In this episode, your ears are being blessed once again by Laura Ann Moore, the UK-based financial wellbeing coach, educator and your money bestie. Laura shares her approach to transforming our relationships with money and building wealth while staying true to our values. We explore how financial security and freedom look different for everyone - and why it’s essential to define what it means personally before working toward it. From practical budgeting strategies to reframing spending habits, Laura discusses the mindset shifts needed to make intentional choices with money that align with a fulfilling life.
Episode highlights:
Shifting focus from chasing income to defining your version of financial freedom
How category limits shape our spending habits
Practical strategies to avoid extreme saving or spending
“Feeling good about money means something different to everyone… The work around feeling good about money is knowing what it means to you, and you can only do that by exploring money on a deeper level than just numbers and spreadsheets."
Laura [04:46]
“To one person, freedom is digital nomads travelling the world, going to a new place every year, every month, every week, whatever. To the next person, freedom means staying at home with the kids and leaving their 9 to 5."
Emma [07:34]
“It all just comes down to reframing how you view spending, investing, saving and just money in general and what each of those things mean."
Laura [23:18]
“When you actually look at handing over real money for those things, it can actually highlight when what you want is actually not that thing."
Emma [32:09]

In this episode, I’m joined by Kate Browne, head of research and insights at Compare Club, to explore the real impact of buy now, pay later services on our everyday financial habits. What started as a tool for spreading the cost of larger purchases has crept into everyday essentials like groceries and fuel. But how is this changing the way we think about spending and budgeting?
Kate and I dive into the hidden consequences of relying on these services, from juggling multiple payments to losing sight of the true cost of things. It’s not just those facing financial difficulties - many people with higher incomes are now turning to buy now, pay later instead of traditional credit options. Why is that? And what does it say about our changing relationship with money?
We also look at the potential long-term impacts, especially on younger generations, and how these services might be reshaping financial behaviour for years to come.
Today we cover:
“Some people said they were using it daily. And this is really showing that buy now, pay later isn't sort of a nice-to-have tool, but it's really ingrained as a financial tool for people to get from paycheck to paycheck."
Kate [03:56]
“It's very, very easy to lose control and even in people who are generally good with money, once you kind of lose control, it's really hard to get it back or it's even easier to put your head in the sand."
Kate [08:03]
“The relationship we have with our phones, we're on them all the time. So paying with them doesn't feel like anything out of the ordinary."

In today's episode, we're going down memory lane back to one of the early early episodes of the podcast for a book club-style chat about one of my all-time favourite reads, Atomic Habits by James Clear. This was episode ELEVEN of the show so do forgive my under-developed podcasting style in this episode, but it's still an enjoyable listen!
Atomic Habits is about behaviour change in general, but it also contains helpful insights for reshaping how we approach money. Instead of going for that crash diet mindset - cutting everything out for a short-term win - this episode is all about making better financial habits a natural part of your day-to-day life. I break down Clear’s four laws of behaviour change - Make It Obvious, Make It Attractive, Make It Easy, and Make It Satisfying - and share practical ways to apply them to your financial world. Whether you’re looking to save more or spend smarter, this episode is packed with actionable tips and bite-sized wisdom to help you build lasting change. Perfect if you're ready to level up your money mindset!

In this episode, I sit down with Jessie Leong, known as howifundthis on Instagram, to explore a common yet often overlooked financial struggle - money anxiety and the fear of spending. We discuss the challenges of hoarding money for security and how it affects those who identify more as savers rather than spenders. Jessie shares her personal journey, from growing up with the mindset of saving for a rainy day to grappling with the discomfort of parting with money. Together, we break down how to build a healthier, more balanced relationship with money, allowing for financial freedom without fear, shame, or anxiety.
