The Bankruptcy Files

The Bankruptcy Files is a smart, compassionate podcast about debt, money, and second chances—hosted by South Carolina attorney Lauren Clark. Each episode breaks down what bankruptcy really looks like, busts common myths, and explains the process in plain English so people can feel informed instead of ashamed. Lauren explores the topics that matter most: what to expect, what’s true (and what isn’t), and why bankruptcy is a fresh start—not a failure. Episodes include attorney interviews, reactions to public Reddit posts and online questions, real-world scenarios, and conversations about how bankruptcy and debt appear in pop culture—from celebrity filings to reality TV. The Bankruptcy Files is for anyone who feels overwhelmed by debt, curious about bankruptcy, or simply wants to understand how the system actually works—without judgment or jargon. For educational and empowerment purposes only. Not legal advice.
