How I Increased My Credit Score From 471 to 700 in 12 Months (Solo Episode)

Blog post with all the show notes for this episode

On this solo episode of the podcast, I’m following up with part 2 of my own credit story as part of my Money Series.

If you missed it, please tune in to episode 159, which is the first part of this story where I share my struggles with managing money and credit and explain how these problems all started.

So many of you reached out to me saying you have experienced these issues too. I really hope this series helps even one person feel empowered to take control of your finances – it’s never too late!

In this episode I share:

The importance of changing your mindset around money and creating a money mindset of worth and confidence
Why I stopped calling myself ‘broke’ and became solution oriented
How to consolidate multiple debts into one payment to help you pay off debt
Getting student loans out of default with a customized payment plan
How to pull free credit reports
How I tackled all the derogatory accounts on my credit report
Utilizing Trello (a project management tool) to organize my debt and payments
Creating a side hustle just for paying off debt
The importance of having ‘debt’ to improve your credit score
How to get a credit card when you have terrible credit
Secured credit cards, what they are and how to use them responsibly
How to dispute old credit inquiries and remove them from your credit report

At the end of the episode, I also answer some questions you guys asked me about my credit journey.

If you’re enjoying this Money Series and want to hear from money experts on this podcast, please reach out and let me know!

Financial management is wellness, too!
