193. “I’ve filed for bankruptcy twice. Will I ever stop spending?” (Part 1)

  • Summary

  • Despite their best intentions, LaKiesha (38) and James (45) have fallen into a cycle of overspending—convincing themselves that wants are needs and that enjoying money now outweighs planning for the future. Their lack of financial foresight has left them without a safety net, and the weight of their debts has even led LaKiesha to file for bankruptcy. Recently, they moved in together; but with that fresh start comes the baggage of their complicated financial pasts. Trust has been tested, and they’re being forced to confront their differences in financial values and upbringing. Can they break free from the habits that have kept them stuck?
