About this episode

Jess shares her experience of meeting with a financial adviser for the first time and discusses goal setting.

Ever wondered what it's like to meet with a financial adviser? Or how they actually help with your finances? Jess had. So in this episode, she has her very first meeting with a financial adviser; Glen Hare from Fox & Hare. We are keeping this series as real as possible - so Jess and Glen's chat is just how a first meeting with an advisor would happen in real life. This recording was the first time the two had met and Glen takes Jess through the same process as any new client. But before she met with Glen, Jess caught up with community member Andrew. He shared how working with a financial advisor changed his money life for the better and gave Jess some tips on how to approach the first meeting.
