    Episode 30 - Crafting a Family Legacy: The Art of Writing Non-Boring Family Histories / Hazel Edwards

    Have you ever wished to capture the essence of your family's history in a way that truly engages future generations? Writing a family history that isn’t just a collection of dates and facts, but a living narrative full of the vibrant personalities and rich experiences that shaped your ancestors, is no small feat. In Episode 30 of The True Wealth Project podcast, Sascha Janzen has an enlightening conversation with Hazel Edwards, a renowned Australian author best known for her beloved children's book ”There's a Hippopotamus on Our Roof Eating Cake”.  But Hazel's expertise goes far beyond children's literature. With over 200 books to her name, she has mastered the art of storytelling across genres, and now, she’s dedicated to helping others bring their family histories to life in engaging and meaningful ways. During the episode, Hazel delves into the importance of writing family histories that resonate with readers, turning the potentially dry recitation of names and dates into compelling narratives filled with the quirks, challenges, and triumphs of real people.  She shares her unique approach to avoiding the common pitfalls of family history writing, such as how to begin the daunting task of documenting your family's past and the significance of focusing on "quiet heroes" who may not have made headlines but played crucial roles in their communities. Hazel also discusses her personal experiences, from creating personalized stories for her grandchildren to guiding aspiring authors through the process of writing memoirs and family histories that are anything but boring. If you’ve ever wanted to preserve your family’s legacy in a way that truly reflects the vibrancy of their lives, this episode is a must-listen. Join Sascha and Hazel for an episode that will inspire you to take the first step in documenting your family's unique story, turning it into a legacy that future generations will treasure.

    Episode 25 - The Path to True Wealth and Financial Freedom / Jason Graystone

    In today's fast-paced world, we often find ourselves chasing success and wealth, driven by societal expectations and external symbols of prosperity. The pressure to keep up with the Joneses can lead us astray from our true passions and values, leaving us feeling unfulfilled and disconnected from our genuine selves. Deep down, we know that true wealth is not just about the numbers in our bank accounts, but about the quality of experiences, the joy of pursuing our passions, and the impact we make on others' lives.

During the podcast, Jason shares five essential steps to financial freedom and fulfilment, guiding us through a systematic approach.

    Episode 24 - Doing good AND doing well - is it possible? / Bessi Graham

    Are you an entrepreneur who wants to positively impact the world? Do you feel that despite your success in business you haven’t found fulfilment and have doubts if you can actually leverage your wealth to make a massive difference?  Do you believe that “doing good” and “making money” can’t exist together and that the only way you can contribute is by using the money you make in your business to fund a charity or set up a foundation?  What if we told you that you can do good and make money at the same time?  What if we told you to do good INSIDE your business while continuing to thrive?   Bessi Graham, the co-owner of Benefit Capital in Melbourne, Australia, believes that business can be an incredibly powerful agent for change. She works with business owners to help them put their time, talent, and treasure to work in ways that align with their values and allow them to create a legacy they can be proud of. She joined Sascha Janzen on episode 24 of The True Wealth Project to talk about that and share some of her secrets on how we can bring “doing good” and “making money” back together.  They talk about:  How can a business be a force for good in a sustainable way?  Bessi believes that, first of all, “what makes us be able to maintain the doing good inside the business is that we have to really think about what we as either an individual owner or a family care about.” How you can start doing good INSIDE your business: There are three ways you can start. Bessi and Sascha talk through all three ways.  The Mother Teresa trap: There are four common traps we can fall into when we want to help and contribute. Good intentions aren’t always enough. And doing good is not as easy as it may seem.   Awareness is the first step to take if you want to make a true impact and avoid unintended consequences.   Bessi believes that there are four common traps we can fall into when we want to help. She takes us through all four traps in the conversation. How can these four traps be avoided? Bessie also believes that awareness is the key and that it is important for business owners to recognise that there is value in slowing down and actually just doing the reflective process of really getting to some clarity upfront. If you do that, then a lot of those unintended consequences can be avoided because you can anticipate them.  For these and many more invaluable tips on how we can bring “doing good” and “making money” back together and transform your business into an incredibly powerful agent for change, tune into episode 24 of The True Wealth Project Podcast!  Sign up for The True Wealth Project Podcast newsletter to stay updated and never miss an episode:  https://bit.ly/twpnewslettersib  or buy us a coffee to support us:  https://bit.ly/3U7t3Rn  Where to find Bessi  https://bessigraham.com  https://www.linkedin.com/in/bessi-graham-48a31323/  https://www.facebook.com/bessi.graham  https://www.instagram.com/bessigraham/  Bessi’s Podcast:  https://link.chtbl.com/BothAndwithBessiGraham

    Episode 23 - How to become a time wealthy entrepreneurial parent / Jamie Selby

    Are you a busy entrepreneur who struggles to maintain a healthy work/life balance? Maybe you feel like your family relationships are not what you want them to be because you don’t spend enough quality time with your loved ones. But does it have to be like that?
