“I used to dread paying bills, now I look forward to it! I never thought I would say those words! Maria’s coaching is life changing!” -Lilah Reyes
“Thanks to CIOC I have received an awareness of the behaviors that were driving my poor spending habits as well as a newfound sense of empowerment. I am learning to celebrate what might appear to be small victories to some but they are huge to me! I am able to pay my rent weeks in advance, no longer overthink when it comes to paying bills, and have finally (13 years later) started making consistent payments on my student loans! I no longer dodge bill collectors…I answer my phone without fear and no longer need to make up lies or excuses! I am fighting back tears as I type because this workshop has restored my ability to dream. Although I will face challenges I am a different person than I was when I started and know that I will handle those challenges and continue to more towards our goal to be DEBT FREE!” – Emtesha Newble
