    What I'd Do If I Had to Start Again Financially at 35 - Ep. 155

    If you had to start again financially at 35, with everything you know now, what would you actually do? In this solo episode of Accelerating Your Wealth, Rebecca Robertson turns that question into a calm, practical reset that works at any age. This is about action, not guilt. Rebecca walks through the 'shoulda woulda coulda' trap so many of us carry, then lays out the real first step most people skip: knowing your numbers, and builds up from there to foundations, investing and the mindset that keeps it all going. We explore: · Why financial guilt holds us back, and how to set it down · The first step almost everyone skips: actually knowing your income and outgoings · Why you should never put your bank statements into ChatGPT or any AI · How even 100 pounds a month, left alone, can change your future · Progress, not perfection, as the mindset that makes it stick Timestamps: 00:00 What would I do if I had to start again at 35? 01:32 Letting go of financial guilt 03:52 Step one: know your numbers 05:24 Core outgoings versus the fun stuff 08:28 Why you should never put your bank statements into AI 11:38 Building your emergency fund and foundations 13:56 Why even £100 a month matters 15:27 How inflation quietly erodes your cash 16:14 Pensions and the tax free lump sum 17:02 Book a money date with yourself 18:36 Progress, not perfection Key Takeaways · Start from where you are, guilt does not move you forward · You cannot plan with a financial picture you can't see, so know your numbers · Keep your bank details off ChatGPT and any AI · Build foundations first, an emergency fund and protection, then invest · Cash that isn't keeping up with inflation is quietly losing value Join the Conversation If you had to start again at 35, what is the first thing you would do? Tell us in the comments, and share this with someone who needs a calm place to begin.   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Rebecca Robertson and the Podcast: Subscribe for weekly wealth-building strategies: https://www.youtube.com/@rebeccarobertsonifa Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rebecca_robertsonifa & https://www.instagram.com/acceleratingyourwealth LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-financial-advisor Facebook :https://www.facebook.com/RebeccaRobertsonwealth www.evolutionfinancialplanning.co.uk Disclaimer: This content is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be construed as financial advice.

    The True Cost of Motherhood and How to Take Back Control, with Elizabeth Willetts - Part 2.

    The True Cost of Motherhood and How to Take Back Control, with Elizabeth Willetts.  In Part 2 of my conversation with Elizabeth Willetts we move from her story to the practical side. How to ask for a pay rise and back it up with real value, what the job market and AI mean for women's careers and why she believes building a business is one of the strongest routes to financial independence. We also dig into her book Flex, the trap of quietly accepting what you are given and why she is convinced your network really is your net worth. If you are thinking about a career pivot, weighing up a return to work or simply want to be paid what you are worth, there is a lot here to take away. This is Part 2 of two. If you missed Part 1, go back and start there.

    The Hidden Costs of Motherhood, with Elizabeth Willetts.

    In this episode, I sit down with Elizabeth Willetts, founder of Investing in Women and author of Flex. We talk through her career from recruitment in the City to building a business that helps women find flexible, part-time work that fits around their lives. Elizabeth is honest about the parts we usually keep quiet. Being made redundant while pregnant. The years of trying for a baby. And the financial cost of motherhood that follows women around for decades. We get into the numbers, too, including how far earnings can drop in the first five years after a first child and what that does to the pension gap later on. If you have ever felt the system was set up against you or wondered why flexible work is so hard to find at a senior level, this is a conversation worth your time. This is Part 1 of two. Part 2 comes out on Monday, so do subscribe to be notified.

  4. Why Do We Ignore Our Pensions? - Ep. 152

    Why Do We Ignore Our Pensions? - Ep. 152

    Why Do We Ignore Our Pensions? I ignored my own pension for years, even while I worked in a bank. In this solo episode I talk about why pensions feel so easy to avoid, and the simple steps that turn them from a distant worry into real opportunity. Why do so many of us look away from our pensions? They feel distant, complicated and invisible, so the statements go in a drawer and we promise to deal with it another day. In this episode I am honest about the fact that I did exactly that for years, even while I worked in financial services. ----- If you want more from the podcast, take our quiz. We'll give you playlists that are full of exactly the information you want from the podcast. https://evolutionfinancialplanning.co.uk/financial-well-being-quiz/podcast-financial-wellbeing-quiz/ ----- I share the moment pensions went from a chore to something I genuinely love, and why I see what they do for my clients every week. One couple I worked with can now retire ten years earlier than they thought and spend that time travelling while they are fit and well. That is what a well planned pension can buy. Not just security, but opportunity. I also talk about the psychology of avoidance, the tax relief and employer contributions that behave like free money, the confusion that builds up when you have several old pensions, and why a new job is often the moment people finally start to pay attention. Then I share the practical steps that move you from avoidance to control. Key Takeaways · A pension is one of the few places your employer and the government top up your money for you · Avoidance is usually overwhelm, not laziness · Finding old pensions and keeping a simple list is the best first step · Consolidation can help or hurt, so understand what you hold before moving anything · Plan around the future life you want, not just the size of the pot If you do one thing this week, go and find your pensions and make a list. If you would like a second pair of eyes, you can book a no obligation conversation with me or my team at Evolution Financial Planning.

