick with Crohns, disordered eating & orthorexia feeling powerless & ugly

◽️thought being single meant there was something wrong with me & I needed to settle instead of realizing I needed be the person I wanted to be with 1st
