It’s time to create a plan of action for Brad and Becca’s unsophisticated spending habits that we learned about in part one.
I want to get them away from the gimmicks of monthly payments and immediate gratification, and instead push them to carve out a Rich Life vision that goes beyond getting to zero debt. There will be resistance. The question is, will Brad be willing to lean into it, even if it’s uncomfortable to hear?
