For years, I believed my student loans were proof that I had failed, that I'd made the wrong choices or somehow fallen behind everyone else. The deeper I looked, the more I realized my story wasn't unique. In this episode of "Crayons in My Manuscript," I explore the shame that often surrounds student debt, what changed when I stopped carrying it alone, and why the stories we tell ourselves can become heavier than the debt itself, and can impact out writing.
This isn't financial advice. Instead, it's a personal essay about identity, isolation, and discovering that some burdens become lighter when we realize they're shared. If you've ever felt alone because of debt, disappointment, or the sense that everyone else figured life out before you, I hope this conversation reminds you that you're not as alone as you think.
