Most people think debt forgiveness is the finish line.For Daquarii, it was just the beginning. After getting $165,000 in student loans forgiven, she expected to feel free, but what happens when the debt is gone and purpose is still missing? In this episode of The Real Wealth Formula Podcast, host Brad Hovis sits down with Daquarii to uncover what financial freedom really looks like after the weight of debt disappears. Together, they dive into the emotional and practical side of money, rebuilding income, confidence, and purpose after years of financial pressure. This conversation reveals the other side of becoming debt-free: the mindset, meaning, and daily habits that lead to lasting freedom, not just relief. If you’ve ever thought “I should feel free by now,” this episode will change how you see financial success.   💡 Key Takeaways Debt-free doesn’t always mean free. Freedom without purpose can feel empty. Financial freedom requires rebuilding mindset and mission. Underemployment is often a mindset before it’s a money problem. The real goal isn’t debt forgiveness — it’s life transformation. 🔗 Resources and Links Mentioned REIBIZ: reibiz.comFreedomSoft: realwealthformula.com/sponsorsPropStream: realwealthformula.com/sponsors   🤝 Connect With Us Website: www.realwealthformula.comPhone: 877-77-MOGULEmail: podcast@realwealthformula.com 📱 Social Media Channels Facebook: Real Wealth FormulaLinkedIn: Real Wealth FormulaInstagram: @realwealthformulaX (Twitter): @realwealthshowTikTok: @realwealthformulaYouTube: Real Wealth Formula   ⏳ Chapters 00:00 – Introductions01:30 – Meet Daquarii04:00 – Teaching, Contracts, and Life on the Road07:00 – “Gainfully Underemployed”10:00 – Breaking Down the Budget13:00 – The Hidden Cost of Comfort16:00 – Facing Debt with Honesty20:00 – The Turning Point: $165,000 Forgiven23:00 – Processing the Miracle26:00 – The Emotional Aftermath30:00 – What Happens After the Win33:00 – Redefining Financial Freedom37:00 – The Purpose Gap41:00 – From Forgiveness to Foundation45:00 – The Real Wealth Conversation49:00 – Faith, Identity, and Purpose Alignment53:00 – Real Wealth Rating & Reflection57:00 – Closing Thoughts
