Are you or a loved one in credit card debt? Then this episode is for you.
I sat down with debt journalists Jamie Feldman and Rachel Gayle Webster to discuss the biggest finding from their year-long investigation into America’s $2.27T credit card debt crisis. They host the award winning podcast Debt Heads, which chronicles their investigation in debt. And the villain isn’t who you think.
We cover:
- Why the economy literally depends on you staying in debt
- The 1978 Supreme Court decision that created America's debt crisis (Marquette National Bank of Minneapolis v. First of Omaha Service Corp.)
- Why the "get out of debt" industry needs you to stay in debt
- How your childhood shapes your relationship with money before you were old enough to know it
- The hidden connection between debt, shame, and belonging
- How to stop blaming yourself and start seeing the full picture
If this resonated, please share it with someone who is on their unshaming journey.

Do you have sex/intimacy issues? Then this episode is for you.
I was in a sexless relationship with my dream man. For years, I couldn’t understand what I did wrong, until this conversation. I sat down with Ian Kerner, sex expert and licensed psychotherapist specializing in sex. He’s the author of the New York Times best-selling book She Comes First (Harper Collins) which has changed so many of friend’s sex lives. But I discovered through his last book which really changed my outlook on sex. It’s called So Tell Me About the Last Time You Had Sex.
We cover:
The #1 sex issue couples face
Why porn might actually be a good thing
How to build your sexual intelligence
Why most of us go into sex only 50% aroused
How to talk to your partner about sex when shame makes it feel impossible
Why men in their 20s have more ED than men in their 50s and 60s
How to fix your sex issues
