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 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.

  • 432 - I Found Her Over $19,800 in Scholarships & You Could Be Next!
    Oct 30 2025

    I personally found my client over $19,800 worth of scholarship opportunities, pertaining to her major, hobbies, age, interests, etc. (Wanna be next!?!?)

    What if you were handed a list of scholarships that were tailor-made for you?

    What if you didn't even have to search for them because I did it for you?

    This is possible! I myself graduated from college debt-free with over $10k leftover in my bank account, and was able to completely pay for college without my parents help or working full time all throughout college. Why? Because I know how to search for scholarships like nobody's business!

    That's why I created the FREE (yes, free!) Scholarship Strategy Session, where I learn about your plans for school, and we make a plan on scholarships I’ll find for you to apply for. I want to get you the most $ possible so you can have the most stress-free, and potentially debt-free, college experience.

    Then after this free zoom call, you can choose whether you'd like to hire me.

    SO HEAD TO… calendly.com/moneyandmentalpeace and go check it out today!

    LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

    Grab your cold brew and TI-89, because class is now in session!

    ** Find God's Path for College and Graduate Loan and Debt-Free **

    Do you want guidance on where to go and what to study… wonder if you should change majors? Do you find yourself up late at night searching for scholarships, and ways to pay for college without parental help? Do you wake up worried about everything, and just want to make sure you’re following God’s plan for your life?

    In this podcast for Christian college girls, you will learn to find GOD’S path for your college journey, and graduate with no loans or debt!

    I get it! It is so tough doing things the world‘s way, when everybody else is doing life without God and in their own strength, making poor choices, and taking out loans. So, if you’re ready to stop dreading making decisions, and find EASY solutions to help you pay for college while following His path for your life, this podcast is for you!

    Hey there! I’m Kara Walker, a twenty-something entrepreneur, amateur snowboarder, recovering over-achiever, and debt-free college graduate. In college, I too was a stressed college student, looking for money and mental peace. I wondered if there were other ways to pay for college besides loans, and wished for clear direction on how to make college and career decisions! Not only was I worried about drowning in debt, but also afraid I hadn’t heard Jesus correctly. Was I studying the wrong thing? Was I completely off track?

    I felt semi-out of control and was spiraling, until I learned how to hear from God and follow His direction. He guided me and gave me the stepping stones to pay for college. Scholarships, grants, testing out of classes, and other weird school hacks got me through debt-free!

    And, I’m here to teach you HOW to do this, too.

    If you are ready to find answers about your future, have an intimate and fruitful relationship with Jesus, 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.
