Personal debt hits us all. What can you do to overcome it and break the cycle? How can you finally reach financial freedom?

Like many in my generation, I fell into the trap-cars, loans, credit cards, house payments, and all the stress that came with them. The arguments over money, the sleepless nights, the feeling that freedom was always out of reach-I've lived it all.

What changed my life was not just numbers on a spreadsheet, but learning to understand my emotional spending habits. Along the way, I leaned on the principles made popular by Dave Ramsey while also finding my own path-one built on trial, error, and small victories that led to lasting change.

Emotional Spending is not a financial manual. It's a story-of mistakes, setbacks, and eventually, success. Inside you'll find reflections on credit cards, student loans, car payments, even timeshares, plus the lessons I learned about budgeting, relationships, and finding joy along the way.

If you've ever tuned in to a Dave Ramsey debt-free scream and thought, ""I want that to be me,"" this book is for you. My hope is that my story can provide the same motivation those calls once gave me.

It can be done. Debt can be defeated. And along the way, you'll learn that financial freedom isn't just about money-it's about living with purpose.

A native of New Hampshire, Jonathan finds continued inspiration from time spent in the Seacoast, Lakes Region, White Mountains, and the Great North Woods. He hopes his stories serve a purpose and provide an escape or reprieve for those that need one. When he is not brainstorming or writing his next novel, he is either exploring country roads, traveling the world, or is busy teaching math.
