Join the course with a discount: https://medics-money-partnership.circle.so/checkout/financial-wellbeing-course-7?coupon_code=FWBEARLYThe podcast features Dr. Nadia Ekong discussing what she learned on the Financial Wellbeing course and how she applies it to her family, covering budgeting, saving, investing, and teaching children about money. She contrasts growing up with unspoken expectations that academic success would guarantee financial security with the modern reality of taxes, spending, and the need to manage income intentionally. Key takeaways include planning finances prospectively using the Medics Money financial dashboard, adopting mindset shifts such as understanding the true value of “£1” after tax and the real cost of purchases, and using evidence-based, passive investing. She describes practical steps for kids: piggy banks, GoHenry and Starling Kite accounts, goal-based “pots,” and reading Grandpa's Fortune Fable to introduce long-term investing. They also discuss pocket money approaches and recommend E is for Ethics for teaching morals through stories and guided questions.00:00 Episode Overview01:21 Meet Dr Nadia Ekong01:56 Early Money Lessons03:01 Doctor Pay Reality Check04:49 Course Takeaways07:54 Teaching Kids Money09:25 Investing With Stories11:47 Pocket Money Debate15:19 Ethics For Kids Book18:04 Top Tips And WrapWant the latest financial tips for doctors and exclusive invites?

Credit unions talk about mission every day, but how often do we measure it? In this episode, Scott and Scott sit down with Andy Bandyopadhyay of Attune to explore how leaders can move beyond slogans and create real proof that their work is changing lives. With employee engagement at historic lows, the conversation challenges leaders to connect daily behaviors to measurable outcomes for both employees and members. You will hear how financial wellbeing metrics, coaching conversations, and consistent communication turn mission into momentum. If you want your team to see that their work matters and build a culture where purpose drives performance, this episode provides a practical framework to start immediately.  In this episode we talk about and answer these questions:  • why employee engagement drops when mission is not measurable  • how to measure mission with the same rigor as financial performance  • what financial wellbeing metrics better reflect member impact  • how leaders can capture and share proof of purpose moments  • why communicating mission repeatedly builds culture and clarity  • how data and coaching work together to reinforce purpose    Click Here to Submit Your Questions  Links from show:  Attune Insights  CUInsight article: We Need Clear National Standards to Measure Mission and Margin Together  Andy Bandyopadhyay LinkedIn  ServiStar's New Employee Bundle ServiStar's TARGET Leadership course Subscribe to ServiStar Leadership Podcast on your favorite streaming service 

Beth Battaglino, RN, CEO of HealthyWomen.org, joins The Power of the Ask to illustrate how health literacy and financial security are directly connected. Beth draws on more than three decades of women's health advocacy to explain why delaying care, skipping screenings, and staying quiet in the doctor's office can carry real financial consequences. She also shares how she made the boldest ask of her career, turning a hospital's about-to-close nonprofit into one of the country's leading women's health organizations. Key takeaways from this important conversation: Health Literacy and Financial Security Go Hand in Hand: Women who understand their health and act early live longer, work longer, and face fewer financially devastating medical crises down the road. Delayed Care Has a Price Tag: Skipping preventative screenings delays diagnosis, increases treatment costs, and can derail a woman's ability to work and earn. Ask for the Second Opinion: A second opinion is not a betrayal of your provider. The smartest healthcare professionals encourage it, and the most empowered patients demand it. Know Your Numbers (All of Them): Blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, and Lp(a) are non-negotiables. One simple blood test for Lp(a) can reveal a hidden heart risk most women don't know to ask about. Alignment Before the Ask: When building partnerships, Beth leads with shared values, not a wish list. That philosophy has sustained HealthyWomen for 35 years. Important Links:Savvy Ladies (https://www.savvyladies.org/)Precious Williams' LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/precious-l-williams/)Lisa Zeiderman's LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisazeiderman/Beth Battaglino's LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/beth-battaglino-14b6165/)Important Links for Beth:Healthy Women (https://www.healthywomen.org/)About Beth Battaglino: Beth Battaglino is the president and chief executive officer of HealthyWomen, the nation's leading independent, nonprofit health information source for women dedicated to educating women to make informed health choices. Beth brings a unique combination of sharp business expertise and women's health insight to her leadership of the organization.

