Episode 5 // Doubling Down On Daunting Debt

Championed by our friends at Community Futures Manitoba

Do you get a lump in your throat anytime people talk about debt? You’re not alone.

In this episode of The Gab Lab, NTN Pro, Pamela Meger, Senior Vice President, MNP Ltd., does a deep dive into debt (we see you cringing ); because the first step to managing debt is to confront it. Debt can feel like a never-ending black hole. But today, we learn taking action and ownership of your numbers will help you find the way out!


As Founders, optimism is entrenched in our DNA. It also tends to be embedded in our financial forecasts. We budget for things to go well, but forget to account for hidden expenses (i.e. interest charges) or prepare for inevitable down turns and dry spells. That’s why today, we uncover the costs and consequences of debt so you can plan to get yourself out of the hole and into a better financial position.


Give this episode a listen so you can take your first step toward getting rid of daunting debt!
