I decided to announce the June Challenge a little bit early to give you some prep time.
Choose ONE debt and pay it off!
That’s it. Now I know you are saying, but all my debt balances are too high, I’ve already paid off my little ones. I get that.
But my challenge to you is to think outside the box on ways you can just go at it. Kind of like the cats in this video (doesn’t everyone like cat videos)…just attack!
If you are in, share your debt below…and maybe some out of the box ideas you have for throwing some additional money at it this month. And then every week we can hold each other accountable as to what we have done that’s extra and how we are doing in just killing this ONE debt…
Are you with me? Share your debt below and let’s go. June starts Saturday, so you’ve got this week to think on it and prepare.
Hope is a resourceful, solutions-driven online business manager with over two decades of experience helping clients streamline operations, manage projects, and grow their businesses through digital marketing and technology.
But life has a way of rewriting your plans.
A year ago, Hope made the decision to move in with her aging parents full time – a season she wouldn’t trade, even as it came with its own financial and emotional weight. Earlier this year, she lost her mother, and is now walking the tender, disorienting path of grief while learning what “forward” looks like from here.
Hope came to the Blogging Away Debt community in 2015 as a single mom raising five foster and adoptive children. She’s written through job changes, financial setbacks, and the bittersweet transition to an empty nest. Her kids are finding their footing in the world now – and so is she.
Rooted in faith and fueled by the same perseverance she’s brought to every hard season, Hope is ready to face her finances with fresh eyes and an honest pen. She believes that clarity, courage, and community can change the trajectory of anyone’s story including her own.
She lives in Austin, TX with her dad, loves adventures with her dog Addie, and is figuring out, one step at a time, what this next chapter is meant to be.
I want to pay off this one loan that recently came off my collections on my credit report….it is only 402. So hoping I can take care of it once and for all and it has to be paid all together no payment plans for this one.
Awesome! We are dealing with payment plans for Sea Cadet now. I’m grateful for them in these circumstances but certainly drag it out.
$350 credit card debt
That’s a great goal!!!
What’s the amount of the CC debt you want to pay down?
I think the balance is right around $2300 right now. I will have that in my debt update next week. (It’s been on ice for just at a month now since I switch to cash only during the week.)
Hope,
I’m with you for June. I’m going to try to make an extra $1,000. I have one small medical debt of around $250 that I want to pay off.
Interested in the amount you are hoping to pay off on your credit card this month!

Great goal! So if your goal debt is just $250 what will you do with the extra $750 you are GOING to make?
