YEARBOOK

Many of us will start to get more serious in our relationships in our twenties. Every relationship is usually at a different stage but whether you live apart or together, want to buy a house, get married or have kids together, money always has a large part to play.

If you’re lucky you might be on the same page with your partner about money, but that’s not always the case for all matters. If you’re not, or you think you could be better at managing money with your partner then this is the episode for you. Gaby is joined by Thando and Lindie Jacobs from Skilled Finances as they talk you through the best ways to manage your money as a couple.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the support you have given Talk Twenties this year and sending so much love for 2021!

2020 has been a tough and uncertain year for us all, but is it possible to really thrive through change? This week’s guest (and final guest of 2020) tells us exactly how we can we can reframe our thoughts and fears about uncertainty by focusing on safety, growth and connection.

Jay Stone is remarkable woman who has been no stranger to challenges in 2020. She was told 3 times that her dad, who was hospitalised for 222 days with Covid-19, wouldn’t make it (spoiler - he did!).

Through her work as a Change Coach, Jay supports people to create clarity amidst uncertainty. Be ready to take on 2021 by listening to this episode!

When asked about the things we wish we’d been taught more about in school, top of the list for most people is money management. Should you save it? Spend it? Invest it?

In this episode Gaby is joined by Timi Merriman-Johnson a.k.a. Mr MoneyJar, for an introduction to investing. Timi outlines the basics of investing, what you need to know before you get started and how much you’ll need. He also emphasises that, whilst there is no pressure for you to get started right away, the early you begin your investing journey the more you are likely to benefit.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever wanted to understand more about investing and want it broken down into simple steps!

They say the secret to being a good entrepreneur is to be a doer, not a dreamer and this weeks guest is no stranger to taking action. At just 24 years old, Molly Masters is the founder and CEO of Books That Matter - the UK’s leading and largest book subscription box. In this episode, Gaby chats to Molly about her journey to entrepreneurship and explores how much her business has grown in 2020.

Despite the global pandemic, for Molly, 2020 is a year that’s included being featured in places like Forbes, Stylist, the London Evening Standard, winning Female Start-Up of The Year and even talking at Facebook.

However this wouldn’t be a true reflection of life as an entrepreneur if we just talked about the highlights and so this episode also sees Molly talk openly and candidly about the challenges she’s faced head-on this year.

If you’re looking to be inspired this is the episode for you!

Many of us experience challenges when it comes to dating and relationships in our twenties. Gaby sat down with Mindset Coach and founder of Whole As One, Megan Finch, to discuss why you shouldn’t need a relationship to feel complete. In this episode we also cover the warning signs of an unhealthy relationship and how to build self esteem and self worth so you can be the best version of yourself, irrespective of whether you are single, dating or in a long-term relationship!

Do you dream of being able to save 15 or 20k? Well this weeks guest has not just done it once, but twice, and she’s only 27! In this episode Gaby chats with Money and Mindset Coach, Laura Ann Moore, who shares her story of how she managed to save such substantial amounts of money to go travelling and start her own business. They discuss emergency funds, f**k Corona funds (yeah, that’s a thing!), money mindset, budgeting and staying dedicated.

Now, more than ever, it's important to be paying close attention to our everyday mental health. In the lead up to World Mental Health Day on Saturday 10th October, Gaby sat down to chat with fellow twenty-something Kathryn Wheeler who is Head Writer at Happiful Magazine. In this episode, they outline the definitions of mental health, mental illness and wellness, discuss the importance of talking about mental health and offer practical tips to prioritise your mental health on a daily basis. They also discuss the impact of recent world events on us as twenty-somethings and what we can do to ensure it all doesn't get too much!