Between 2019 and 2023, the number of electronic transactions tripled in six Latin American economies. The share of adults using digital wallets, mobile money, and mobile bank accounts went from 3% in 2011 to 40% by 2021. A region that not long ago was defined by financial disasters, hyperinflation, and deep mistrust of banks has become one of the world's leading examples of how digital payments can transform an economy.Diego Vera-Cossio edited Beyond Cash, The Digital Payments Revolution in Latin America and the Caribbean, the Inter-American Development Bank's new regional microeconomic report on digital payments. He tells Tim Phillips how the effects of this revolution are more profound that freeing people from the need to carry cash. In Santiago, bus robberies fell when drivers stopped handling cash. In Brazil, firms in the most cash-intensive sectors grew substantially after the instant payment system Pix launched. In Colombia, people without any credit history started borrowing formally after being nudged to receive their social program payments digitally. And in Bolivia, where 80% of the workforce is informal, people are scanning QR codes at street market stalls. The question Diego, his colleagues, and policymakers int he region and beyond, are now trying to answer is how to build on all of that, and how to make it stick.The research behind this episode:Vera-Cossio, Diego A., ed. 2025.

The cost of living is hitting Kiwis hard, with new data showing Aucklanders are more likely to be worse off. More than a third of New Zealanders have a savings balance of less than $500, according to new data from Westpac. Westpac's Financial Wellbeing programme manager, Warren Ngan Woo, says Auckland is a big city where things cost more, which eats into people's ability to save money. "This is just a snapshot in relation to savings, but it certainly doesn't take into account what other people have in options with their savings."

In this episode, Danielle DiMartino Booth, CEO of QI Research and former Fed insider, calls the Federal Reserve "borderline cruel" after FOMC minutes revealed several participants wanted rate hikes despite Americans' financial wellbeing hitting record lows. Danielle argues we're already in a labor market recession that "won't be acknowledged for years but is undeniable to the people who are in it," pointing to unprecedented data: 12 consecutive months of negative payroll revisions, 419,000 net job losses when excluding education and health services, seasonal adjustment anomalies adding 140,000 phantom jobs in January, and unemployment survey response rates at record lows making the data unreliable. She highlights that Truflation shows inflation at just 0.7% while the Fed maintains hawkish rhetoric, that 52% of college graduates are underemployed with another graduating class arriving in two months, and that AI is destroying entry-level jobs in finance, accounting, and architecture without any retraining programs in place. Danielle warns about the societal implications of Gen Z and millennials (52.5% of voters) increasingly using buy now pay later for basic necessities like medical bills and utilities, while others use it for vacations with no intention of paying it back. She questions whether Kevin Warsh will hold to his stated principles about shrinking the Fed's balance sheet or cave to market pressure like Powell did in 2018, and reveals that Fed governor Michael Barr is already hinting at expanded social safety nets or UBI to address AI-driven unemployment. Danielle refuses to "gaslight Americans" about the economy and emphasizes the urgent need to think about retraining workers and the societal implications of mass youth unemployment.Links: Danielle's Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/dimartinobooth Substack: https://dimartinobooth.substack.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DanielleDiMartinoBoothQIFed Up: https://www.amazon.com/Fed-Up-Insiders-Federal-Reserve/dp/0735211655Timestamps: 0:00 Welcome back Danielle DiMartino Booth 0:52 FOMC minutes: Several participants want rate hikes 1:46 Americans' financial wellbeing at record lows — the disconnect 3:31 Truflation at 0.7% — what the Fed is missing 5:27 What's the Fed missing on the labor side? 7:06 Labor recession in plain sight — concentrated in non-cyclical sectors8:28 Buy now pay later for medical and dental bills 9:32 Gen Z and millennials: Taking on debt with no intention to pay 11:00 A revolt against the system? 12:15 The Fed didn't listen to your open letters 13:40 Rate hike talk while small business borrowing costs are "prohibitively tight" 14:59 Fed being sanguine on credit delinquencies 16:14 What would be the responsible thing for the Fed to do? 17:12 "It's getting personal" — Americans worried about losing their own jobs 18:02 52% of college graduates are underemployed 18:42 Is this AI or just an excuse? 20:08 What happens in 2028 if the pendulum swings? 21:32 Kevin Warsh — will he stick to his principles? 24:01 Is the Fed too beholden to the market? 25:15 Unemployment survey response rate at record lows 27:23 Base case for the economy — labor market recession continues 28:56 What keeps you up at night and what makes you hopeful?

