"I was able to pay off over $50,000 of the debt I had been struggling with for the last 7 years"
After surviving stage 3B colon cancer and facing $175,000 in medical debt, Vickie used the program's tools to reframe her hopelessness. Within four months, unexpected funds helped them pay off over $50,000, transforming their retirement outlook from impossible to achievable within five years.
Before this program, I felt like I was never going to be able to retire. I have been on a cancer survival journey for the last 7 years and survived stage 3B colon cancer. Unfortunately, I had so much debt (over $175,000) that I had incurred in order to pay for cancer treatments that I felt like I would have to work until I'm 70 to pay off the debt before being able to retire. I was so overwhelmed and struggling to stay positive and upbeat.
Thanks to this class, I was reminded of many tools I had learned in the past and also provided many new tools to reframe my hopelessness. To believe that I am worthy and to recalibrate my desires and goals.
During the last 4 months, I had multiple unexpected changes and funds arrive. I was able to pay off over $50,000 of the debt I had been struggling with for the last 7 years and now I only owe $20,000 of the original $175,000. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and I'm able to visualize retiring in less than 5 years - before I turn 65.
