From now until Labour Day we are rebroadcasting (with updated information) our most popular shows.

Today’s guest is Christi Posner, a credit counsellor and new mother.  Christ starts the show by telling us how, after graduating from university she had a lot of debt.  She got married, and she and her husband wanted to start a family, so they knew they needed to tackle their debt.  They did.  They paid off their debt, and were in good shape financially to start a family.

Even though Christi is an experienced credit counsellor, there were many expenses that surprised her when she went on maternity leave.  She shares her practical tips for preparing for the birth of your first child, and gives advice on how to save money while on maternity leave.
