Today on our Money Moments episode, we're joined by Rebecca Keil, Social Media Influencer, Comedian, Mum and all-round great human.

Most NZ parents have probably come across Rebecca on Instagram - after she burst onto the social media scene in 2016, building an audience due to her authentic and super candid content.

Rebecca lives in Christchurch with her young whānau - her two kids Rocky and Ruby, husband Jared and they are literally expecting a pēpi any day now.

She's passionate about social issues and speaking openly on things that may not get airtime elsewhere. Her followers (that includes us) laugh along to her stories and thoughts around pregnancy, parenting, home life, relationships and more. So it made complete sense for us to want to chat to her about money.

Rebecca has also hosted many events and speaking tours around NZ - each time raising money for charities in the towns she visits. To date, she's raised over $50,000 for local NZ charities.

In this episode, we discuss: 

• How her parents taught her money skills
• Combining finances with her husband at a young age, and how she took on the family CFO role 
• Teaching her kids about money with unwavering honesty
• How her kids' personalities shine through to how they approach money
• The challenges with being self-employed, with irregular income and property purchases
• The journey to knowing your worth as an influencer and charging clients for work
• Buying and upsizing homes
• Getting crafty with monetising a large social media following
• Why she's passionate about raising money for great causes

We honestly could not stop laughing when editing this episode, so if you've come for the money chat we know you'll stay for the lols.

Enjoy!
