Joining me today is Lottie Leefe, founder of The Dura Society and a financial advisor who is helping women through different stages of life to improve and take control of their wealth and wellbeing. 

Together we cover what you should consider before making joint financial decisions, as well as providing valuable guidance on being financially prepared for the unexpected (wills, pension beneficiaries, insurances). We also talk about how to look after yourself when you end up in challenging situations such as debt, economic abuse or divorce.
