Michelle Herbert | Does Financial Freedom really exist and what does it mean - Is this term simply to create fear and doubt as a marketing tool?
Dawn and Tracy have guest Michelle Herbert, also known as the Foxy Financial Advisor with them today on Real Women. The trio will be discussing the term Financial Freedom, which is often overused. What does it mean and is there a true passive way to be financially free, or is it just a marketing tool used to create fear and doubt?
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Michelle is a financial advisor, but most importantly she’s a planner. She plans for people's financial futures, making sure they've got everything that they should have and then letting them know whether they're on track, off track to achieve their goals and what they can do if they are off track to achieve their goals.
- Financial freedom is completely different depending on who you're talking to. Financial freedom for a property investor normally means they want to generate a passive income from property to leave the rat race of their employed life. To a business owner it might be that they can get somebody running the business so they can take a backseat and they can do more of what they want to do.
- For Michelle, her business is her. It's impossible for her to get somebody in to run her business because she is the one that gives the advice. Her version of financial freedom is being able to do what she wants to do when she wants to do it.
- Property is not passive income. Full stop, no business truly is. A lot of the people selling the concept of financial freedom are working 75 hours a day.
- With big property investing training, they get people who want their financial freedom to sign up. Then before they've even started and bought their own house, they are 15 or 20 grand in debt from the training that they've just had.
BEST MOMENTS
‘This financial freedom seems to be bloody everywhere, what the heck does it mean?’
‘Financial freedom doesn't necessarily mean giving up work’
‘To me, financial freedom is a complete bollocks statement because ultimately most people are looking for freedom of choice’

ABOUT THE GUEST
When Michelle joined South Yorkshire Police in order to help people, she soon found out that she was trying to put pieces of people's lives back together, as terrible things had already happened to them. This is not what Michelle classed as helping people. She was then given an amazing opportunity to join St. James's Place Wealth Management Academy, this career move meant that Michelle finally got to help people, in the true meaning of the word.
Michelle is passionate about helping individuals and business owners embrace financial planning, and empower them to make sound financial choices both in their business and personal lives.
ABOUT THE HOSTS
Dawn and Tracy are real women who are fed up of all the “noise” out there in the real world. Life isn’t simply rainbows and unicorns, it's broken relationships, hard work, hot sweats and never ending laundry baskets. But life as a real woman is also about being honest, having good gossip and speaking our truths. Whether it’s peeling yourself into your spandex for a night out, or running a business meeting barefoot because the heel has fallen off your stilettos, there is always something to laugh about in life.
Dawn is mid 50’s mid menopause straight talking business maverick. Four kids, three grandchildren, two businesses, one husband and a self proclaimed “hottie”.
Tracy is a mid 50’s awesome mum, business and property mentor. Proud of her raw, honest nature, “bonkers” sense of humour and good old fashioned northern humility.
PODCAST DESCRIPTION
The business of being a real woman juggling life, love and work for many of us is pure sweat, grit & hustle. This podcast is for those of you who are tired of the “noise” and just want real down to earth gossip with no filters or fluff. Dawn and Tracy bring heart felt humour, raw honesty, spandex, stilettos and intelligent conversion on being a real woman in today's world.
