Tuesday Truth: How I spent 15K in 5 months & my plan to fix it
Alright, Bleu Bells, let’s get real. My Tuesday Truth is this: In just 5 months, I spent $15,000 swiping my credit cards at Amazon, Target, Marshalls, Best Buy, Costco, and Rooms to Go. 😳 From moving into a new place to welcoming Sariah, I got caught up in the whirlwind of life, and, honestly, I didn’t even think twice—I just swiped and kept it moving.
Here’s the kicker: Before this, I had cleared all my debt in just 6 months. My credit score soared to over 800, and I secured $100,000 in credit. 💳 But let’s be honest—I fumbled the bag when life came at me fast. And you know what? This is my truth.
Motherhood, moving, and managing it all took a toll, and I made mistakes. But I’m here to own it. There are no excuses, just honesty.
Now, I’m committing to taking the entire year of 2025 to clear this debt and rebuild smarter and stronger. I’m ready to make better financial decisions and stick to a plan to get back on track.
💙 This is a no-judgment zone. If you’ve ever been in this situation or you’re facing it now, know—you’re not alone. It’s not about perfection; it’s about progress. Let’s hold each other accountable and work toward financial freedom together.
