Hosting Today: I'm Ashley Patrick, ex detective turned debt-free CEO of my very own business and stay at home mom of three. Not too long ago, my dreams of staying at home with my kids seemed impossible. I thought I'd have to stay miserable in a high stress demanding job, just so I could retire someday. After gaining the confidence in my own ability to manage my family's finances and a simple step-by-step plan to make it happen, I was able to pay off $45,000 in just 17 months, which then allowed me to finally quit my job, stay at home with my kids, and build a debt-free business. Now, my mission is to help moms like you conquer debt and free themselves from the mental load of handling their family's finances. “Whatever it is for you, whatever thing you're struggling with and spending on, make an intentional effort to change that specific behavior. You get to decide what it is, what it looks like, and what you are doing based on what you need to work on and what you need help with.” - Ashley Patrick Wondering why your budget always seems out of control?