    Are Women Really Bad With Money? Exploring Financial Myths and Realities - Ep. 151

    Are women bad with money?! In this solo episode Rebecca Robertson takes apart one of the most damaging myths in personal finance. The short answer is no. Women are not bad with money. The system was built to leave them out of it. Rebecca traces the myth back through history, from a time when women could not open a bank account without a husband present, to the classroom narrative that girls are no good at maths. Then she shares her own story: dyslexic, an F in maths and three GCSEs, now an independent financial adviser looking after more than a hundred clients. This is a personal and practical look at why so many women say they're bad with money despite making strong financial decisions every day. Rebecca unpicks the difference between a confidence gap and a competence gap, explains why "I haven't been taught yet" is more honest than "I'm just no good at this", and shows how reframing the story from "bad with money" to "under supported with money" changes everything. She also gets specific about the numbers. The gender pension gap, the higher rate of career breaks among women and the tendency to hold long-term savings in cash all compound over time, which means women often need to be more financially savvy, not less. What you'll learn: Where the "women are bad with money" myth actually comes from Why no man is a financial plan, and what abdicating financial responsibility really costs The difference between a confidence gap and a competence gap Why women are often strong spenders but hesitant long-term planners How the language of "I haven't been taught yet" keeps people stuck Why it matters that around 85% of financial advisers are men Risk aversion vs risk awareness, and how sitting in cash can quietly erode your wealth How career breaks and caregiving drive the gender pension gap Practical first steps: reframing the narrative, talking to your partner and building a money buddy system Chapters 00:00 Are women bad with money? 00:48 Where the myth begins 02:13 No man is a financial plan 03:28 From an F in maths to financial adviser 05:27 Strong spenders, hesitant planners 07:21 "I haven't been taught yet" 08:23 How financial services alienate women 10:22 Risk aversion vs risk awareness 12:07 A client story: when sitting in cash costs you 15:07 Why women make better long-term investors 16:40 Career breaks, caregiving and the pension hit 18:10 Fear of getting it wrong 19:52 Baby steps and reframing the narrative 21:56 The numbers behind the gap 24:08 What you can do today 26:46 Final thoughts --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Rebecca Robertson and the Podcast: Subscribe for weekly wealth-building strategies: https://www.youtube.com/@rebeccarobertsonifa Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rebecca_robertsonifa & https://www.instagram.com/acceleratingyourwealth LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-financial-advisor Facebook :https://www.facebook.com/RebeccaRobertsonwealth www.evolutionfinancialplanning.co.uk Disclaimer: This content is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be construed as financial advice.

  7. Your Money Story Is Running Your Life | How to Rewrite It - Ep. 149 Part 2

    Your Money Story Is Running Your Life | How to Rewrite It - Ep. 149 Part 2

    Your Money Story Is Running Your Life | How to Rewrite It - Ep. 149 Part 2 What happens when a simple conversation about remortgaging triggers a full emotional breakdown? In Part 2 of this conversation with life and leadership coach Rose Latham, Rebecca Robertson digs into the moment Rose realised her entire financial identity was built on fear, inherited money stories and a self-worth wound she didn't know was there. They explore how to uncover your own money story and start rewriting it. Picking up where Part 1 left off, Rose shares the kitchen conversation with her husband that cracked everything open. A routine chat about remortgaging triggered a flood of emotion that revealed just how tightly her financial worth was tangled with her identity as a mother, a partner and a professional. Rose walks through how she started unpicking that story, from reading Barbara Stanny's "Overcoming Underearning" to having honest conversations with her mum about generational money patterns. Rebecca shares her own parallel: a father who grew up in genuine poverty after a coal mine accident left his family with nothing, and how that shaped her own relationship with money without her ever realising it. The episode closes with two practical exercises anyone can do today to start understanding their own money story and what's really driving their financial decisions. What You'll Learn: - Why a routine money conversation can trigger a disproportionate emotional response - How to recognise the signs of underearning (it's not just about salary) - The generational money stories that silently shape your financial behaviour - How to separate your self-worth from your bank balance - Two practical exercises to uncover your hidden money beliefs Connect with Rose Latham: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/roselathamcoaching/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rose.latham.127 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roselatham.lifecoaching/ Chapters 0:00 Cold open: "My heart started racing and I started crying" 1:43 Welcome back to Part 2 2:34 The door in the wall you didn't know was there 3:08 Self-worth and finances: the connection Rose didn't see 4:26 The remortgage conversation that broke everything open 5:14 "You make a terrible coach, but you're completely right" 6:00 What success actually means as a family 7:17 The challenge of pricing yourself as a new coach 8:54 Building confidence to charge what you're worth 9:21 When the work has nothing to do with you 10:46 Discovering "Overcoming Underearning" by Barbara Stanny 11:28 Having an honest conversation with Mum about money 12:50 Rebecca's dad: growing up with nothing after a mining accident 14:01 "If you don't shine a light on it, it runs you" 15:41 Spending money as fast as it arrives 16:20 Top tips: tell the truth about your numbers 17:21 The "Money Is..." exercise 18:10 Where to find Rose and her money exercises PDF 19:15 Outro and subscribe #SelfWorth #MoneyMindset #AcceleratingYourWealth #FinancialPlanning #WealthCoach #MoneyBeliefs #PersonalFinance #LeadershipCoaching #WomenAndMoney #ClassAndMoney --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Rebecca Robertson and the Podcast: Subscribe for weekly wealth-building strategies: https://www.youtube.com/@rebeccarobertsonifa Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rebecca_robertsonifa Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/acceleratingyourwealth LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-financial-advisor Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RebeccaRobertsonwealth Website: https://www.evolutionfinancialplanning.co.uk Disclaimer: This content is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be construed as financial advice.

