Episode 04: Financial & Career Planning


Listen Later

For our fourth episode, we are so excited to be tackling a topic that we wish was more mainstream: financial and career planning with long time friend and analytical mind, Anders Moller. Anders has a background in Economics, Business, and Innovation. While Danish-born, he has graced the Swiss marketplace with his presence for the better part of the past decade except for a stint in Toronto, Canada to do some financial analytics which is what brings us to our topic today!   

For all the self-development work that exists, so little is dedicated to understanding your financial self! And while money isn't everything, it sure does seem to be a big part of most people's decision making processes and ultimately lives. Arguably, your career choices have some of the biggest impacts on your financial well being and as a result, we touch on both in one go.   

We hope this is helpful and would love to know your thoughts in the comments below!
