Having babies and going on maternity leave can put women in a financially vulnerable position, especially if we need to become dependent on someone else’s income. This week we’re having an important discussion on what financial abuse is, how to identity if it’s happening in your relationship and how we can set ourselves up to avoid financially abusive situations. 

We’re chatting with Julie-Anne (Jewlz) Ellem, a Chartered Accountant and Business Coach. Jewlz gives us some great tips on setting ourselves up for financial independence, and how to work within a family unit without falling into an unintended financially abusive situation.

*Content warning* In this episode we discuss topics around financial and domestic abuse.

Jewlz has had 20+ years experience in the corporate sector, and uses this to assist entrepreneurs in creating the lifestyle they desire. To learn more about Jewlz and her services, head to the links below:
