“I was in control, they are in my corner. They kept me accountable for my followups and helped me keep my reminders alive when I forgot. I was thinking survival, now I can think of more.”
“I learned different ways to visualize the most important & least important things in my life. Then how to better decide where my money goes first.”
“They helped build my future and help create goals. I don’t have to face my financial challenges alone.”
