with guest Alison Williams, Christians Against Poverty (CAP)
Getting lost in debt can feel like a shameful thing. Yet many Canadians face the hardships of financial struggle every day. How can we break the cycle of shame to open these discussions and ask for help?
As the former Managing Director & Global Head of Strategy and Business Management for BMO Capital Markets, Allison Williams knows a thing or two about money. Now the board chair of Christians Against Poverty, Allison is using her extensive financial experience to help the underserved reclaim their lives by getting out of unmanageable debt.
In this episode, Allison breaks down how the budgeting processes that make your eyes glaze over can actually be made simple and life-giving through the power of community, as well as offering practical tips for Canadians heading into tax season. When it comes to debt, a holistic approach can make all the difference.
