Today’s episode is about a topic that so many of us avoid talking about but has such a significant impact on the way we feel about being in our thirties: MONEY.

I have invited Ellie Austin-Williams onto the podcast for one of my most interesting guest interviews yet.

After becoming Bored of the same old financial content written by middle-aged men, Ellie set up This Girl Talks Money to tackle the money taboo and help women gain ownership of their finances.

Whether we like it or not, most of the big life decisions that we make, where to live, where to work, what our lifestyle looks like, if we want to travel, if we want to have a wedding or bring children into the world are influenced by the way we feel and approach money.

In this candid conversation Ellie and I dive into:

Why people find it so uncomfortable to talk about money, yet why we should be having these conversations more openly and more often.

Why money is such a determining factor in how you feel about being in your thirties.

Why people are SO obsessed with buying property.

How to cope with all the money we spend as hen party and wedding guests.

Practical tools to get started with saving money and taking control of your finances.

This is an episode and a topic that every single one of us should be talking about, full of interesting statistics, insights and opinions, and one that you do not want to miss!