How to have more open conversations about money.Talking about money is taboo for many people. But according to Wendy De La Rosa, financial well-being only starts when we break the silence around finance.De La Rosa is a professor at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and a co-founder of the Common Cents Lab, an initiative aiming to increase financial well-being for low- to moderate-income people. For many, she says, shame keeps us silent about money. “Shame is paralyzing, and more than any other negative emotion, [it] leads us to ignore,” she says. But when it comes to financial well-being, ignoring our finances is the last thing we should do. Instead, De La Rosa advocates for open discussion. “Talk about finances,” she says. “How did you ask for a raise? What are you getting paid right now? These are important conversations that help everybody.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, De La Rosa and host Matt Abrahams explore how to have more open, productive conversations about finances. Whether you're a manager thinking about employee financial wellness or trying to broach a difficult topic with a partner or friend, De La Rosa offers practical strategies for breaking through the taboo around money.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Wendy De La RosaEp.104 How to Change: Building Better Habits and Behaviors (And Getting Out of Your Own Way)Ep.59 From Dreaming to Doing: How We Set and Achieve Goals  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters: ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.

Viele starten ins neue Jahr mit sportlichen Zielen oder guten Vorsätzen für den Alltag, aber kaum jemand nutzt den Jahresbeginn, um die wohl wichtigste Frage zu stellen: Was macht mich wirklich glücklich? Und wofür soll mein Geld einmal da sein? Darüber und wie das Ganze mit der individuellen Vermögensstruktur verbunden werden sollte, sprechen wir wie immer mit Karl Matthäus Schmidt, Vorstandsvorsitzender der Quirin Privatbank AG und Gründer der digitalen Geldanlage quirion. Karl beantwortet folgende Fragen: Wie hat Karl Matthäus Schmidt die Feiertage erlebt? (1:21) Warum sollte zum Jahresstart ein Finanz-Check-Up für jeden dazugehören? (2:04) Wie lauten die Schmidtschen‘ guten Vorsätze? (3:00) Wie findet man heraus, ob der eigene Anlagemix wirklich passt? (3:33) Was steckt hinter dem sogenannten „Goal-Based Investing“? (5:45) Warum können die wenigsten Anlegerinnen und Anleger ihre Anlageziele ganz konkret artikulieren? (6:45) Sind wir alle auf kurzfristige Erfolgserlebnisse fixiert? (8:13) Was hilft, den Fokus auf die langfristigen Ziele und Träume zu richten? (9:36) Wie lässt sich das eigene finanzielles Wohlbefinden ermitteln? (11:06) Was hat die Quirin-Kundenbefragung zum Thema finanzielles Wohlbefinden ergeben? (13:03) Wie gibt man eigentlich intelligent Geld aus? (13:51) Was sollte man zum Jahresbeginn mit Blick auf die finanzielle Zukunft unbedingt tun? (15:43) Gut zu wissen: Gesunde Finanzen werden oft unterschätzt, haben aber einen direkten Einfluss auf das persönliche Wohlbefinden. Ob eine Geldanlage passt, zeigt sich erst, wenn man die Ist-exakte Struktur des Vermögens mit den persönlichen Zielen abgleicht. Der Schlüssel zum Erfolg liegt darin, das Vermögen an konkreten Lebenszielen auszurichten, statt wahllos Produkte zu kaufen. Viele Menschen scheuen langfristige Pläne, weil sie glauben, es „kommt eh anders“, oder weil sie die Beschäftigung mit dem Alter verdrängen. Unser Gehirn ist auf kurzfristige Belohnung konditioniert; langfristige Planung widerstrebt unseren Ur-Instinkten. Um Ziele greifbar zu machen, sollte man sich die eigene Zukunft detailliert ausmalen (z.B.: „Wo genau will ich in 20 Jahren wohnen?“). Wenn Finanzen und Lebensziele nicht harmonieren, entsteht oft eine unbewusste Unruhe – unabhängig davon, wie viel Geld man hat. Vielen fällt der Vermögensverzehr im Alter schwerer als das Sparen; konkrete Entnahmepläne helfen gegen diese psychologische Hürde. Alles beginnt mit einer ehrlichen Bestandsaufnahme der aktuellen finanziellen Situation und der eigenen Wünsche.

