'It all came crashing down' - Patrick Gower | More Than Money

Are Kiwis lacking connection?

Broadcasting legend Paddy Gower reckons it’s time we take some simple steps to feel more connected and fulfilled.

In the very first episode of More than Money, the TV and radio veteran talks frankly about our need for closeness, how getting sober led to taking control of his finances, and how the story of his recovery has formed an unexpected second act in his career.

Paddy describes how 2024’s media layoffs forced him to think long and hard about money for the first time—and to reinvent himself professionally at the age of 47.

More Than Money is a limited podcast series exploring the wealth choices that change us. In these conversations, Kiwi legends give us a revealing look at one important money decision that helped determine where they are today: the strokes of genius, the near-misses, and the tough calls.

Episodes drop every Monday and Thursday in January.
