Shame it didn’t continue
Great listen but no new episodes
Surprised
I follow Gemma on instagram so when I saw Gemma had a finance podcast been from a finance background thought I definitely have to listen. I accidentally went to 3rd episode and was very surprised by the content but support the ingenuity of people who can make money off a side hustle. Definitely an opener but in a good way!
I think this podcast has brought finance into the modern world.
