Welcome to Adulting and Afraid, the podcast that helps you figure out life one real conversation at a time. Hosted by Deborah, the Mortgage Queen, this show connects young adults with professionals and community leaders who share the lessons, tips, and experiences you didn’t get in school.
Whether it’s money, careers, housing, relationships, or just learning how to handle adulthood, we’re here to make the scary parts feel possible, and even exciting. Because adulting doesn’t have to be perfect… it just has to start. You can be an adult, and not be afraid!
