Our Approach
At UnDEBTfeated, we pride ourselves on being the very best in the debt constraint prevention game, which is why we don't label ourselves as just another financial literacy brand, but instead a financial intervention enterprise.
Our workshops are rooted in transparent, no-holds-barred money management and behavior modification guidance that defies outdated conventional rhetoric to inspire fresh outcomes. With true individual wellness (not protecting corporate interests) being our top priority, our coaching model is designed to help our audiences make the best plays possible to dominate their financial futures.
It's Time for Something New
Despite financial literacy skyrocketing as a mainstream buzzword amid more attention from politicians, celebrities and entertainers, key indicators of financial health continue to trend in the wrong direction.
Today’s teens are being exploited by BNPL (Buy Now Pay Later) platforms, credit card companies and higher ed lending servicers at record rates.
Couples are increasingly citing excessive debt as their reason behind delaying homebuying, marrying and starting/expanding their families.
The growing unaffordability of basic living expenses by the masses due to debt overwhelm has become a commercial punchline.
Traditional financial education all too often misses the mark on how to solve for the above by focusing solely on debt management after the damage has already been done—or even has an ulterior motive to keep audiences trapped in a “borrow to live” cycle to encourage indefinite debt dependency.
UnDEBTfeated is boldly and unapologetically disrupting these norms to breathe new life into the future of financial empowerment from the inside out.
