The best personal finance podcasts
1. In Her Financial Shoes
With a rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars on Apple podcasts, it’s fair to say financial planner Catherine Morgan is doing something right.
Whether she’s sharing her own tips or interviewing an expert to extract all of theirs, you’ll find this podcast champions female entrepreneurship, and aims to help women gain financial confidence.
Morgan doesn’t shy away from asking the uncomfortable questions that have made talking about money so taboo, and she’s happy to challenge your money mindset and limiting beliefs to help you identify what’s been holding you back from reaching your financial goals, too.
There are also countless episodes of practical advice from how to identify your money "leaks," and debt payment strategies, to how to start investing.
2. Black Girl Finance
Inequality in the workplace has led to BAME communities being paid between five to 10% less than their white counterparts. To be able to address the unique difficulties Black women face due to the gender and ethnicity pay gaps is one of the key reasons why Black Girl Finance founder, Selina Flavius, retrained as a finance coach and advisor after 15 years working in business development.
Her podcast, alongside her coaching services, are designed to provide a safe space for a community of unapologetic, ambitious, money-minded Black women to get real about their finances, and to help them make their hard-earned money go even further. The podcast features plenty of successful Black women who share their experiences and priceless financial advice, alongside actionable, practical strategies to budget, pay off debt, save and invest.
She's all for addressing money matters and speaking candidly about finances, even if we've been taught that the practice is impolite.
"It's super important to talk about how you are doing financially because if you are struggling, you should not suffer alone or in silence. There is help out there," she previously told My Imperfect Life. "Make sure that every single month you do a check-in on your finances and ensure that you can still handle any financial commitments that you may have."
3. Women on Top
Business strategist and host Frankie Cotton interviews inspirational female startup founders, business leaders, creators, politicians and activists, making this the ultimate podcast for budding entrepreneurs.
From creating multi-million dollar companies to managing mental health and imposter syndrome, Women On Top explores it all through a feminist lens to ultimately provide support and a community for working women. By unpacking her diverse guests successes, failures, ambitions and drive, Cotton makes finance and business relatable and accessible.
4. Squanderlust
Emotions have a lot to do with why, how and what we spend our money on, and with this podcast Martha Lawton (a former financial adviser) and Alex Lemon (an ex-chartered accountant) focus on the psychological elements of money management.
They’ve covered the complex relationship between money and mental health, how to deal with financial shame, why debt avoidance is common practice and so much more.
While there are some handy tips and resources shared, this podcast is all about unpacking the complex emotions and habits that are stopping you from having a healthy relationship with your money.
5. Money 101
While launched to help young adults like host Bea Duncan learn about the basics of personal finance, we are sure Gen Z’s and finance novices alike will find this podcast helpful.
From saving, renting and pensions, to self-employment and effective budgeting, you’ll find a whole host of everyday money issues are addressed. Format wise, some episodes feature real people sharing their experiences, anchored by stellar financial advice from money expert Kalpana Firzpatrick. Other episodes feature interviews with CEOs, or reviews for the best money apps.
6. So Money with Farnoosh Torabi
Hosted by Farnoosh Torabi, editor at large of CNET Money, an award-winning financial strategist, TV host and bestselling author, So Money is one of the most popular financial podcasts out there.
