Working Women's Wealth

Have you started another year with less money than you need to make ends meet? Between Christmas, summer vacation and the start of the new school year (in the Southern Hemisphere), January can be wildly expensive. And with money being one of the top causes of stress in the world today, getting it under control should be a priority.

It can feel easier to bury your head in the sand when things feel hard, but in the long run it just makes the problem worse. So chin-up, listen to this week's episode and get your head around the first steps required to getting your money under control.

How much of what you earn do you give away? And whilst giving (or tithing) isn't optional, (in the flawed and poverty-stricken world that we live in), many questions arise on the actual logistics of giving.

With a complex topic like giving money, there is no right or wrong answer, there is only personal opinion. In today's episode are the guidelines that I give on the subject.

Most importantly though, it all comes down to the main core principle - the motivation of your heart...

So you've given in to the nagging voice in your head that says you need a will (because you need a will), now what?

Because it's so important that you put the effort and research in to create a will, this weeks episode is all about the structure of a will, and what needs to be included to make it a GOOD one.

Do you have a will? If not, that's the first mistake to remedy... Listen to this week's episode to find out the most common mistakes made when drawing up a will, and at least ONE of the reasons why it is SO important that you have one.

Are you able to choose what you do with your time? If you work, where you work, when you work, with whom you work?

Financial freedom gives you those choices. In today's episode I talk about the three things you CAN do to grow your wealth and get financially free!

Have you been saving 20% of your earnings every month to go toward your future investments and retirement? Like most of us, probably not. And also like most of us, you KNOW that you need to invest more...

But how?

Using theories of behavioural finance, in today's episode I offer some practical tools that you can use to save for tomorrow, tomorrow.

Do you settle for OK rather than rock the boat and make the hard decisions that could change your life? An easier course of action may seem painless in the short term, but hard choices lead to an easy life, whilst easy choices on the other hand...

But what if you weren't afraid? Or despite the fact that you were afraid, you knew that you could handle whatever came your way?

Because you can.

Make the hard choices and turn OK into GREAT! Great health, great wealth, great happiness, and great work.

Have you (like me) cried, 'Enough Now!' at the seemingly constant onslaught of hard and heavy things that life has been throwing at you? Then it may be time to change the season in your life.

As the bleakness of winter melts into an ever-hopeful spring, there are some things you need to KNOW, to SENSE, and to DO if you want to make the transition of the metaphorical seasons of your life smoother and more seamless.

In this 200th episode of the Working Women's Wealth podcast, I'd like to say a GIANT thank you to all of you who have been walking this journey alongside me...

Thank you for joining me for 200 episodes. I am humbled that people still listen!

Do you catch yourself telling your children the same disempowering statements about money that your parents taught (or modelled for) you? Then it might be time to reframe your money beliefs.

In our house, we talk in the currency of 'worth it', and the girls understood this concept from a young age. Money is finite and you can't have everything you want. But what you can have is everything that's WORTH IT.

In today's episode I talk about HOW to reframe your money beliefs, so that you can live now AND invest for your future freedom.

When it comes to your money, do you have a plan? Or are you just hoping for the best? Here's how you CAN set yourself up for financial success...

In today's episode are the five P's of a Money Management System that make it doable. Getting a grip on your day-to-day money is the first step towards changing your financial future.

Tomorrow night, Thursday 26 August, I'm holding a LIVE workshop where you can join me and I'll go through what exactly you need to implement to make it happen for YOU.
