Raising kids is no joke. Doing it while you’re newly divorced AND the sole breadwinner almost feels impossible. But we do it. We make sacrifices and do what we can to take care of our kids. And let’s be real, a lot of the time it’s pretty humbling. So when life throws us curveballs, it’s tough to keep up, especially financially.

Like when I found out my cell phone was going to be cut off,

I felt like my only lifeline to my daughter was being taken away and that could NOT happen. Luckily I had Empower which was like having money at my fingertips. I remembered I recently qualified for a $200 Cash Advance. More money than before and now I know it was for a reason.

With that $200 and the $10 I had in my account, I was able to pay my $206 bill. Just like that the hopelessness I felt was gone. So if you don’t believe in “ask and you shall receive”, this is your sign.
