Monday I'm kicking off the Journey to Zero Challengeπ₯³. Five days, one short lesson a day, built for women who want an actual plan and don't have hours to go build one from scratch.
I already know what a lot of you are thinking when a challenge invite lands in your inbox: "I don't have time for this right now." So before anything else, let's deal with that, because it might be the only thing standing between you and a real answer to how you get out of debt. But first, a quick gut check.
If debt is the thing you're carrying, here's what this actually takes. Each day is one video, most of them under fifteen minutes, plus one small action you can do from your phone. You're not clearing your weekend for this. You're giving it the same fifteen minutes you'd hand to your phone before bed anyway. And you have access to the challenge content until the 16th in case you need to catch up. The part that surprises people is that pinning down that zero date is more impactful that the strategy alone. "I'll pay it off eventually" doesn't change behavior. "I'll be at zero by a specific month" does. Your brain treats those two sentences completely differently. One is a vague hope you can put off. The other is a target you start making decisions around, today. Krystina, who joined a past round of this challenge back in February, said the videos were encouraging and never made her feel shamed for where she was starting from. She used the Accelerator spreadsheet to find her exact Zero Date, October 2027, and kept going. ππ½ββοΈββ‘οΈ By spring, she'd paid off two credit cards and a handful of medical bills. When she updated her numbers, her Zero Date moved up seven months, to March 2027. She's now less than a year from zero. Watching that date get closer, not just the balance getting smaller, is what kept her going. That's what Monday's challenge will give you. Not a guilt trip about your spending. A real date, and a reason to believe it's coming.
Signup closes on Sunday. I don't say that to rush you, I say it because almost everyone I talk to who's paid off debt has the same regret: wishing they'd started sooner. I don't want that for you. If any part of you has been waiting for the right moment, this is it.

Hi! I'm Prisca, money coach for professional Millenial women
I help professional women balance their desire to enjoy life now with the need to save for the future without stressing over every dollar.
They say the first $100K is the hardest. I hit mine at 29, and I'm 36 now with about $570,000 invested. I shared the short version of how I got there in this quick video, and today I'm sharing the longer version with you. I didn't come from money, and early on I had no real plan. I cashed out my first 403(b) when I left that job, and for a while I put in about $100 a paycheck with no rhyme or reason, just because I knew I should be doing something. What got me from there to $100K was a...
I was recently featured in USA TODAY talking about 10 habits that can drive up your grocery bill and what you can do about them. Grocery spending is one of those budget categories that can change quickly. A few extra trips, more convenience foods, or buying things without a plan can add up before you realize it. And when groceries run over, that money has to come from somewhere else in your budget. If your grocery bill has been harder to manage lately, I think youβll find this article...
Thank you to everyone who joined The 3-Step Plan to Grow Your Savings Simply and Consistently live on Sunday. It meant a lot to have you there. I want to tell you why I put this together in the first place. Right now, everything feels more expensive. Groceries, gas, just about everything. And on top of that, there's constant talk about the economy, whether we're headed for a recession, what's coming next. It's a lot to carry, and it's easy to feel despondent about money when it seems like the...
