WOW Story: Turning Setbacks into Comebacks

Peninsula Financial Coaching

When financial struggles start to pile up, it can feel like there’s no way out. One of our members found themselves drowning in high-interest loans, each monthly payment eating away at their ability to get ahead. They were managing multiple debts, but instead of making progress, they were stuck—barely keeping up with the minimum payments and seeing little relief.

Desperate for a change, they turned to PCU. Our lending team sat down with them, carefully reviewed their situation, and created a plan. By refinancing their loans into a single, lower-interest loan, we helped them consolidate their debt into one manageable payment. The result? They saved hundreds of dollars each month—money that was now going toward building a savings cushion instead of being lost to high-interest payments.

For the first time in years, they could breathe. With a realistic budget and a clear path forward, they finally felt in control of their financial future. What started as an overwhelming burden became an opportunity for growth. They’ve since started setting aside money each month and are working toward long-term financial goals that once seemed out of reach. This is what we do at PCU—turn financial setbacks into comebacks.
