  • Soft launch your retirement bonus episode

    A bonus episode indeed. I'll have to listen again to collect all the great tips. What really stuck with me was Bambi Price's advice to ensure you're always working with people who are unlike you (because diversity is so important to growth). Wonderful stuff. Thanks.

  • Fantastic information and comforting!

    It took me about a dozen clicks to figure out how to rate this podcast but I persevered because of how important I think this podcast is. I am financially literate, know how to budget and manage my money but I am clueless about my super and whether I will have enough for retirement. I worry about this. Even something that sounds simple like topping up my super, I don’t know how to actually do this. I have commenced building my knowledge on this phase and Becs book and this podcast are a valuable... more

  • The info I needed to hear

    Really enjoying the variety of topics that this podcast presents relative to my life as I consider what “retirement” looks like. It speaks to the fact that the one size fits all doesn’t apply.

  • Entering But Need Info

    I’ve been listening to this podcast for a while and happy to look past its sexist views on things as 30 years ago it would have been the other way around. But the current episode inspired me to wright a review and unsubscribe.

    The episodes are entertaining but if you are looking for some factual information there are no links to sites or what governing body the referred help and assistance can be accessed from. Pointless!!! I just realised I’ve been wasting my time.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Protecting your retirement savings; An important warning
Q: What is the message to trustees right now?
Wake up and step up. Two years of oversight have not produced enough improvement across the growing sector. Trustees must demonstrate three clear responsibilities—money safety, value for money, and appropriate investment and retirement services—while being transparent about their model and the protections in place. If necessary, investigations and naming names may follow to protect Australians and maintain confidence in retirement planning.
Protecting your retirement savings; An important warning
Q: What should listeners do this week to protect themselves?
Ask your financial advisor how the platform keeps money safe and ensures value for money, request evidence of protections, fee caps, checks on advisory statements, and the advisor's licensing status. Seek clarity on why a platform is right for you, understand the services offered, and consider switching if the platform or advisor cannot demonstrate appropriate safeguards and alignment with your retirement needs.
Protecting your retirement savings; An important warning
Q: Can you help us understand what's going wrong and why it matters?
The core issue is that trustees, not just platforms or advisors, have a responsibility to keep money safe, ensure value for money, and oversee investment and retirement services. Failures across six platform trustees show repeat bad conduct and weak controls, which risk harming Australians' retirement savings. The fix is stronger, simple, and enforceable controls, with trustees actively monitoring advisors, licensing, and fee structures to prevent egregious outcomes.
BOOK CLUB! Hips, Humour, and Hindsight with The Dressmaker Author, Rosalie Ham
Q: Can you share background on your life that informs Look After Your Feet and how aging has shaped your view of your past?
My childhood and rural upbringing gave me a resilient, darkly humorous view of life; traveling and living in different places (London, Melbourne, etc.) deepened my understanding of aging, memory, and identity, which informs the book's voice and reflections.
BOOK CLUB! Hips, Humour, and Hindsight with The Dressmaker Author, Rosalie Ham
Q: After writing fiction for so long, what made you pivot to Look After Your Feet and non-fiction?
It started with noticing conversations shifting from nightlife and socializing to discussing bunions, hips, and knees; I wanted to reflect that shift with humor and humanity, and to show aging as a communal, practical, and enjoyable journey.
