“Personal finance is personal for a reason”, says guest Alyssa Davies, founder of Mixed Up Money, in the fourth episode of A Wealth of Women’s Stories. She joins award-winning host, Manjit Minhas, for an in-depth discussion on women, their wealth, and the misconceptions of money.

Neither a certified financial planner, a certified public accountant, or an expert in any type of finance, Alyssa Davies makes money easy and fun, in a way that allows her audience to relate. As a woman who believes in financial equality, she places importance on acknowledging and vocalizing the difficulties women face, and provides the tools needed to succeed and be heard. She has been featured in The Globe and Mail, FLARE, Global News, and last year published her first book, The 100 Day Financial Goal Journal.

Topics they cover include:

• 0:00 Alyssa’s story: “I saw the need for a judgment free and open space for women to actually feel comfortable with all things money.”


• 8:23 The great wealth transfer: “I think that for too long, women haven't been a part of the conversation.”


• 10:56 Women building wealth: “As Dolly Parton famously said, ‘don't get busy making a living and not live a life’.”


• 20:02 Preparing for life’s goals + emergencies: “What money actually provides us with is space and time to do the things we love.”


• 25:10 The importance of women financial advisors: “I think we're made to believe that personal finances is just a bunch of jargon.”
