How does your attitude towards money affect your current finances and shape your long-term financial wellbeing? And where does this mindset come from?

From your spending and saving habits to how much you can earn and what you think you’re worth. It has all been quietly shaped by your family, your upbringing and your friends. All the little messages you were absorbing without even realising have played a part in shaping your attitude towards finances or money script. And it ultimately shapes your future financial wellbeing.

In this episode of A Little Bit Richer, our host Iona Bain is joined by Selina Flavius, Financial Coach and Author of Black Girl Finance. Selina went from having a huge fear around money and debt, to shifting her attitude and allowing herself to thrive financially. Together they delve into the different money scripts we have, the behaviours they encourage and how we might want to re-write them if they’re not serving us.

Iona and her guests share their own personal thoughts and opinions in this podcast. These might be different from L&G’s take on things. They give financial guidance for a UK audience that’s relevant at the time of recording. It’s general best practice, not the kind of personalised advice you’d get from a financial adviser.
