In today’s episode, we’re talking to the incredible Liz Gillette – a bad-ass financial advisor who, in her teenage and young adult years, experienced more than her fair share of money troubles. From watching her family home get repossessed to walking out of college with a monumental debt to pay, Liz’s financial journey has not been an easy one. We sat down with Liz to talk about the slippery slope of debt, the importance of communication, leaving judgement at the door and respecting your partner’s choices (even if it’s golf). Heart-breaking, inspiring and unflinchingly honest, this is a must-listen for everyone out there.

Ahhh, December. The trees are up, the carols are cranking, and things are looking rather bright and merry in the world of finance – unless, of course, you’re Michael Burry (the man behind The Big Short – it has Ryan Gosling in it, you’ve probably seen it). Today, we’re talking big risks, big bets and the danger of betting on failure. On a more positive note, the S&P500 is up, Uber’s finally in the big-dog club, Facebook is flying, Zuckerberg’s selling, TikTok is absolutely massive and Vic’s hit travel gold (for only 35 measly little Euros). ‘Tis the season, people.

We’re always excited to chat to our guests, but this week Soph has quite possibly lost her mind in anticipation. To celebrate the recent Transgender Awareness Week, we’re talking to the hilarious, honest and totally inspiring Allegra Bambi Haines. Born and raised in South Wales, in an idyllic (and very sheltered) community, Allegra’s journey from uncertain child to proud trans-woman has not been an easy one. From her traumatic ‘lightbulb moment’ at 21 to being struck off the NHS waiting list, from estrogen on toast to funding the renovation that never ends – Allegra takes us, graciously and wittily, through the real cost of transitioning. Deeply moving and unflinchingly honest, her story will leave you wanting to be a better person – and an even better friend.