Why do some people save every spare dollar, while others blow through their pay the moment it lands? It might have less to do with discipline and more to do with the way you were raised.Guest: Emily Stewart, ABC business reporter and author of Sensible MoneyIf this episode has you feeling *triggered*, you can sign up to Emily's handy money newsletter here (you're looking for Your Money Explained next to a picture of Emily). You might also like our previous chat about how to survive the cost of living crisis.  And if there are any topics you'd love us to cover, get in touch at quick.smart@abc.net.au--------You're listening to Quick Smart's summer season. We'll return with fresh episodes next year, but in the meantime please enjoy our special curation for the holidays. This episode originally aired on 17th June, 2025.

In this episode, Bob 'n Joyce explore key findings from Gallup's 2025 World Happiness Report. The United States experienced a notable decline, ranking 24th — its lowest position ever. The report highlights how social connection, financial wellbeing, emotional health, and physical wellness all play a critical role in overall happiness. While these findings may not come as a surprise, they should serve as a wake-up call for business leaders and OD practitioners. Unhappy employees don't just affect morale — they impact business results and workplace culture in very real ways. In the spirit of the season, we focus on what we can do to address chronic unhappiness, drawing directly from insights in the Gallup poll. What emerges are solutions that don't require big budgets or more time. In fact, small, subtle shifts by leaders — being fully present, asking thoughtful questions, and helping people feel seen and validated — can make a meaningful difference. On a personal level, we invite you, our listeners, to use this holiday season as a moment to pause, look around, and make someone's day. Kindness is contagious — and when it spreads, it lifts all of us. No better time to begin than now. Come on in, grab a snack. Welcome!

In dieser besonderen Weihnachtsausgabe von „klug anlegen" widmet sich Karl Matthäus Schmidt, Vorstandsvorsitzender der Quirin Privatbank AG und Gründer der digitalen Geldanlage quirion, einem Thema, das in der Finanzbranche noch viel zu selten im Mittelpunkt steht: dem finanziellen Wohlbefinden. Er spricht dazu mit Dr. Thomas Mathar, Verhaltensforscher und ausgewiesener Experte für „Financial Wellbeing“. Im Kern geht es um die Frage: Wie treffen wir bessere Entscheidungen für ein glückliches, langes Leben – vor allem in finanzieller Hinsicht? Karl und Thomas beantworten folgende Fragen: Warum und seit wann beschäftigt Dr. Mathar das Thema Financial Wellbeing? (1:29) Hat er sich dem Thema ganz wissenschaftlich und rational genähert? (2:34) Inwiefern passt Financial Wellbeing zum Podcast „klug anlegen“? Und was bedeutet es aus Schmidts Sicht? (3:07) Warum ist langfristige Geld- und Lebensplanung in erster Linie ein mentales Problem und kein finanzielles? (4:39) Welche Fragen sollte man sich stellen, um sich gut in das zukünftige Ich hineinzuversetzen? (8:07) Welche mentalen Hürden gibt beim Geldausgeben? (9:38) Wie wird man ein guter Geldausgeber? (12:16) Wie lässt sich Sparen lernen? (14:06) Wie lässt sich herausfinden, wie es um das eigene finanzielle Wohlbefinden steht? (15:52) Wie wohl fühlen sich die Kunden und Kundinnen der Quirin Privatbank in Sachen Finanzen? (17:05) Warum ist es so wichtig, bei Marktschwankungen gelassen zu bleiben? (17:55) Wie lässt sich das Wohlbefinden in Bezug auf einen klaren Zukunftsplan verbessern? (19:04) Wie gehen die angelsächsischen Länder mit dem Thema Financial Wellbeing um? (20:45) Was wird bei der Quirin Privatbank dafür getan, dass sich die Kundinnen und Kunden finanziell wohlfühlen? (22:25) Inwiefern zahlt das Buch „Geld im Glück“ auf dieses Thema ein? (23:56) Was hat Schmidt motiviert, ein Buch zu schreiben? (25:10) Wie motiviert man zufriedene Kundinnen und Kunden zur Weiterempfehlung? (26:20) Wie kommt es bei Bank-Kunden an, wenn man sie danach fragt, was sie glücklich macht? (27:54) Gut zu wissen Financial Wellbeing bedeutet, Geld so zu verdienen, auszugeben und anzulegen, dass es hilft, persönliche finanzielle Ziele und Träume zu verwirklichen. Eine Geldanlage ist nur dann wirklich klug, wenn sie dem eigenen finanziellen Wohlbefinden dient. Viele Menschen haben Schwierigkeiten, konkrete Vorstellungen von ihrer Zukunft zu entwickeln – und genau diese Unklarheit verhindert oft eine sinnvolle langfristige Anlagestrategie. Geldausgeben birgt ebenfalls mentale Hürden: Wir lernen früh, für die Zukunft zu sparen, aber nicht, Geld bewusst auszugeben.

