BONUS: 23 goals for 2023

In this chatty bonus episode I go through 23 goals I have for 2023. Some are financial, some are lifestyle and some relate to business, and might give you some ideas on where to start with your own goal setting, or just be a juicy listen if you fancy a nosey into where my focus is going this year in a more candid way. I'll do a review episode at the end of the year to see which ones I achieved and which I didn't. These goals are just a bit of fun, some of them are more serious than others, but they give me a bit of a bucket to pick and choose from at a top level. These aren't my only goals, nor are they the most structured iterations of my focuses for the year.  I hope you enjoy! Let me know on Instagram if you're working towards any of these goals too.    Where to find me: Instagram: @the.brokegeneration Blog: The Broke Generation | Destination for Hot Mess MillennialsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We need to talk about the coaching industry, with Peta Serras

In this episode I am joined by my friend Peta Serras to take a bit of a deep dive into the coaching industry. From life coaching to business coaching to relationship coaching – there’s all kinds of coaching available these days, sometimes costing tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars (yes, really!). Peta and I discuss the ethics of the coaching industry, what is and isn’t worth your money, the extent to which qualifications come into play, the gendered conversation around coaching, and how to discern red flags in coaches that might tempt you to sign up to their programs.    Highlights: Using your wealth to sell your services is NOT okay While some coaching is unethical, broadly hating on coaching as a whole has serious feminist implications Green flags in coaches – what they CAN teach you, and why the dodgy ones are squashing the value of coaches that actually have something to offer The predatory nature of the coaching industry The darker side of coaching that resembles a pyramid scheme   Where to find Peta: @professionalbabe on Instagram. - Sign up to my weekly feel good finance newsletter www.thebrokegeneration.com/subscribe, where you’ll also nab access to my free 7 daily tasks to set up a budget.   Where to find me: Instagram: @the.brokegeneration Blog: The Broke Generation | Destination for Hot Mess Millennials Disclaimer: Information contained in this podcast is general in nature and should not be considered financial advice, nor used to make a financial or investment decision.
