Working Women's Wealth Podcast

We are often inspired to act on something GREAT that we experienced! But then life happens that throws us a curve ball. One of my personal stumbling blocks is understanding (and following through) what I need to do to live MY best life. I’m on a quest to change my behaviour and evolve my identity. And I invite you to join me because it starts with simply saying, “I AM…”

As Dr Abby Medcalf likes to put it, talking money leads to talking ‘dirty’ with our partners! But it’s so much more than just the money talk. How we spend our money is an external expression of the state of our hopes and dreams for our relationships. Dr Abby, a psychologist and author, helps thousands of couples explore constructs and tools that will change the game, starting with setting your intention.

We all want to fit in. We all want to belong. But the irony is that the greatest barrier to belonging is the need to fit in. Let that just sink in for a moment! What’s the difference you may ask? Fitting in has to do with everyone else. But belonging has everything to do with you. You will flourish when you are YOU!

“I just want to be HAPPY in my job!”, “I’m too OLD to change careers now”, or “I don’t know how to be promoted!” I hear this all the time! Career satisfaction is different for everyone. But it all stems from one core principle - PURPOSE. I chat with Tammy Gooler Loeb, a coach and podcast presenter, showcasing stories of career transitions and job changes that work to overcome stagnation, ageism, tricky corporate ladders and pesky glass ceilings.

This podcast is personal. As I live my mission to teach 1 million women about money, I realise that it’s easy to lose my way! I walk a tight rope of living with passion while trying to avoid my biggest fear - public opinion. There, I said it! But we can’t serve two masters to be truly great. I explore my headspace on these notions and I invite you to stretch outside your comfort zone with me.

In the Age of Distraction, we have so many ways to communicate but we don’t genuinely CONNECT. We hide behind emails and messages. We cringe to have those difficult talks. I chat with Alan Samuel Cohen about connection thrillers and killers, and the tools you need to be an authentic connector.  Alan is a results-driven executive leadership coach, professional speaker and book author.

From a high-flying executive to hitting rock bottom. Yup, I have had some major career setbacks AND when I was at the top of my game! NOBODY is safe from the sting of the rejection injection. So, when one door closes on you, I dare you to shout “NEXT”, and rewrite your story! And this is how I built my resilience.

Rejected job application? Overlooked for that promotion? Navigating a minefield of difficult co-workers? Fighting to prove to your boss that you are worthy for MORE? Sometimes, we just need to adjust our attitudes, ask for honest feedback, connect with the right people, and re-plan our careers and lives. That’s called resilience. I chat with Christmas Hutchinson, a resilience career coach, whom specializes in strengthening our resolve to thrive!

The no. 1 reason WHY people don’t start a side hustle is because they believe in the ideal of the entrepreneur. We think that we need that ONE big, awarding-winning idea that will hit us like a thunderbolt one afternoon and it will change the world! WRONG! All you need to be able to do is sell 1 product to 1 person for $1… and repeat! BUT what if you don’t have a clue where to start? Let me help you…

My goal is to get women to invest MORE money. But how do you invest money that you don’t have in the first place? I realised I needed to help women make more money first in order invest it. Making more money should be the new normal. I chat with Monika Malan, a talented young lady who started my flagship side hustle course. Monika’s dream is to cover her daily expenses so that she can work half day. The gift of flexibility is priceless!

Why don’t we just do what we need to do to better our lives? We set resolutions and action plans. But procrastination and excuses take hold! This topic fascinates me! I have learned that the clients that are the most successful in achieving their goals are the clients that invested (or sacrificed!) valuable time, money and effort. You are much more engaged to prioritise and shift your mindset to ensure your success. Because YOU deserve to live your BEST life!

Creative thinking is the MOST sought-after skill in the world! After all, AI is able to do all programmable work. BUT creativity is NOT artistry. It’s alternative thinking to solving problems. I am joined by Nina Pearse, founder of Creativity Wake Up. Creative muscles can be exercised. Nina and her team stretch your fluidity, speed of thought and originality! And we need so much more of THIS!

When I made the decision to start my own business, I was over 40, with 3 kids, and at university! Whatever dream-life you want, we need to save AND make a little extra $$$ on the side these days! A tall order, right? But it’s the ONLY sustainable way to save TODAY and build for the FUTURE. Additional income protects you from life’s knocks AND it provides you with the opportunity to enjoy some of life’s great experiences! Start today!

Mandy Rice, a high school teacher and side hustler, is always looking for ways to use her love for teaching to make a meaningful impact on her students and her colleagues. After all, the riches are in the niches! Mandy “flipped” her classroom and increased student participation - cutting the learning time and outperforming their peers.  She's now teaching other teacher's how, and at the same time, earning a side income and taking the first steps to fulfilling her AND passions.  

Doctor. Artist. Lawyer. Explorer. We all wanted to be a million things growing up! But very few of us knew with a burning PASSION what we wanted to do. So, how do you know what you're great at doing? Forget the titles, positions and the corner office set-up. To understand your greater purpose, we need to uncover your passion and amplify your superpower!

A picture is worth a thousand words. And in today's online world, it is worth a thousand stories! I chat with Crystaline Randazzo, a humanitarian photographer and visual storyteller for Non-Profit's. She has documented agricultural projects in Haiti, women's cooperatives in Rwanda, adoptions in Congo, and reconstruction in Nepal. Crystaline’s photography passion is just testament that you can make money anywhere - from the African jungles to the Nepal wilderness.

I set myself a Big Hairy Audacious Goal to teach one million women about money! But there are times that I want to throw in the towel and call it a day! So how do I pick myself up and dust myself off to continue? There exists a certain type of energy that is able to pick you up no matter how low you may feel. It is the type of energy that is fueled by PASSION! It is the best feeling in the world when you make a difference in someone’s life. It refuels your passion and ignites your energy to continue!

This is for all the musicians, designers, writers and social media queens! The past belongs to those that mastered math. The future belongs to the CREATIVES! Never before have we had the access and freedom to build an online audience to make your niche services viable and profitable. All at the click of a button! I chat with Shotgun Tori, South Africa’s Queen of Folk, about following our passions at all costs and the ability to evolve your talents to create money. Sing it, sister!

We ALL work soooo hard! But some of us get to live life and retire very well while many of us don’t. So, what’s the deal with that?! Understanding money is 90% behaviour and 10% technical knowledge. How do you know what you are doing with your money is the best decision for YOUR future? In other words, do you deserve to retire well? Or do you deserve to struggle? Yikes! So, I have a challenge for you!

What makes women start businesses? After all, who doesn’t want to be sitting on the beach on a Wednesday? The key to starting a successful business, no matter how small, is a strong like-minded community and accountability partners to keep you focused. I chat with Cerina Bezuidenhout and Lauren Dallas, co-founders of Future Females - a global community of female entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs. With over 10 chapters, 9000 members and 231 contributors, this MOVEMENT is to be reckoned with!
