211. How to Pay Off Credit Card Debt

Financial Feminist · 2025-01-30

If you’ve been struggling to break free from credit card debt––you’re in the right place. In this episode, I’m diving deep into one of the most commonly requested topics: the ins and outs of credit card debt. We’ll uncover how sneaky interest rates can chip away at your hard-earned money every single day and explore powerful strategies to help you tackle that high-interest debt so you can finally breathe easy. As someone who’s dedicated to helping women save money, invest, and feel financially confident, I firmly believe that understanding your debt is the first crucial step in breaking free from it. When we take back control of our finances, we collectively fight the patriarchy—by making ourselves richer, savvier, and fully in control of our money.
