                Do you ever feel like you can’t be put in a box when it comes to your career? Do you have more than one strand to your working life? Can you be identified by a number of descriptors? Then, it’s likely you have a multi-hyphen career.

Jenny is an occupational therapist by day and by night she’s 1/3 of award-nominated podcast 'She's In A Pod and the founder of She Aspires Skills Academy - a brand centred around supporting young females and the real-world issues that affect them.

                They talk about Millennials and Get Z in the workplace, flexible working, burnout, side hustles and passion projects in this honest and raw account of life as a multi-hyphenate.

              • Pensions with Kia Commodore | Pennies to Pounds

                For many of you, you may be thinking why on earth should I be worrying about my pension when I am in my twenties?? And you’d be right, there really is nothing to worry about once you know what you’re doing, you can keep paying in and forget about it! As we’ve mentioned many times on the podcast, financial literacy is something that is often not addressed within the education system, leaving many young people clueless and having to fend for themselves. Its surprising how many of you listeners have reached out to ask if we could do an episode breaking down the financial jargon surrounding pensions. In this episode Gaby chats to Kia Commodore, creator of the Pennies to Pounds Financial Literacy Platform. They break down pensions and do the research for you, so you don’t have to!
