In this episode I sit down with Linda Grizely, financial expert and host of Real Money, Real Life, to explore how our beliefs, behaviours and personality shape the way we manage money.

The five different money personalities
How your past shapes your relationship with money
The “Me Money Method” and how it works
Where to start with saving, debt and investing
Why understanding yourself is key to financial success
