Real Stories Ep 38: Budgeting for Hope: Nichelle and Oscar

  • April 15, 2023
  • By: GreenPath Financial Wellness

Today’s episode features two stories. We regularly talk with our clients at GreenPath to hear about their experiences in pursuing financial wellness. These voices are a reminder to others that when it comes to debt (and the stress it brings) you are never alone.

We begin the episode with Nichelle, a single mother who is working hard to balance everyday expenses with debt payoff. In the second half, we meet Oscar who shares how the Debt Management Plan has greatly reduced his stress.

We know that many of our listeners have already spoken to someone at GreenPath. Please consider sharing your story with others.
