    The Great Wealth Transfer: Why families need to talk about money now with Evan Lucas

    Australia is entering one of the largest intergenerational wealth transfers in its history. But while trillions of dollars are expected to change hands, there's one question families aren't asking enough: what happens to our relationships when money gets involved? In this episode of Money & a Good Life, Tribeca Financial CEO Ryan Watson joins economic commentator, author and behavioural finance specialist Evan Lucas to challenge the traditional idea of intergenerational wealth. Together, they explore why wealth should be about more than inheritance, property and investment portfolios. It's about family connection, financial education, honest conversations and building a legacy that lasts beyond one generation. From Australia's discomfort with discussing money to the financial habits we inherit from our parents, Evan and Ryan unpack the emotional and cultural barriers that prevent families from talking openly about their financial future. They also explore Tribeca's approach to connected family wealth, why taking a 100-year view changes financial decisions and how building wealth means very little if you're not living a good life along the way. In this episode, we discuss: Why intergenerational wealth is about more than passing down moneyAustralia's cultural discomfort with talking about family financesHow to protect family relationships during wealth transfersThe importance of having financial conversations before inheritanceWhy a 50 to 100-year family wealth strategy can change your perspectiveHow childhood experiences shape our financial behaviourWhy financial literacy should start at home and in schoolsThe difference between being wealthy and feeling financially secureHow financial advice can support families across multiple generationsWhy having enough money isn't the same as living a good lifeWhether you're building wealth, preparing for retirement, supporting ageing parents or thinking about the legacy you'll leave your children, this conversation offers a different way to think about money. Because the most valuable thing you pass on might not be your wealth. It might be the conversations you have about it.

    Why personal insurance is important with Rick Foster 

    Most of us insure our house, car, contents and even our phones. But what about our ability to earn an income? In this deeply personal episode of Money & a Good Life, Tribeca Financial’s Rachael Holder and Ryan Watson sit down with longtime Tribeca client, writer and men’s mental health advocate Rick Foster to explore what happens when your health unexpectedly affects your ability to work. Rick spent years building creative agency Tank alongside his wife and business partners. As the business grew, so did the pressure. Eventually, severe anxiety left him unable to continue working in the same capacity. What followed was not only a mental health recovery journey, but a real-world example of why financial protection can matter long before you think you’ll ever need it. Rick shares how income protection insurance, TPD insurance and key person insurance helped provide financial security for himself, his family and his business while he stepped away to focus on his health. He also reflects on the importance of having financial advisers advocating for him throughout a difficult and sometimes complex insurance claims process. The conversation also explores the strong connection between financial wellbeing and mental health, the pressures many business owners place on themselves, and why asking for help can be an act of strength rather than weakness. Rick’s recovery eventually brought him back to his love of writing and inspired him to create the children’s picture book Why Worry Wally, designed to help children understand that worries are normal and give them practical ways to talk about and manage them. In this episode: Why personal insurance can be important for business owners and familiesRick’s experience with anxiety, burnout and stepping away from workHow income protection supported his recoveryThe role of TPD and key person insuranceWhy having an adviser advocate during an insurance claim can make a differenceThe connection between financial stress and mental wellbeingWhy men can find it difficult to speak openly about mental healthRecognising the signs of anxiety before they become overwhelmingFinding balance, purpose and a healthier relationship with workHow Rick created Why Worry Wally to help children talk about anxiety and worriesWhat “a good life” means to Rick todayRick’s experience is a powerful reminder that good financial advice is not only about investments, numbers or retirement planning. Sometimes, it is about putting protections in place that allow you to focus on your health, your family and your future when life does not go to plan. If you own a business, have a family relying on your income, or simply haven’t reviewed your personal insurance for some time, this episode offers an important perspective on the value of planning ahead.

    Why art is for everyone with Andy Dinan

    Art galleries can feel intimidating. White rooms full of expensive things. Quiet. Full of breakable things. A space that seems to signal: "You probably don't belong here." But what if that feeling is completely wrong? In this episode of Money & a Good Life, Steph and Ryan sit down with Andy Dinan—founder of MARS Gallery and ADA Art Consulting, and someone who's championed emerging and mid-career Australian artists for more than 20 years through over 700 exhibitions. Andy believes art is for everyone. That collecting doesn't require a fortune. And that buying something you love might actually be one of the most rewarding ways you can spend money. She also started one of Melbourne's best-known galleries despite never having worked in a gallery before—which is quite the origin story. What we talk about: How Andy went from pushing a pram into a gallery to opening her own.Why so many people feel intimidated by galleries and the art world.Why collecting art isn't just for wealthy people.The value of buying art you genuinely love.Why Andy encourages people to look for a long time before buying anything.Whether art should be viewed as an investment.The role art can play in shaping communities and public spaces.Why Andy believes philanthropy should be accessible to everyone, regardless of what they can afford to give.Whether you've been collecting for years or have never set foot in a gallery, this conversation is a reminder that art isn't about expertise or status. Sometimes it's simply about finding something you love and bringing it into your life.  Here's to your Good Life. And thanks for listening.

    Creating an intentional life with Angela Ceberano

    Most of us grow up believing that if we work hard enough, plan carefully enough and want something badly enough, we'll eventually get there. But life doesn't always follow the plan.

    What families pass on, beyond money with Damon Kitney

    Every family has stories. Some get passed down through generations. Others are forgotten over time. But whether we realise it or not, those stories can shape the way we think about money, success, work, family and what's possible for our future. In this episode of Money & a Good Life, we sit down with Damon Kitney, journalist, author and storyteller, who has spent decades documenting some of Australia's most successful families. Through those conversations, he's discovered that while passing on wealth is important, passing on values, purpose and family stories can be even more powerful. We talk about: Why family stories matter more than many people realise.The role stories play in shaping beliefs about money, work and success.What Damon has learned from interviewing some of Australia's most successful families.Why passing on values can be harder than passing on wealth.How family history can contribute to a sense of identity and belonging.The challenges families face when navigating wealth, succession and legacy.Why preserving stories may be one of the most important gifts we leave future generations.Whether your family story spans generations or starts with you, this conversation is a reminder that the things we pass on aren't always financial. Sometimes the stories themselves become part of our legacy. Here's to your Good Life. And thanks for listening.

    Retire with purpose with Kim & Prue Watty

    Most people spend decades planning financially for retirement. But what about everything else? The routines that shape your days. The sense of purpose that comes from your work. The connections, structure and identity you've built over a lifetime. In this episode of Money & a Good Life, we sit down with Prue and Dr Kim Watty, co-founders of The Main Act, to explore what happens when people retire without thinking about what comes next. Drawing on both personal experience and years of research, they share why creating a fulfilling retirement requires more than financial preparation, and how purpose, connection and community can play just as important a role. We talk about: Why retirement can be more challenging than many people expect.The loss of structure, identity and purpose that often comes with leaving work.Why financial preparedness is only one part of a successful retirement.The importance of thinking about what you want your next chapter to look like.The unique transitions many women experience throughout life and retirement.Why community, creativity, contribution and connection matter so much.How to move from simply retiring from something to retiring towards something.Whether retirement is right around the corner or still years away, this conversation is a reminder that a good retirement isn't just about having enough money. It's also about creating a life you're excited to wake up to. Here's to your Good Life. And thanks for listening.

    The real value of financial advice with Thabojan Rasiah
