More Money Podcast

It's been 6 months since I started my hiatus...did you miss me? Because I missed you and as the More Money Podcast crosses 11 years since it started (and I celebrate a very special birthday), I wanted to give you an update on what I've been up to during this break and share what the future may hold for this podcast.

For the season finale of Season 22, I am thrilled to welcome Jillian Johnsrud, author of Retire Often , to discuss how we can redesign our lives to include multiple career breaks instead of waiting until 65 to enjoy our freedom. As I wrap up 10 years of the podcast and prepare for my own hiatus, Jillian explains why we should treat our careers like interval training rather than a marathon to avoid...

It is such a treat to have Amanda Holden, also known as Dumpster Doggy, back on the show for the first time since February 2020! Since we last spoke, she has pivoted from live events to teaching over 25,000 students online and writing her debut book, How to Be a Rich Old Lady , which comes out this January. In this episode, we discuss why you don’t need to be good at math to be a good investor and...

What do your freedom years look like? Because too often we are so focused on our day-to-day, we don't leave much space to reflect on "But what are we working towards?" That's why I wanted to re-listen to this episode with Stephanie Myers and Gillian Batt from  Our Freedom Years . After years of saving and investing, they were able to quit their day jobs, retire early, and spend their days tra...

In this episode, I sit down with Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman, an award-winning economist and author of the new book The Double Tax: How Women of Color Are Overcharged and Underpaid . Anna breaks down the concept of the "Double Tax," describing it as the "Pink Tax and then some," and explains how the compounded costs of racism and sexism force women of colour to pay more to exist in our economy, and w...

Have you ever felt unheard or unseen at work? Or have you ever experienced microaggressions from your co-workers? You’re not alone. Back in 2022, I interviewed Alan Henry, author of Seen, Heard & Paid , to discuss how to navigate a toxic work environment and how to advocate for yourself and others who are more susceptible to discrimination in the workplace due to their skin colour, gender...

I've been waiting 10 years to do this interview. Like so many other Canadians, reading David Chilton's first book, The Wealthy Barber , is what got me started on my personal finance journey. I learned about paying yourself first, automating your banking, and investing early, and I'm much richer now for it (thanks Dave!). But who knew his book would also propel me into my current career as a financ...

Back in 2019, I swore in this podcast episode with Matthew Siwiec, CFP, that I'd never become a financial planner. Cut to 6 years later, and here I am eating my words as a financial planner. But the main reason I wanted him on the show back then was to talk about who you can actually trust in the financial industry, given the alphabet soup of designations that make it hard to know who is actually...

So... did I pass the Qualified Associate Financial Planner™ (QAFP®)? You know, the exam I've been working towards these past 5 years, so I could finally call myself a financial planner. Listen to this special solo episode to find out the results, plus my thoughts on the year ahead as we wind down one of the wildest years I can remember.

Have you ever thought you were "bad with money"? Well, in this relisten episode, I interview Gabe Dunn, author of Bad with Money, where we discuss breaking bad money habits, how mental health can have a big impact on your money behaviours, and how to find balance with who you really are and your finances. Not only is this such a fun episode to re-listen to, but it also inspired me to reach back ou...

Did you know that the LGBTQ wage gap means that queer people earn 90 cents on the dollar, with trans women earning 60 cents on the dollar? If you didn’t, that’s because the unique financial obstacles faced by the LGBTQ community rarely gets the attention they deserve. To bring more awareness to it, I’ve invited Nick Wolny on the podcast to speak about it. He’s a finance columnist for Out Magazine...

There's a lot more to investing than math and strategies. In fact, some would argue that behaviour is a bigger indicator of how good an investor you are. This is what I discuss in this episode with Dr. Daniel Crosby, a prolific psychologist, behavioural finance expert and author of several books, including The Behavioral Investor . This episode originally aired on December 4, 2019. To find the ori...

Rose Han, a former Wall Street trader who turned million-subscriber financial YouTuber, joins me on the More Money Podcast, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I have followed Rose's incredible journey since her early days on YouTube, and I was eager to discuss how she went from being $100,000 in debt to becoming a millionaire in only 7 years. We also discussed her new book, Add a Zero , which provid...

Since credit was the topic of yesterday's episode, I thought it only right to relisten to this episode I did with Canada's credit expert and author of The Credit Game , Richard Moxley. He shares his insight and years of experience helping people get out of debt and rebuild their credit and I'm telling you, you've likely never heard someone so passionate about credit! This episode originally aired...

And we're back for Season 22 of the More Money Podcast, and just in time for my favourite time of year — Financial Literacy Month! To kick it off, I've invited Becca Mintz, VP of Credit and Data at Capital One Canada , on the show to talk about a subject many still feel is taboo. I'm talking about having bad credit. Here's the thing, there are a multitude of ways that you have bad credit, or maybe...

I've got a special summer announcement! I know I mentioned I was going to take a longer-than-usual hiatus after 10 years of the podcast, but I got this great opportunity to do a special 6-part mini series focused on spotlighting Canadian women entrepreneurs that I couldn't pass up. So expect to see that air in August and September. In addition, if you live near Coquitlam and Vancouver, British Col...

10 years. If you told me back in 2015 that starting this podcast would change my life, I wouldn't have believed you. Back then, I was just looking for a different outlet other than blogging to continue learning and educating others about money. In no way could I have predicted that I'd end up interviewing hundreds of experts and authors from all over the world, leaving my 9-to-5 to start my own fi...

For my final guest interview for Season 20 (don't worry, I've got one more solo episode airing tomorrow), I am so thrilled to have financial content creator and writer Katie Gatti Tassin on the More Money Podcast to talk about how to claim your financial power when it feels like everything is working against you. Because if you're a woman, the data doesn't lie. There are a lot of things making it...
