Ready to change your fortune in 2026? Welcome to the Wealth Kick.

How do you work out what you really want? Lots of smart people have tried to crack that one, from Aristotle to Oprah. In this episode, we set out to help you pin down your goals and priorities—because before you get moving on your money, you need to know where you’re trying to go and why. 

This is the first episode of the Wealth Kick, a limited series to change your perspective on money for the new year. Until the end of January, we’re serving up a little financial soul-searching, easy exercises you can use anywhere, and a few wacky stories.
