In this episode we talk about how Adora West, MSW went from nursing, to social work, to financial social work and being an entrepreneur. 

We talk about her journey through social work, hear about her career as a hospital social worker in Miami, and even about a client who attempted suicide and how she was able to be with him through his physical and mental recovery. 

Currently, she uses her own experience of struggling with student loans, mortgage, a baby, and limited pay in her job to motivate her to make massive changes in her own personal life. She is turning her struggles into ways she helps others while also running her own business.

She is now able to help clients in a way that is often overlooked in the field of social work. Hear how she uses her skills and education in social work to help her clients get out of debt, fix their credit, and achieve their goals.

If you have student loan debt, are feeling stuck, or are open to new ways for using your social work skills then this episode is for you.

Her top quote: "Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn." by Ben Franklin
