In today's episode, I sit down with Barry Levine, a bankruptcy lawyer with more than 40 years of experience, to talk about what really happens when people file for bankruptcy. We break down the fear and confusion around money problems and explain how bankruptcy can be a tool to get a fresh start. I also share my own story of going through bankruptcy in my 20s and what I learned from it. Barry gives simple, honest advice on what to expect, how the process works, and why it’s not the end of the world.

About our guest:
Barry Levine is a Massachusetts-based bankruptcy attorney with more than 30 years of experience helping individuals and small business owners through financial crisis. Known for his calm, practical approach, he guides clients who feel scared, overwhelmed, and out of options to understand the system, explore their choices, and find a clear path forward.

Barry believes fear, not just debt, is what keeps people stuck. His role is to bring order to the chaos by applying decades of legal expertise to restore stability and control. With a career that began in a hands-on Boston office during law school, he has built a practice that is detail-oriented, outcome-focused, and always grounded in compassion.
