Financial University

Being made redundant is a challenging experience, especially when finding your next role takes longer than expected. Not only are there money worries, but also it can be hard to stay positive, stay motivated, and feel valued. In this episode I speak to Simon, who, like so many others, faced redundancy during the current pandemic. He shares some great practical advice and wisdom that got him through this difficult season, and how he came out the other side to a great new job.

For many, starting a business means taking a big risk, and with so much financial uncertainty around us right now it seems like a crazy time to start a business. But in this episode, I speak to Laura who had done exactly that — she has started the business she’s been dreaming of for years, and she’s done it all during lockdown.

Do you ever feel like your finances are in control of you, rather than the other way round? Do you struggle towards the end of the month, or feel uncertain about what’s coming in and out of your bank account? Do you wish that you were in control and living with purpose when it comes to money? The secret is budgeting.

In this episode, we discuss how to set up a budget, how to stick to one, and the life transforming power of being intentional with money through budgeting. And Kevin reveals how you could save the equivalent of £200,000 per year!

What do you do when you find yourself in a chaotic financial situation? How do you survive redundancy, loss of income, or a sudden increase in expenses? And how can you prepare for an uncertain future?

With so much in chaos in the world around us, we’ve recorded a special episode to launch the Financial University podcast, which we hope will equip you to navigate chaotic times and go on to thrive in the days ahead.
