A light-hearted exploration of the emotional side of money.

But then real life gets in the way, we're tired or frustrated or busy and somehow everything has slipped again. Money coach, Martha Lawton asks expert guests about how we normal humans can understand our financial behaviour and use that knowledge to manage money in ways that actually work in our messy, complicated lives.

This week’s topic is blended families, which is to say families where at least one partner has children from a previous relationship. Our guest is financial adviser and coach Catherine Thomas-Humphreys who specialises in helping parents and families create new, confident, positive money relationships that work for them, to support what they want to really enjoy in life so they can focus on what really matters most to them. We discuss breaking up and keeping a "channel of civility", finding new partners and getting the money side right from the start, and handling grandparents and your ex's new romantic interest.

Ugh taxes.... so stressful and boring.... Most of us just want someone else to sort our tax returns without us having to think about it, but tax experts are kind of expensive, right? You'd think in the digital age there would be a better way. That's the problem that TaxScouts co-founder Tram Abramov set out to solve and it seems to be working. Along the way he's faced some highly relatable business challenges and made an excellent, though unintended, contribution to women's empowerment. In the end though, as he tells us, even though he runs a tech business, the most important place for him to focus is always on the people. Tram gives us some tips for making taxes less stressful whether you use TaxScouts or DIY.

Automating aspects of your finances is convenient and ensures that you won’t forget to make important payments. On the flip side, automation leads to disengagement, when your finances seem to manage themselves why take the time to pay attention to them? This is especially true for people who lead busy complex lives and those who have mental health needs or are otherwise neurodivergent. There are areas of our finances where it’s important to be aware of what’s happening, especially because companies combine automated and manual processes carefully to make us pay more for goods and services than we might otherwise do. This episode is about finding the balance between convenience and mindfulness when it comes to our money. What needs our attention and what can we set up and allow to run itself? This episode was recorded at home and without editing. Please be understanding about the sound, ums and ahs.

When a gift seems very high cost compared to the income or wealth of the giver or the receiver, it can cause feelings other than gratitude. Questions arise about motives and expectations. Can they afford it and what do they want in return? And can I afford that? Some people give for the pleasure of giving, but some give to be recognised, to hide feelings of inadequacy or to place the receiver in their debt. What can we do to make gift giving a pleasurable experience all round? And how can we react when gift giving goes wrong?

Have you ever thought that your children see you spending money in shops, but they probably don’t see when you’re saving, investing or paying the bills? So what are they learning about money from what they see you do? Wouldn’t it be great if you knew how to teach your children the right lessons about money at the right ages so they grow up with the mindset and habits to build wealth and be confident around money even from a young age. This week our guest is Will Rainey from Blue Tree Savings who is an expert in teaching kids to be great with money. Will makes money easy and fun with stories and games. He has ideas about how your child can practise money skills before they even start school, learning more and more as they get older, preparing them, step by step, for adult life. Will is the author of "Grandpa's Fortune Fables: Fun stories to teach kids about money".

Ever played a video game long after you meant to stop? What about staying in a toxic workplace or relationship? Ever looked back and thought "Why did I keep doing that?!" It might be operant conditioning - the way we respond to rewards especially unreliable and unpredictable rewards. Skinner Boxes (developed by BF Skinner) are a tool psychologists use to study animal behaviour, which can teach us about our choices as humans, and why we sometimes act against our own interests. Especially when we're faced with casinos, high-stress jobs, and charming but moody people. In this solo episode Martha explains how to spot a Skinner Box and how to get out before it costs you a fortune.

This episode's guest, Dennis Harhalakis is a money coach who helps his clients reveal the balance of money archetypes they relate to most strongly.

Do you think if only you talk about your wishes in just the right way the universe will give you whatever you want? Do you believe fortune is a result of positive thinking and being "energetically aligned" for success? We hate to break it to you, but what goes on inside your head stays there. Only what makes it out in the form of your actions, words, tone and body language are affecting the course of your life. So why do people persist in believing that if they daydream just right their wildest fantasies will be manifested? And what's the harm in wanting a little magic in our lives?
