In today’s episode, we answer an anonymous question. Our listener says she finds our podcast and workshops very helpful but wishes her female friends and family would be equally keen to discuss money matters. Broaching the topic of money can feel tricky, so I invited Wealth Coach Sara Maxwell to discuss how to best open up the conversation in a positive and uncontentious way.
Today on The Wallet:
1/ For many people, talking about money can feel extremely uncomfortable, so we look at the reasons why that is and how we can overcome our money-related fears.
2/ There is often a tendency to procrastinate when it comes to addressing our personal finances, so Sara shares her tips on how to motivate yourself and tackle that money to-do list.
3/ We also discuss the role that money plays in people’s happiness, as well as how to start a conversation about money and investing with friends (without the shame!).
