The F* Word: Does it keep us awake at night?

October 13, 2022 • Legal News Wales • Season 1 • Episode 2

We’ve had the strangest two years thanks to the pandemic, amplifying our concerns about our lifestyles, income and future plans. The post-pandemic economic climate isn't offering much respite for many - whether you're house-hunting, raising a family or on the cusp of retirement.

One of the most common causes of stress - is money - or at least the things you need it for. Sleepless nights and poor mental health can stem from uncertainty surrounding earning it, keeping it, growing it and even spending it.

In this episode, Legal News Wales Editor Emma Waddingham is joined by Greg Tait, Financial Advisor at RBC Brewin Dolphin, to tackling the F* Word head on. They'll highlight the dangers of continuing to sidestep the Finance and planning taboo and offer some simple, encouraging and positive steps for change (and a good night's sleep).