In einer Welt, in der finanzielle Unsicherheit viele Menschen zunehmend belastet, gewinnen Konzepte wie Behavioral Banking und Agentic AI an Relevanz. Banken und FinTechs stehen vor der Herausforderung, nicht nur innovative Produkte zu entwickeln, sondern auch das finanzielle Wohl ihrer Kund:innen aktiv zu fördern – und dabei gleichzeitig regulatorischen Anforderungen wie der EU KI-Verordnung gerecht zu werden.  Doch was versteht man eigentlich unter Behavioral Finance? Was bedeutet die Individualisierung von Finanzprodukten für die Branche? Und welche Rolle kann Agentic AI dabei spielen? Um diese und weitere spannende Aspekte zu beleuchten, haben wir Fabian Mohr, Gründer & CEO bei UnitPlus, und Wiebke Reinhart, Senior Solutions Manager bei SAP Fioneer, eingeladen. Beide bringen unterschiedliche Perspektiven und Erfahrungen mit, wie sich das Zusammenspiel von Behavioral Finance/ Financial Wellbeing  und Agentic AI im Banking und Finanzwesen erfolgreich gestalten lässt. Gemeinsam zeigen wir, wie diese neuen Ansätze das Finanzwesen verändern – mit aktuellen Trends und praktischen Beispielen.

Today, Amy Walls and Jag dive into why it feels like everyone around us has more money, more freedom, or more upgrades than we do — and why that perception is often just that: perception. Social media plays a huge role in this feeling. The constant exposure to curated highlight reels makes it easy to believe others are winning financially, while we're falling behind. Amy points out that what we see online is rarely the whole picture. People share the new boat or vacation, not the credit card debt, parental help, or stress behind the scenes.We also talk about how older stats around side hustles — like claims that 50% of people have them — still influence how we think today, despite more accurate 2025 data showing only 25% of adults actually have one. And affluence is often funded by invisible resources like family wealth or debt, which makes comparisons misleading and self-defeating.Psychologically, we're wired for social comparison, but our brains focus upward. We look at those doing better, rarely at those with less. That creates ever-shifting benchmarks for “enough,” raising the bar as others share their wins. On top of that, algorithms feed us more of what we engage with — usually success stories — which can skew our sense of what's normal.Amy walks us through the reality: the national savings rate is low (4–5%), emergency funds are thin (1 in 5 adults can't handle a $100 surprise), and credit card debt is at an all-time high in 2025. Even those who look like they have it all together might be stretched thin.Why does this all sting so much? Because we've tied our identity to our finances. Falling behind feels like failure. It hits at our self-worth and creates a stress loop: we feel behind, we spend to catch up, and that spending adds more stress. It's emotional and financial burnout.So how do we break the cycle? First, redefine goals based on our own needs. Track progress against your own goals — like building savings or reducing debt — not against someone else's vacation photos. Curate your feeds to remove content that sparks comparison. Write down what “enough” looks like for you in terms of comfort, flexibility, and fun. Celebrate quiet wins like financial stability, and be cautious of lifestyle creep when your income rises.Lastly, Amy reminds us to stay curious instead of competitive. Learn from others without turning it into a race. Real wealth and well-being come from clarity, control, and peace of mind — not what someone else posts online.00:00 – Intro00:35 – Why social media skews our perception01:30 – Debt and side hustle myths03:00 – Why we compare ourselves psychologically04:50 – The illusion of success online05:50 – What's really going on financially nationwide06:50 – Why it hurts to feel behind07:40 – The emotional and financial cost of comparison08:45 – How to reset your goals09:40 – Avoiding lifestyle creep10:25 – Final takeaways and closing To get in touch with Amy and her team at Thimbleberry Financial, call 503-610-6510 or visit thimbleberryfinancial.com.

