In this empowering Start Here episode, Canna answers a listener’s heartfelt question:

“Is income protection worth it — even if it means slowing down my mortgage-free goals?”

Canna breaks down what income protection really is, why it matters, and how to make it work within your budget, not against it.
From holding cover inside super to adjusting waiting periods and benefit structures, she explains practical, real-world strategies for protecting your most valuable asset — your ability to earn — while staying focused on your long-term financial freedom.

This episode will help you understand:
✅ What income protection actually does — and how it fits into your financial plan.
✅ Smart, budget-friendly ways to afford it without sacrificing your mortgage goals.
✅ The risks and trade-offs to be aware of.
✅ Why this protection can give you peace of mind and confidence, not financial pressure.

Remember: this is general advice only — always seek personal advice before making financial decisions.
