What does your future financial self really need from you today?

In this episode of A Little Bit Richer, our host Iona Bain is joined by financial educator and content creator Tolu Frimpong to explore the powerful (and often overlooked) relationship between your present-day decisions and your longer-term wealth.

Tolu shares the real-life choices and mindset shifts that transformed her relationship with money. And together, they unpack being stuck in “survival mode” with finances, why you can’t afford not to invest in your future and how your identity shapes your financial outcomes.

If you’ve ever told yourself “I’ll start saving later” or “I just don’t have enough,” this episode will challenge that thinking and give you practical ways to start showing up for your future self today and make that life a little bit richer.

Because whether you plan for it or not… your future is coming.
