011: Is There Really Such a Thing as ‘Good’ Debt‪?‬ Loving Money: the Podcast with Leisse Wilcox

Question: Do we think shaming people about going into debt is going to help anyone?
…that’s NO for me. 🙅‍♀️
In this week’s podcast episode we’re diving into a topic that weighs heavy on a lot of us - especially right now - debt.
Having debt on its own can feel intimidating.
Add on how much it costs to live, how few women make $100K+, then the public message of shaming debt as a whole, and it actually makes me angry.
Women in particular are shamed for carrying debt - even when that “debt” is being used as investment in their Self or business.
So this week on Loving Money, we’re changing that stigma - period!
Not all debt is bad…
In fact, a lot of the debt we accrue is necessary for modern life
Cars and homes are necessities…and I know I’m not the only one uses a credit card just to buy groceries and fill up the gas tank!

At the end of the day we all have to learn the difference between good and “bad” debt, and how we can make more money to live a lifestyle that isn’t rooted in just trying to survive.
Women are conditioned from girlhood to play it safe and not take risks - and that carries on into how we make decisions for our future, our dreams, and the vision we have for our lives.
“Playing it safe” is a story we tell ourselves that becomes a limiting belief that can hold us back from reaching our own potential - and success.
We all deserve ease and joy in our lives, the kind that comes from financial security - it’s entirely possible for you too!
One way to get out (and stay out) of debt is to more money (duh) 💰
But making more money comes down to knowing one important thing…
Your worth 👸
This week on the podcast I’m sharing my (cough, strong) feelings on debt; if you’re feeling financial stuck, you definitely need to check it out if you’re feeling stuck financially.
I am on a mission to get at least a million more dollars into the hands of entrepreneurial women - every year - which is a driving force behind my business.
