139: Breaking Down Bankruptcy with Bankruptcy Attorney, Adrienne Hines

In this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast, Paige is breaking down bankruptcy with Ohio bankruptcy attorney, Adrienne Hines. Bankruptcy is a financial tool that many know little about, is greatly misunderstood, and is clouded in shame, guilt, and judgement. This stops many people from considering it as an option to receive a fresh start along their financial journey. Adrienne Hines is on a mission to change that and her mission is to transform bankruptcy from a daunting word to a powerful tool for financial wellness and deliver debt relief with dignity to her audience.
