Briony Benjamin steps in as guest host of Get Rich while Molly is on maternity leave, and she's bringing you one of our most practical episodes yet!

    How to Build Confidence as a Woman, The Neuroscience Behind Self-Doubt

    Why do so many smart, capable women second-guess themselves? In this episode of Get Rich, Molly sits down with Caroline Brewin, former investment banker turned confidence coach and neuroscience expert, to unpack the science behind self-doubt and how to build real, lasting confidence. After 18 years in investment banking, Caroline saw firsthand how talented women held themselves back, not because they weren’t capable, but because they didn’t back themselves.

In this episode, we cover: Why your brain is wired for safety, not success• Why women often have a louder inner critic• Whether confidence is something you’re born with or can build• Simple daily rituals to boost confidence fast• How to stop overthinking and start taking action• The link between money confidence and self-belief If you’ve ever hesitated before speaking up in a meeting, asking for a pay rise, investing your money or making a big life decision, this episode is for you.

    The Insurance Mistake Most Women Don’t Realise They’re Making

    Most people see insurance as boring, optional, or something they’ll deal with “later”.But the truth is, insurance is one of the very few things that can completely change the trajectory of your life, not when things are going well, but when they aren’t. In this episode of Get Rich, Molly Benjamin is joined by insurance advisor Trish Gregory from Hayes & Co Insurance Services, to break down what insurance actually does, the mistakes people don’t realise they’re making, and the real-life moments where having the right cover makes all the difference. They unpack income protection, life insurance, total and permanent disability (TPD), and trauma insurance, why so many women are underinsured (even when they earn good money), and why waiting until something goes wrong is often the most expensive mistake of all. Molly also shares why she only updated her own insurance recently, what she assumed was covered through her super, and the moment she realised she was only protected for two years, not decades. This is a practical, honest conversation about protecting your income, your future, and your choices, before you need to. In this episode you'll learn: The real difference between life insurance, TPD, trauma, and income protection, and what each one actually covers Why so many women are dangerously underinsured, even if they earn “good money” The most common insurance mistakes people make, and why fixing them later can cost more Real-life examples of when insurance becomes life-changing, not just “nice to have” How insurance inside super works, and when it’s not enough on its own When and how to get insurance set up properly, before health or life changes make it harder If you want to connect with Trish, Click here - https://directory.ladiesfinanceclub.com/listing/trish-gregory/   💌 Want more money tips straight to your inbox?Join thousands of Australian women getting savvy with their finances -subscribe to the Ladies Finance Club newsletter for the latest money hacks, expert advice, and exclusive event invites!

    How They Get You: The Everyday Money Traps (And How To Beat Them)

    In this episode of Get Rich, Molly Benjamin sits down with finance journalist and creator Chris Kohler (700k+ on Instagram) to unpack the sneaky ways Australians lose money without even noticing. Based on Chris’s book How They Get You, this chat covers the everyday “money traps” hiding in plain sight, from subscription creep and food delivery markups, to loyalty programs that don’t truly reward you, drip pricing, and the psychology of tap-and-go spending. You’ll learn how modern payments and marketing are designed to make spending feel painless, why “being loyal” can cost you more, and what small habits quietly blow up your budget over time. Chris also shares his simple “Hell Day” strategy, a practical system for negotiating bills and cutting recurring costs in one focused hit. If you want to feel more confident, more in control, and way harder for companies to “get”, this episode is a must-listen.

    Divorcing in Your 40s? What Every Woman Needs to Know Before Separating

    Divorce and separation in your 40s can feel overwhelming, emotional, and financially terrifying, especially if you’ve spent years prioritising your family, your partner, or their career over your own. In Australia, the average age women are divorcing is around 44 years old, yet so many women reach this moment feeling unprepared and unsure of their legal and financial rights. In this episode of Get Rich, Molly Benjamin is joined by Australian family lawyer Samantha Lewis to unpack what women actually need to know before separating, legally, financially, and emotionally. We cover the biggest myths women believe about divorce, why “just wanting things to be fair” can quietly leave you financially worse off, and the critical mistakes many women make in the first few weeks after separation. You’ll learn: How separating in your 40s is legally and financially different from your 20s or 30s Why it doesn’t matter whose name assets, property, or superannuation are in How non-financial contributions, like raising children or supporting a partner’s career, are treated under Australian family law What to do before money or assets start disappearing Why superannuation is often one of the biggest assets in a separation How women can fund legal advice, even if they don’t currently have access to money The one-year deadline after divorce that could cost you everything if you miss it Why it’s never too late to start again financially, even in your 40s or 50s This is an empowering, practical conversation for Australian women who are separated, divorcing, thinking about leaving, or supporting a friend who is. It’s not about fear, it’s about clarity, confidence, and knowing your rights before you make life-changing decisions. 🎧 Listen with your notes app open, then send this episode to a woman who needs it.
