As we get closer to the More Money Podcast’s 10-year anniversary this June, I wanted to bring back some of my favourite and most popular episodes from the archives to celebrate the show’s decade-long run. And there’s no better episode to start with than my very first one! I share my comments at the end of the episode after listening to it again and wow, it’s wild how much can change over the years! Also, a big thanks to all of you listeners who have been with me from the beginning. You’ve literally changed my life and given me the best career ever.

To continue from last week, I wanted to share another excerpt from my now bestselling book
"Everything but Money: The Hidden Barriers Between You and Financial Freedom" so you can get a feel for the book (and audiobook especially since I narrated it), to see if it’s something you’d like to buy or borrow from your local library. This excerpt is from Chapter 1.

People sure have a lot to say about how you spend your money. The funny thing is, those people don't know you as well as you know yourself. So why would you listen to their advice or opinions, when the real person you should be listening to is yourself?
This notion is what inspired Jen Smith and Jill Sirianni, co-hosts of The Frugal Friends Podcast, to write their book Buy What You Love Without Going Broke: Transform Your Spending and Get More of What Money Can't Buy. They wanted to help people transform their spending by cutting out the noise so they could finally start listening to their own needs, wants, and values so they can feel empowered, not shamed, for how they spend their money.
You may remember Jen and Jill from episode 351 where they shared their stories of getting out of debt and finding freedom through frugality. If you liked that episode, you're going to love this one and their new book!

What sets us apart from the best investors in the world, like Sir John Templeton, Jack Bogle, Ed Thorp, and Howard Marks? What hidden talents do they have that made them millionaires or billionaires? And what lessons can we take away from their journeys that can help us become better investors too?
William Green, financial journalist and author of Richer, Wiser, Happier: How the World's Greatest Investors Win in Markets and Life, joins me on the podcast to share what he was able to glean from interviewing these major players in the financial industry. He also breaks down what we can learn from their successes and failures, including the fact that money isn't everything.

What's the driving force behind your money habits? Where did you learn your beliefs and values about money? What are some of the psychological hurdles you've encountered most of your life, preventing you from reaching your full financial potential? I discuss these questions and more with financial psychotherapist Vicky Reynal, author of Money on Your Mind: The Unconscious Beliefs That Sabotage Your Financial Well-Being and How to Break Free.
In her book, she shares client stories, case studies, and her professional expertise on how to overcome those psychological barriers, find their root causes, and develop a path forward to achieve a brighter financial future.

What does the “American Dream” mean to you? Or if you live in Canada like me, the “Canadian Dream”? Personally, I think it’s something only you can define for yourself, but for me it means living in a country that gives you access, freedom, opportunity, a voice, and the potential to reach heights you never thought possible when it comes to your career, finances, and life in general.
In this podcast episode with Mark Matson, author of Experiencing The American Dream: How to Invest Your Time, Energy, and Money to Create an Extraordinary Life, we discuss this topic in-depth including how the “Dream” is still alive despite what some people may think, how money itself can’t make you happy (so don’t lose sight of what matters), how to create your own purpose, and how to actually realize your the “Dream” by investing strategically for the future.

Isn't it amazing how, no matter where you live in the world, we can all be doing the exact same thing like chasing financial freedom? Sure, there may be different tax rules, account types, and even strategies depending on the country, but at the end of the day, the actual steps to build wealth and achieve your financial goals can look the same no matter where you live.
To prove this point, I invited Natasha Etschmann and Ana Kresina on the podcast who both live in Australia. Ana is originally from Canada (we went to the same university!), so she has a unique perspective on personal finance in Canada and Australia. Natasha has become one of the biggest financial content creators in Australia with a following in the hundreds of thousands.
Together, they've teamed up to write the book How To Not Work Forever: Start Investing and Build a Life You Love to help people in Australia and anywhere in the world achieve financial freedom so they can, well, not work forever. Ana also wrote the book Kids Ain't Cheap: How to Plan Financially for Parenthood and Your Family's Future to help parents navigate the financial change of becoming a parent.

With everything going on in the world — the climate crisis, wars overseas, the widening wealth gap — it can often feel like our voices don't matter and we have little control over the future. Although it can feel like that, the good news is that it doesn't have to be that way.
Especially if we make sure to use our money for good. And that's exactly what Kara Perez explores in her book Green Money: How to Reduce Waste, Build Wealth, and Create a Better Future for All. She offers insight into some of the biggest obstacles we're facing, such as the push for overconsumption, reliance on fossil fuels, and unjust systems, while also offering practical solutions for how we can all play our part in securing a better future for us and the generations behind us. She also provides specific guidance on how we can build wealth and achieve financial freedom without having to compromise our ethics or values. In other words, when it comes to being more green with your money but also making sure you take care of yourself, you actually can do both!
This book holds a really special place in my heart because Kara and I were working on our books at the same time, plus I've known Kara for years and is one of the most genuine people in the personal finance space. I hope you enjoy this interview and her book as much as I did.

I became a fully self-directed investor in 2021 and no exaggeration, it was one of the best financial decisions I've ever made! Up until then, I'd used an advisor, then switched to a robo-advisor. But then I came to a point where I wanted more control over my investments, not to mention wanting to save more money on fees. Even though the transition from leaving my robo-advisor to going self-directed through a discount brokerage was fairly seamless, making the switch was still intimidating and I know that's been a common sentiment from students in my Wealth Building Blueprint for Canadians course as well.
That's why I wanted to invite An Le, Business Development Manager at National Bank Direct Brokerage, on the podcast to discuss all the ins and outs of becoming a self-directed investor from setting up your account, developing an investment strategy, and placing your first trade. This is an essential listen to anyone who wants to start investing on their own but isn't sure what steps to take.
