Trish's Debt Spiral: From Personal Trainer to Recovery Warrior

Spending gave Trish a high unlike any other. With her credit cards, she could have all the things she saw the affluent women have, like fashionable clothes and shoes.
What happens when a personal trainer, who seems to have it all, finds herself drowning in debt? Trish, once a successful personal trainer, shares her gripping story on Steppin' Out Radio. Despite earning good money, Trish's desire for a lavish lifestyle led her to max out credit cards, racking up thousands in debt. The thrill of spending was intoxicating, but the reality check was harsh.
Imagine feeling ashamed when your younger siblings, who managed their finances well, offer to bail you out. Trish hit rock bottom when she had to survive on just $1.65 a day. In this episode, she opens up about her battle with shame, the turning point that made her seek help, and how 12-step programs played a crucial role in her recovery. Trish also delves into the importance of setting boundaries, the spiritual aspects of her journey, and mending broken relationships.
Her story is a testament to the fact that addiction can touch anyone, but with the right support and resources, recovery is within reach. Tune in to hear Trish's inspiring journey from debt to recovery.
