Debt and guilt go hand-in-hand—and not in a good way. In this episode of the Get Out of Debt Guy podcast, Steve (the original Get Out of Debt Guy) and Damon Day (the new Get Out of Debt Guy) dive into the toxic guilt that keeps people stuck in debt and making bad financial decisions.

From draining retirement accounts to hiding credit card debt with more debt, guilt can lead to a spiral of shame, silence, and survival-mode living.

Steve and Damon share their personal rock-bottom moments—from cold postal Jeeps to garage-office dryers —and explain why guilt is not a financial strategy.

You’ll hear real talk about what actually works to get out of debt, how to flip the mental switch, and why sometimes “so what?” is the smartest thing you can say.

Whether you’re dealing with credit card debt, feeling overwhelmed, or just tired of hiding your financial reality, this episode is your permission to stop beating yourself up and start doing something different.
