(& btw, my parents weren’t able to help me financially either!) During school, I was worried about paying for next semester. I couldn’t find scholarships that worked specifically for me, and didn’t know how to get started while juggling homework and keeping up with ALL.THE.THINGS.  But dude, I learned there was a better way! With God’s direction I tested out of classes and found the perfect scholarships, grants, internships, and weird budget hacks that helped me go from overwhelmed to debt-free with $10,000 leftover in the bank after graduation-–all with God on my side. ... and I’m here to walk you through this, too.  If you are ready to find scholarships specific to you, learn to manage your money well, and have enough money to kill it at college, this pod is for you!  So grab your cold brew and TI-89, and listen in on the most stress-free and debt-free class you’ve ever attended: this is Money and Mental Peace.  WANT ME TO FIND YOU UP TO $30,000 IN SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES!? --> https://calendly.com/moneyandmentalpeace Facebook --> Christian College Girl Community - Scholarships & Graduate Debt-Free - https://www.facebook.com/groups/734349047530666 Connect --> info@moneyandmentalpeace.com Instagram --> @moneyandmentalpeace - https://www.instagram.com/moneyandmentalpeace/ 𝑺𝒐, 𝒉𝒐𝒘 𝒅𝒐 𝑰 𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒑 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒈𝒆𝒕 𝒔𝒄𝒉𝒐𝒍𝒂𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒑𝒂𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒈𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒔𝒕𝒖𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒍𝒐𝒂𝒏𝒔? 👇 This podcast dives into the real-world journey of pursuing a debt-free degree—whether you’re in high school exploring dual enrollment and college scholarships, or a graduate student seeking out scholarships for women, STEM scholarships, or funding strategies for advanced degrees.

I couldn’t find scholarships that worked specifically for me, and didn’t know how to get started while juggling homework and keeping up with ALL.THE.THINGS. But dude, I learned there was a better way!

If you are ready to find scholarships specific to you, learn to manage your money well, and have enough money to kill it at college, this pod is for you!