Financial wellbeing is an increasingly important topic for both employers and employees. A survey of multinational companies by Aon found that 88 percent of employees surveyed experienced financial stress, which has a major impact on resilience, self-esteem and relationships. In this episode of Better Being, our experts — Paul Gordon, Aon's chief commercial officer for global financial wellbeing, and Fleur Iannazzo, financial wellbeing coach and content creator at Aon — explore how understanding and reshaping financial behaviors can lead to lasting financial security. Key Takeaways:There is a notable disconnect between what employees expect and what employers currently provide in terms of financial education and support.Understanding individual financial behaviors is essential for designing effective financial wellbeing programs that resonate with both employees and organizational goals.Financial wellbeing issues vary by sector — some industries face talent loss due to financial mismanagement, while others see spikes in cyber fraud during economic downturns. Experts in this episode:Paul Gordon, Chief Commercial Officer for Global Financial Wellbeing, Aon (Host)Fleur Iannazzo, Financial Wellbeing Coach and Content Creator, Aon   Key moments:(3:24) Financial stress is felt across all salary levels and industries. (5:33) There's a big mismatch between employee expectations of financial wellbeing support and what employers are providing. (13:00) Financial wellbeing is coming to the top of everyone's agenda. Additional Resources:2025 Employee Sentiment Study Soundbites:Paul Gordon: "So just retaining your best people by helping them understand their attitudes to money and how they can do things differently helps that organization." Fleur Iannazzo: "When you feel secure financially and resilient financially, it really improves your relationships and your emotional connections to people because of that independence."

In this episode of The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast, I sit down with James Yount — a longtime listener and social media supporter who reached out to share his personal story of transformation. And after hearing it, I knew we had to record this episode. James has been sober from meth for five years. But his story isn't your typical “before and after.” He was actually overweight during his active addiction — something not often talked about — and has since lost a significant amount of weight as part of his journey back to health. We dive deep into his addiction, what finally led to his rock bottom, and how he found a new path through faith and fitness. James doesn't coach, sell programs, or try to be anything other than what he is: a guy in recovery who's passionate about sharing his story to help others. This is one of those episodes that reminds you why we do this work. It's real, it's raw, and it's full of heart. We cover: James' battle with meth addiction and how he finally got clean The unique challenge of being overweight during active addiction How faith became the foundation of his recovery The role fitness played in rebuilding his life What keeps him grounded today — five years sober and thriving Whether you're in recovery, know someone who is, or just need a reminder of the power of redemption — this one's worth a listen.     Register for our June 3rd masterclass - click here   Interested in working with a coach?

Here's a fact: For many years, I didn't know that our money mindset has a direct relationship with how powerful we feel and how we move through our professional and personal lives.I didn't get the connection, and I have been in financial services for over 25 years. After I dove into all things on leadership, self-improvement, and energetic management, I learned that there is a positive correlation between our money, speaking up, and the energy associated with feeling powerful as a woman. If we feel good about our money, we will speak up more. We will feel more confident. We will make powerful choices. We will be braver at work and at home.My guest today, Aja Evans, is the first financial therapist I have interviewed. I have interviewed financial coaches before, but not financial therapists.
