On episode 39, we welcome financial advisor Martha Lawton to discuss the emotional side of our financial choices, the link between mental health and our finances, whether sheer free-will suffices for self-discipline, and the importance of empathizing with our circumstances to foster financial maturity.

Squanderlust is the podcast about the emotional side of money, why our actions aren’t always as good as our intentions and what we can do about it.

Former-financial adviser Martha and former-chartered accountant Alex talk about what it means to be good (or bad) with money and the emotional factors at play in financial decision-making. Squanderlust is recorded at Wardour Studios.
