💸 What if we gave kids the financial tools most adults never got?
In this episode of Making It Matter, I sit down with Sarah Marks, CEO of RedSTART Education, to explore why financial education needs to start earlier and how doing so can break cycles of poverty, improve mental health, and build real agency.
We discuss:
📚 Why teaching money in primary school is essential
📊 RedSTART’s 10-year impact model and how they measure success
💥 The link between financial education and social mobility
🧠 How Sarah leads with both strategy and heart
💡 What it really means to build purpose into your day job
This one is for anyone who believes systems can be changed by starting from the ground up.
