Hello, I'm Jama, and welcome to Good Influence.

This is the podcast where each week you and I meet a guest

who will help us pay attention to something we should know about as well as answer some of your questions.

This week we're talking about money.

Why mindset is so important in approaching our finances, how our parents can affect our thinking,

and some ways to rethink our relationship with how we spend.

Natalie is a money mindset coach who in our own words works to educate,

elevate and empower millennials and Gen Z to banish their self-limiting beliefs. She offers one-to-one coaching for clients and features

as a guest speaker on platforms including BBC Radio, as well as sharing her advice and guides

on social media to help you pay yourself first.
