With Special Guest, Trading Expert Louise Bedford and I Have A Candid Chat About Mindset Trading and Investing | EP51

46m · Centsability · 20 Feb 05:36

Although I was getting Louise on to share her expertise about trading, we found ourselves further unpacking the importance of having a long-term view as well as setting short term goals with the catalyst being getting our mindset right when it comes to investing.

It's not surprising to hear that only 26% of American women get involved in investing in the stock market and that they tend to be less aggressive in their approach compared to men. But did you know that many studies have shown that women tend to outperform their male counterparts in investing? Despite this, only 9% of women believe they make better investors than men.

Recent stats also came out of a white paper whereby Netwealth interviewed Australian women of all ages to get an idea of their attitude to investing, their confidence around money management and financial literacy. Click this link (https://www.netwealth.com.au/web/insights/the-advisable-australian/women-investors/?utm_source=Adviser&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=2023-Advisable_Australian) to this white paper – the fact is when it comes to women, we often lack confidence – often derived by fear caused by subconscious programming.

But this does not mean we are not good at investing – on the contrary: Investments managed by women during 2022’s market draw down fared better than assets managed by male counterparts. The analysis examined returns from 80 investment portfolios across 73 asset managers.

Interestingly, the evidence also suggests that in times of stress, female fund managers take less risk than male fund managers, but they achieve the same performance.

Changing Our Financial Narratives, Part 2 | EP56

It’s all about candour and calling out systemic inequity on this episode of Centsability with Amie Baker. She’s welcoming back Dawn Thomas, Senior Financial Adviser at The Wealth Designer, for a high-energy chat about what’s not working for women. And how we can get brave, speak up and take steps to build on positive change of the kind represented by Australia’s newly adopted Workplace Gender Equality Amendment (https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/C2023A00018/Html/). The conversation touches on everything from important liabilities women need to keep in mind at every stage of their careers – from salary negotiation to parity in child care burden to asking for that overdue pay raise. You’ll also hear a profound call to action related to helping younger women recognize their power (as well as the power of superannuation over time as a tool for building wealth). Get ready to challenge social conditioning and break traditional gender roles. The time has come and these two financial planning experts are empowering us with case studies, stats and strategies for having those difficult – but necessary – conversations! Says Dawn: “We’re talking about a huge systemic shift that needs to happen – and valuing women as a whole when we are being undervalued.”

Changing Our Financial Narratives | EP55

Many of us think immediately of the economic nuts and bolts when it comes to financial planning, but this episode of Centsability is focused on the big picture, including the emotional baggage many of us carry when it comes to money. Host Amie Baker invites her good friend, Dawn Thomas, to share thoughts about her journey as a Senior Financial Adviser at The Wealth Designers. Their conversation takes on thorny issues such as shame, fear and scarcity thinking – negative mindsets that can keep us stuck in an unhealthy (often counterproductive) relationship with money. “I’m not here just to put a spreadsheet in your face,” says Dawn, who is also the host of Your Money Story(https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/your-money-story/id1555980141). “If you want to work with me as an adviser, it’s really got to be a pretty open, brutal, honest relationship.” It’s all about getting real! You’ll come away from this discussion with a clearer understanding of the holistic role financial advisers play – not just when we’ve amassed wealth but in the early stages of planning that set the stage for long-term freedom. Herself a graduate of Amie’s Money Mindset course, Dawn explains her deepened understanding around how the stories we tell ourselves can block us from visioning the lives we want and deserve. Enjoy Part I of what will be a multi-part exploration of women, financial literacy and how to embrace mindsets that foster abundance and banish fear!

Why Fashion & Personal Style Are Not the Same! | EP54

We’ve all experienced it: Standing in front of our wardrobe feeling drab, drained and uninspired. Don’t blame it on the clothes! As we’re learning on this episode of Centsability, a personal style refresh may be all you need. My guest, Gessica Marmotta, isn’t talking about a huge and costly shopping spree or the latest designer brand. Her coaching framework is all about uncovering and connecting with a personal style that is truly our own. Much as a financial advisor knows how to cultivate successful money mindsets, Gessica’s styling services cultivate our most successful selves – radiant, confident and unique. Under her watchful eye, my wardrobe underwent a total transformation; an empowering adventure that resulted not only in the reimagination of pieces I already had but the addition of some simple, affordable items that tied everything together in new and exciting ways. It’s important self-care that pays amazing dividends! You’ll learn about the importance of developing a signature style as well as exploring colors and accessories you’ve long thought you shouldn’t wear. We’re also sharing five great ideas to liven up your wardrobe and a call to action for anyone clinging to negative programming or limiting beliefs. Who we are isn’t what we wear, but what we wear can certainly influence how we feel and show up in the world. So join us for a deep dive into the power of creating a “visual voice,” how individual style differs from trendy fashion and why getting help from a coach is an incredibly savvy investment, both professionally and personally!
