More Money Podcast

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 financial education business, and eve...

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 harder to build wealth and achieve ...

How can we empower Gen Z and even Gen Alpha to take control of their financial futures? As my guest Rachel Rodgers explains in her new book, Future Millionaire: A Young Person’s Step-by-Step Guide to Making WEALTH Inevitable, we need to throw out the old rules and create new ones for this very different world they've just entered.

Rachel, who also wrote the book We Should All Be Millionaires, shares that we need to be more open and ...

Dan Bortolotti, a.k.a. The Canadian Couch Potato and well-respected investment portfolio manager and financial planner at PWL Capital, came on the show back in 2022 and shared exactly what you need to do to set up the right investment portfolio for you so you can reach your goals, keep your costs low, and spend hardly any time on it per year. Dan is a legend in the personal finance community, so I hope you enjoy this episode as muc...

I've got an incredibly inspirational guest for this episode! Dasha Kennedy, founder of the Broke Black Girl and author of Moving Beyond Broke: The Power of Perseverance in Personal Finance, shares her story of growing up low-income, surviving divorce and becoming a single parent, and learning about managing money on her own. On her personal finance journey, she realized she could help other women, especially Black women, in similar...

One of my favourite Canadian personal finance books to recommend is Larry Bates' Beat the Bank because it's exactly what every Canadian needs to know about how to advocate for yourself, not pay too much in fees, and navigate the complex and sometimes secretive world of finance. Considering Larry worked in finance for over 35 years, he knows what he's talking about and holds nothing back.

This episode originally aired on January ...

Leisa Peterson first came on the podcast in 2020 to talk about her first book The Mindful Millionaire, so I'm thrilled to welcome her back to talk about her new book The Money Catalyst where we deep-dive into the topics of scarcity, abundance, nurturing your inner wealth and transforming your relationship with money. What's also very different about her new book is that it's written as a narrative instead of a more traditional how-...

Too often, we confuse money for happiness, while it's simply a tool that can help us increase our happiness (to a limit). To talk about how to get your happy back and how to use money strategically to help you get there, for this episode, we're re-listening to my interview with Melissa Leong, author of Happy Go Money and money expert on The Social.

This episode originally aired on February 6, 2019.

It’s been an interesting year for investing so far, which is why I’ve invited Amber Kanwar, former anchor and reporter on BNNBloomberg and now host of the top investing podcast In the Money, to come on show to talk about what’s going on with the markets now and what tips she’s learned from her years of interviewing the best investors in the country. We also discuss her unconventional journey to becoming a finance journalist and now...

It's not about the latte! Most people (and money experts) misunderstand the true meaning of the latte factor, so who better to ask what it really means than co-author of The Latte Factor John David Mann. In this re-listen episode, we discussed what it was like writing this narrative-style personal finance book with bestselling author David Bach (The Automatic Millionaire), and the core messages of the book such as spending within y...

Knowing what we know now about money, I bet most of us would do things differently if we could go back in time. Although time machines don't exist, at least there's Shannon Lee Simmons' new book Making Bank: Money Skills for Real Life which was written specifically for teenagers so they can not only avoid repeating the same money mistakes we made, but they can learn all the skills they need to reach financial freedom during they mo...

This episode was incredibly relevant back in 2020 (and this originally aired before Covid and the crash!), and it's still just as relevant with the current economic situation we find ourselves today. If you want to know what to do with your investments from a true professional and expert in the field, Ben Felix, who is not only a CFP, CFA and CIM, but also the Chief Investment Officer and Portfolio Manager at PWL Capital, then you ...

Want to know how to find your financial joy? Because at the end of the day, money is just a tool. It's not the end goal. But joy, peace and happiness certainly are and money can help you fulfill that. In this relisten episode, Ken Okoroafor, founder of The Humble Penny and now a best-selling author of Financial Joy: Banish Debt, Grow Your Money and Live Joyfully in 10 Weeks, shares his story of humble beginnings to reaching financi...

Where do you even start with investing? This was the question Danielle Town had when she realized she needed to grow her money and find a path to financial independence because her job as a lawyer was leading her to full-on burnout. Cut to her going on a learning journey with her dad, a well-known motivational speaker, author and hedge fund manager, to discover all the ins and outs of building wealth through value investing, and sh...

We spend most of our lives saving for retirement, but when we get there... what's next? In this episode originally released in 2019, I interview Mike Drak, author of retirement books like Victory Lap Retirement and Retirement - Heaven or Hell?, all about how to find your purpose in your retirement years, what it means to have a second career in retirement, and how to avoid some of the most common pitfalls for retirees like boredom ...

The saying "Find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life" is quite honestly a lie. Even if you find your passion and are doing a job you love, it's still a job. And sometimes it's not fun. Take it from me! I love working for myself, but it's still work. Not only that, I know so many people who have passions outside of work, and their job is just, well, their job. And that's okay, says author and now TED Talk speak...

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has had one or two terrible bosses during their career. And I remember thinking "If I had the chance, I would do everything differently." But how do you become a good boss when you finally get the opportunity and avoid repeating their mistakes? That's what I discuss in this episode with CEO coach and author of You're the Boss: Become the Manager You Want to Be (and Others Need) Sabina Nawaz wh...

With everything that's going on between Canada and the U.S., a lot of us Canadians are rethinking our travel plans by staying on this side of the border to not only save money but to support our own economy. And one of the best ways to see our beautiful country is by travelling by RV. For this episode, I talk to Christopher Mahony, president of Go RVing Canada, a non-profit that's dedicated to promoting the RVing lifestyle in Canad...

I rarely have guests on the show to talk about real estate, especially real estate investing, since there are so many sharks out there trying to sell some get-rich-quick scheme or there are just so many other real estate-specific podcasts already out there. But when I had the chance to meet Daniel Foch and Nick Hill at an event recently, I knew I had to have them both on the show to fill us all in on what's going on with the Canadi...
