Our Editor's Take

It's Not About the Money is a UK-based financial podcast. It started in 2019 as the In Her Financial Shoes podcast. The show is a resource to help women feel more empowered about finances. It talks about finances in a holistic way. It addresses how mental health, confidence, and other factors influence finance. For example, the podcast has covered the psychology around subscription services. It discusses shifting one's mindset from scarcity to wealth. This is only a small snippet of the topics on the show, yet it indicates the overall theme.

Host Catherine Morgan has been an entrepreneur and financial advisor for more than two decades. She authored a book that is also called It's Not About the Money. She founded a company and is a regular media personality. But she hasn't forgotten what it is like to struggle. So the host presents the concepts in the podcast in a digestible manner.

It's no secret that money discussions can become complicated. Listeners should know there is no risk of that in It's Not About the Money. Morgan makes every topic-even the complex ones-feel approachable. The podcast is great for everyone from money novices to experienced investors.

The title of the show pretty much says it all. It's about more than money. Yes, there is a financial lens. But it also mentions goals, intentions, successes, and education. It's not a coincidence that these things influence one's finances. It's Not About the Money may teach people how to understand and leverage this impact for good. It aims to remove the taboo around talking about money. With a view to creating healthy, positive relationships around finance, this podcast is for anyone who deals with money. Sure enough, that's pretty much everyone!

In this episode of It’s Not About The Money (formerly In Her Financial Shoes), I discuss the three signs that indicate you are on your way to your next financial breakthrough.  The first sign is detaching from the need for money and shifting from a mindset of lack to gratitude and abundance.
