Couple Money Podcast

Are you looking for a way to stay motivated with your goals for the year? Michelle Jackson walks us through how vision boards can help you achieve more! 

How to Use Vision Boards to Achieve More

t's the second day of the 2017 and I'm betting that you're probably flooded with a ton of goal setting tips, hacks, and trips.

On one hand, I think taking a step back and having some clarity on what you want to accomplish is a wonderful first step, but I'm not a New Year's Resolutions woman.

Whenever you decide to build your marriage and wealth, go for it.

However with so many people's attention focused on goals I think now's a good opportunity to jump-start things.

So for today's episode we're going to be focused on that first-step – defining your what and why for the year. And my guest for today is Michelle Jackson, host of Girl Gone Frugal, creator of Colorado Love Hub, and Shop My Closet Project.

She's also the co-founder of the New Year, New You Financial Summit. We're going to talk a little about how you can achieve more using Vision boards.

Today Michelle Jackson, creator Michelle is Money Hungry, is here to discuss:

  • what vision boards are and how they can help you
  • how to create a productive vision board
  • setting yourself up for success

Stressed and overwhelmed by debt? Learn how you can rebuild your finances and life. Miss Mazuma shares how she overcame $500k of debt, short sales, and found happiness!  

Rebuild Your Finances

It's the beginning of a new year and while so many right now are all jazzed up about knocking down their debts, saving more, or spending less, that enthusiasm will die down.

And if you still have a huge amount of debt or just a big goal you want to tackle when that happens, you can discourage. And in some cases, understandably depressed.

It's normal.

But what do you then?

How can you stay focused and climb out?

Today's guest, Miss Mazuma, is kind and brave enough to share her story. In this episode we get into:

  • how she got into so much debt,
  • have a look into the painful and frustrating process of a short sale
  • see how she work through this and came to a healthier spot

Her story is both encouraging and real.

If you want to hear from someone else who has dug out from a mountain of debt, please check out my interview with Toni Husbands. She shares how she and her husband got on the same page and paid off over $100,000 of debt.
