S2 E1 Unleashing your Financial Superpowers!

The Swan Effect - Creating and Sustaining Your Financial Wellbeing

We Are Back on Air!
After a hiatus of 8 months, The Swan Effect Podcast is launching Season 2 with host Arthi Rabikrisson and co-host Malika Petersen!
As August is Woman's month in South Africa, this episode spotlights that we women have the ability to unleash our financial superpowers, given inherent strengths and capabilities. Many of these are actually shaped by our narratives or stories of how money was managed around us. Arthi shares her narrative around her mum being key to controlling the disbursement of money in the household even though her dad was the sole income earner. This has shaped how hands on Arthi is with her money management. Malika shared an opposite narrative of a friend who's father controlled every financial decision in the household, resulting in her friend not wanting to take control of her own finances today. And yet, within both those narratives, lie very key traits that actually can be those financial superpowers that lead us on the path to financial wellbeing.
Listen in to the discussion where we share:

• Superpower 1: Know your Money Pot
• Superpower 2: Monetise your passions
• Superpower 3: the P-T-P (plan-track-plan some more!)
• Superpower 4: Spending Leash

We also offer some practical advice and ideas on how to move ahead with using these superpowers, through budgeting, will and commitment to the plan, and of course, over time, resulting in this augmenting the narrative we each have with our personal finances and investments.
We would love to hear your views based on the concepts covered in this episode.
