Teri Slater has helped high achievers overcome shame, guilt and overwhelm with their finances as a financial coach since 2008. Despite her finance degree however, she and her former husband used credit cards as an extension of their incomes to buy lifestyle and happiness. After a "line in the sand moment", Teri ditched over $200,000 in debt, the mindsets that got her there and eventually the marriage. She discovered a more profound approach and joy in helping others overcome debt and create more confidence on their financial journeys.
