Shame about debt


Hi Brooke! First off, I’m taking your money course and it’s helping me so much. I’ve already improved my mindset. I have a lot of debt and I’m trying to find some neutral thoughts that I believe to go in a positive debt model. I still feel a lot of shame about my debt. I’d like to feel empowered to create more value to pay if off. Do you have any suggestions or good feeling thoughts for debt mindset beginners. Kinda like the body ‘ i have a body ‘ I want to find something I can believe.