  8. Self-Worth and Money: The Hidden Money Beliefs Holding You Back - Ep. 149 Pt. 1

    Self-Worth and Money: The Hidden Money Beliefs Holding You Back - Ep. 149 Pt. 1

    Self-Worth and Money: The Hidden Money Beliefs Holding You Back - Ep. 149 Pt. 1. How does your self-worth affect your income? In this episode, Rebecca Robertson sits down with life and leadership coach Rose Latham to explore how childhood money stories, class identity and unconscious beliefs shape what we earn and what we think we deserve. From growing up as "the posh kid" to feeling out of place at Oxford and turning down corporate opportunities in favour of stacking shelves, Rose's story reveals how deeply our sense of worth is wired into our relationship with money. Rose Latham is a life and leadership coach for CEOs and MDs who want to lead more strategically without carrying the business alone. But before she got there, she had to confront a deeply embedded belief system that kept her playing small financially, even with a degree from Oxford. In Part one of this two-part conversation, Rose shares how growing up as the "posh family" in a Wiltshire village shaped her early money identity, how arriving at Oxford flipped that narrative completely, and why she walked away from every corporate graduate opportunity without even attending a single evening. Rebecca draws powerful parallels from her own experience, from working in a bank at 19 to navigating class assumptions around ambition. Together they dig into how the education system reinforces a "work hard = compliance" narrative, why the teaching profession fed Rose's low self-worth, and what it really costs when you try to fill a hole in your identity with a salary. What You'll Learn: How childhood money stories create unconscious limits on what you earn Why class identity shifts can shake your confidence at critical career moments The real reason "working hard" doesn't always lead to financial reward How self-worth and salary are connected (and what to do about it) Why the UK education system may be reinforcing unhealthy money beliefs Connect with Rose Latham: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/roselathamcoaching/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rose.latham.127 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roselatham.lifecoaching/  Chapters 0:00 Introduction and welcome 1:30 How do you measure your self-worth? 3:15 Growing up as "the posh family" in Wiltshire 6:40 Arriving at Oxford: from big fish to small fish 11:20 State school kids sticking together at uni 15:00 The milk round: "This isn't for me" 20:30 Working at Tesco's and pubs instead of KPMG 24:00 Rebecca's parallel story — working in a bank at 19 27:45 Graduating with no experience: a humbling reality check 31:30 The power of networks and a free trip to Brazil 35:50 Learning Spanish at 26 and five years in South America 39:00 Coming back to the UK and going into teaching 42:30 How teaching fed the low self-worth narrative 46:00 "You could have paid me double and it wouldn't have been enough"   #SelfWorth #MoneyMindset #AcceleratingYourWealth #FinancialPlanning #WealthCoach #MoneyBeliefs #PersonalFinance #LeadershipCoaching #WomenAndMoney #ClassAndMoney   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Rebecca Robertson and the Podcast: Subscribe for weekly wealth-building strategies: https://www.youtube.com/@rebeccarobertsonifa Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rebecca_robertsonifa & https://www.instagram.com/acceleratingyourwealth LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-financial-advisor Facebook :https://www.facebook.com/RebeccaRobertsonwealth www.evolutionfinancialplanning.co.uk Disclaimer: This content is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be construed as financial advice.
