This is a special mini-series of the More Money Podcast sponsored by Visa Canada to highlight the latest winners of the Visa She’s Next Grant Program.

For the first episode in this series, I had the pleasure of interviewing Linda Biggs, founder of joni, a Canadian period care brand that aims to revolutionize the industry while working to improve menstrual equity, accessibility and sustainability. Linda shares her unique entrepreneurial journey, which began after a long career in computer science and was inspired by the realization that 1 in 3 women under 25 cannot afford period care. This episode delves into how Linda started the company with her co-founder, how they navigated a challenging launch during COVID, and her best advice for other budding entrepreneurs.

I've got a special summer announcement! I know I mentioned I was going to take a longer-than-usual hiatus after 10 years of the podcast, but I got this great opportunity to do a special 6-part mini series focused on spotlighting Canadian women entrepreneurs that I couldn't pass up. So expect to see that air in August and September.

In addition, if you live near Coquitlam and Vancouver, British Columbia, I'll be doing two book signings while I'm there over these next two weeks, and I hope to see you there:

Saturday, July 19 - 10am to 1pm PT - Chapters Coquitlam

Saturday, July 26 - 12pm to 3pm PT - Indigo Robson Vancouver

10 years. If you told me back in 2015 that starting this podcast would change my life, I wouldn't have believed you. Back then, I was just looking for a different outlet other than blogging to continue learning and educating others about money. In no way could I have predicted that I'd end up interviewing hundreds of experts and authors from all over the world, leaving my 9-to-5 to start my own financial education business, and eventually releasing a bestselling book where I share some of the most vulnerable parts of my relationship with money I'd never told anyone before.

What an absolutely amazing ride this has been. But it's not over yet. Although I'll be taking a break over the next few months to recharge and reflect on what I want the next 10 years of this podcast to look like, I'm not going anywhere. This podcast has given me so much, and I know it's given you so much too. We've been on this personal finance journey together after all, and there's so much more to explore. Thank you so much for all of your support this past decade. I can't wait to see what exciting things are ahead.

For my final guest interview for Season 20 (don't worry, I've got one more solo episode airing tomorrow), I am so thrilled to have financial content creator and writer Katie Gatti Tassin on the More Money Podcast to talk about how to claim your financial power when it feels like everything is working against you. Because if you're a woman, the data doesn't lie. There are a lot of things making it harder to build wealth and achieve financial independence. There's the gender wage gap, unfair hiring processes and unconscious (or conscious) biases at every step of the corporate ladder, and financial advice that was developed for men by men.

Katie has been very vocal about these topics on her Money with Katie podcast and newsletter, and she dives even deeper into them in her debut book Rich Girl Nation: Taking Charge of Our Financial Futures, which we explore in this episode.

How can we empower Gen Z and even Gen Alpha to take control of their financial futures? As my guest Rachel Rodgers explains in her new book, Future Millionaire: A Young Person’s Step-by-Step Guide to Making WEALTH Inevitable, we need to throw out the old rules and create new ones for this very different world they've just entered.

Rachel, who also wrote the book We Should All Be Millionaires, shares that we need to be more open and transparent about the real economic struggles young people face today, how side hustles are becoming an essential addition to any job, and how having a positive mindset and practicing self-care to avoid burnout and foster personal growth is key for any financial plan to work.

Dan Bortolotti, a.k.a. The Canadian Couch Potato and well-respected investment portfolio manager and financial planner at PWL Capital, came on the show back in 2022 and shared exactly what you need to do to set up the right investment portfolio for you so you can reach your goals, keep your costs low, and spend hardly any time on it per year. Dan is a legend in the personal finance community, so I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!

I've got an incredibly inspirational guest for this episode! Dasha Kennedy, founder of the Broke Black Girl and author of Moving Beyond Broke: The Power of Perseverance in Personal Finance, shares her story of growing up low-income, surviving divorce and becoming a single parent, and learning about managing money on her own. On her personal finance journey, she realized she could help other women, especially Black women, in similar circumstances, which led her to create a massive community online where she now teaches others how to build generational wealth, increase your income, and ultimately move beyond broke once and for all.

One of my favourite Canadian personal finance books to recommend is Larry Bates' Beat the Bank because it's exactly what every Canadian needs to know about how to advocate for yourself, not pay too much in fees, and navigate the complex and sometimes secretive world of finance. Considering Larry worked in finance for over 35 years, he knows what he's talking about and holds nothing back.

Leisa Peterson first came on the podcast in 2020 to talk about her first book The Mindful Millionaire, so I'm thrilled to welcome her back to talk about her new book The Money Catalyst where we deep-dive into the topics of scarcity, abundance, nurturing your inner wealth and transforming your relationship with money. What's also very different about her new book is that it's written as a narrative instead of a more traditional how-to style. If you know me, you know I love personal finance books written like this (like The Latte Factor and The Wealth Barber), so if you're like me, you'll love this book too!

Too often, we confuse money for happiness, while it's simply a tool that can help us increase our happiness (to a limit). To talk about how to get your happy back and how to use money strategically to help you get there, for this episode, we're re-listening to my interview with Melissa Leong, author of Happy Go Money and money expert on The Social.

This episode originally aired on February 6, 2019.
