She didn’t grow up having money conversations, so today, she’s intentional about giving her children something she never had — a legacy of honesty and accountability.

In this deeply personal episode, Lauren (not her real name) shares her story of starting over after two marriages, raising children as a single mother, and supporting her daughter and grandchildren, all while learning to redefine her own relationship with money.

Joined by host Michael Avery and Chartered Wealth’s Kim Potgieter, this episode explores:

 • How inherited beliefs around money can sabotage or serve us.
 • The emotional cost of over-giving and the healing power of boundaries.
 • How to model financial responsibility for your children even if you’re still learning yourself — and why now is the perfect time to start your own money conversations.
 • The moment when a financial plan becomes a life plan.

 Lauren’s courage to open up about guilt, love, sacrifice, and self-reinvention will resonate with anyone who’s ever wondered: “Am I teaching my children the right lessons about money or repeating my parents’ mistakes?”
