Season Finale|Episode 8: Origin Story
We’ve come to the end of Season 1 of Talk Money. I’m really proud of what we’ve created. We still have a long way to go, but we’re on our way! This project started two years ago. I was very interested in creating education around money, business and finance, and felt that podcasting was the best medium. In order to stand out among the hundreds of thousands of podcasts out there, we had to take a different approach - we focus on storytelling to share lessons on money, business and finance.
In this episode of Talk Money, we learn more about my origin story. I hope understanding how I got here and why we created this show will entice you to keep listening. The goals behind this podcast were to create more transparency and simplify topics around money in an entertaining way. I didn’t learn about investing by going to business school or working on Wall Street. I was very fortunate to have people around me who taught me. I learned by making mistakes and asking questions. Throughout this episode, I’ll share lessons I experienced and why creating this podcast was so important.
I really appreciate all of you who’ve taken the time to listen. I can’t wait to share Season 2! To catch up on Season 1, see the episode list below:
