Erica Wade brings the “hustle” when it comes to kicking debt’s butt and she shares her journey with us on the His & Her Money Show.
As Erica shared, she was always interested in budgeting, but listening to the His & Her Money pushed her into action. With the steps, stories, and motivation that we shared in each episode, Erica was able to create a debt-tackling plan that crushed different types of debt, from dental expenses to taxes.
With less than $4K in debt left until she hits debt freedom, Erica shares the strategies she used to climb that mountain of debt, particularly the “hustle” part of the equation.
She shares how she handled the money from all of her side hustles and why she has a “treat yourself” account in her budget to make sure she uses self-care within her debt journey.
At the same time, Erica also sees beyond her current hustle and shares that future with us in the episode.
Unlike many of the “side hustle” articles on the Internet, you need a plan for what you will do in the long term. Erica has that plan and shares how she plans on using it to grow her debt-free lifestyle into wealth.
Besides “hustle muscle”, Erica also has a strong “budget muscle” that allowed her to cut debt while enjoying her life every step of the way.
Tune in if you are ready to hear how Erica slashed her debt, built a mini side hustle empire, and live a financially disciplined life that inspires others while treating yourself at the same time.
