Show Notes

There were many times in my life when I needed to put my game face on because I gotta pay a huge amount of debt. 

My biggest, most challenging story with debt happened when I lost my dad at 22. 

He spent two months in the ICU, and his meds were costing us at least $800 a day. 

My mom worked hard day and night to care for him, I went out and made as much money as I could, and we borrowed from so many people. 

Unfortunately, after all of that work, my dad passed away. 

We experienced a loss much bigger than money. 

Losing my dad was one of the most painful moments of my life. So painful it even dwarfed the fact that I owed over $60,000 USD (3 million pesos) when I was barely making $1,000 a month that time. 

So I got to work right away, did my best to support my family, became a breadwinner at 22, and paid off that debt like my life depended on it. 

And my, I learned a lot. Every debt that came after that was child’s game. And, along the way, I learned lessons on how to manage debt, investment, and revenue generation. 

Join me as I shared my best mindset shifts, practical lessons, and strategies to get over a huge debt. 

One day you might need it. :)
