Episode 85 - Rewriting Your Money Story with Jessica Brady

Have you ever felt like you’re not as confident with money as you’d like to be… but no one ever actually taught you how?

Or maybe you’ve found yourself focusing on the now - the bills, the holidays, the day-to-day - while quietly hoping the future will somehow take care of itself. In this episode of It’s a Mindset, I’m joined by Jessica Brady - money educator, former financial adviser and co-founder of Fox & Hare Financial Advice, who is on a mission to make money education more accessible, inclusive and aligned with the life you actually want to live.

With over 20 years of experience in financial services, Jessica has worked with some of Australia’s biggest institutions including Macquarie Bank, Commonwealth Bank and Zurich Australia. She is also the co-founder of Ladies Talk Money, a platform designed to help women and non-binary people navigate a financial system that hasn’t always been built for them.

Jessica’s approach is refreshingly honest and down-to-earth - cutting through the jargon and shame that so often surrounds money, and replacing it with practical tools, behavioural insights and real-life strategies.

We also touch on her new book, Get Growing, which brings this philosophy to life - helping people clear out what’s holding them back and start building a future that feels financially secure, aligned and truly their own.

I loved how comfortable Jessica is discussing money and finances - especially when it comes to unpacking the limiting beliefs so many of us carry. It’s a conversation that feels empowering, not overwhelming.

If you’ve ever felt like money is something you haven’t quite figured out yet, this episode is for you.

Key Episode Takeaways:

• Why making financial education more accessible is key to creating real change
• How women, in particular, carry limiting beliefs around money - and how to start shifting them
• The importance of creating harmony between your present lifestyle and future financial goals
