• 427 - I Found Her $16489 in Scholarship Opportunities & You Could Be Next!
    Oct 3 2025

    I personally found my client over $16,489 worth of scholarship opportunities, pertaining to her major, hobbies, age, interests, etc. (Wanna be next!?!?) We’ll highlight opportunities like a Disney scholarship, a unique award for book lovers, and even a fun option connected to ice cream! Along the way, we’ll talk about how to make college more affordable while still supporting your academic success! Also...

    What if you were handed a list of scholarships that were tailor-made for you? What if you didn't even have to search for them because I did it for you?

    This is possible! I myself graduated from college debt-free with over $10k leftover in my bank account and was able to completely pay for college without my parents help or working full time all throughout college. Why? Because I know how to search for scholarships like nobody's business!

    That's why I created the FREE (yes, free!) Scholarship Strategy Session, where I learn about your plans for school, and we make a plan on scholarships I’ll find for you to apply for. I want to get you the most $ possible so you can have the most stress-free, and potentially debt-free, college experience.

    Then after this free zoom call, you can choose whether you'd like to hire me. HEAD TO… calendly.com/moneyandmentalpeace and go check it out today!

    LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

    Grab your cold brew and TI-89, because class is now in session!
