A few weeks ago I shared the before and afters from a closet makeover that I recently worked on and the some of the details about my client, a self-professed Shopaholic. After I published the post I received great feedback via email, blog comments, and facebook comments (thank you) which really made my client feel good about the progress that she made. Many of you wanted to know more about how she prepared to let go and start the organizing process so I interviewed her after our last session and I hope you can relate to her through her answers.
When did you realize you needed help curbing your shopping addictions?
“I’ve had a shopping problem all my life and I was always bailed out by my parents. There have been three instances that they had to pay my credit card balances of over $30,000 when I wasn’t able to. When they passed away they left me a significant amount of money. I thought it would last forever but about four years ago my financial coach Tari Vickery from Life Matters Financial Group made me realize that wasn’t the case. She looked over my net worth and my financial habits and told me that I only had 2 years before I would be completely broke if I didn’t change my habits.”
