From a young age, her finances were controlled by her parents, leading to shame, secrecy, and a mountain of debt that impacted her own family. Hiding the truth from her partner, friends, and colleagues, she felt trapped and powerless as her financial situation spiralled. A year ago, she made the courageous decision to take back control. Tune in to hear her inspiring story of resilience, recovery, and the path to financial freedom.
