Are you worried about how to pay for college? Stressed because it’s so expensive? Are you having trouble finding scholarships, or all you find don’t apply to you? Overwhelmed with all things school and money?

Welcome fam! This podcast will help you find and get scholarships, avoid student loans and maybe even graduate college debt-free!

Hey! I’m Kara, a Christian entrepreneur, amateur snowboarder, and scholarship BEAST! I figured out how to not only finish college debt-free, but I even had $10k left over in the bank after graduation. (& btw, my parents weren’t able to help me financially either!)

During school, I was worried about paying for next semester. I couldn’t find scholarships that worked specifically for me and didn’t know how to get started while juggling homework and keeping up with ALL.THE.THINGS.

But dude, I learned there was a better way! With God’s direction I tested out of classes and found the perfect scholarships, grants, internships, and weird budget hacks that helped me go from overwhelmed to debt-free with $10,000 leftover in the bank after graduation-–all with God on my side.

... and I’m here to walk you through this, too. You'll no longer have to wonder how to afford college!

If you are ready to find scholarships specific to you, learn to manage your money well, and have enough money to kill it at college, this pod is for you!

So grab your cold brew and TI-89, and listen in on the most stress-free and debt-free class you’ve ever attended: this is Money and Mental Peace.

This podcast dives into the real-world journey of pursuing a debt-free degree—whether you’re in high school exploring dual enrollment and college scholarships, or a graduate student seeking out scholarships for women, STEM scholarships, or funding strategies for advanced degrees. We cover everything from using the net price calculator and tools like MyIntuition to understand true college costs, to applying for college grants such as the Pell Grant through the FAFSA.

Listeners will also find budgeting tips and strategies inspired by Dave Ramsey, including insights from Financial Peace University, Ramsey Solutions, and the EveryDollar app. We’ll explore practical ways to save money, build a college fund through a 529 plan, and weigh options like college student loans, the Parent PLUS Loan, federal student loans, or even private student loans. Along the way, we share proven approaches to scholarship strategy and highlight scholarship search engines like ScholarshipOwl and Scholarships360 that can simplify the hunt.
