114 - Bending the Culture of Student Loans (with Kristina Ellis)

Apr 27

In today's episode, host Travis Shelton sits down with Kristina Ellis, who is the newest personality at Ramsey Solutions. Kristina has an amazing story, which includes earning $500,000 of scholarships that propelled her to attend her dream college debt-free. This impacted her life so much she ultimately committed her career to helping others do this money and college stuff better. She is the author of two books (linked below) and has spent much of the last decade speaking to and working with young people to approach college in a better way. We discuss our culture's toxic college-at-any-cost mindset, how student debt is crippling this entire generation, and how we as students/parents can take a better path. We're grateful for Kristina taking the time to join us, and hope this conversation adds value to your journey. Whether you're a teenager, parent, expecting parent, or someday parent, this episode has some tangible takeaways for you. As always, we'd love to hear your feedback and questions!
