Financial Wellbeing 101
Money wasn’t a topic we studied at school, and yet as adults, the decisions around how we make it, what we spend it on and how we manage our money can literally change our lives. At its heart, financial wellbeing is about acknowledging our emotions around money, feeling in control of our finances, being able to withstand financial unpredictability and unexpected expenses, and having the ability to make choices which lead us towards achievement of our financial and life goals. This 60 minute workshop will cover:
- The psychology of money, how our beliefs around money are formed and how these influence our habits, behaviours and feelings about money as adults
- Creating a basic financial plan and effective budget
- Paying yourself first & tracking your spending
- Disaster-proofing your finances and creating an emergency fund so you can withstand any shocks and setbacks
- Fostering good money habits to embed financial resilience.

Nearly half of employees have financial concerns, causing them to lose an average of six productive work days annually. (Northwestern Mutual Report, 2017). Learn the nuts and bolts of personal finance practices in this 60 minute financial wellbeing workshop. Learn about:
- Effective budgeting
- Save money each month

What our clients say about our financial wellbeing workshops
Webinar Attendee, LADBible
All of it was so helpful, especially the 50-30-20% rule regarding how much you spend on needs-wants-savings. I made loads of notes!
Group HR Director, Talbot Underwriting
Financial Fitness was really well received. It was nice that people felt comfortable enough to talk about their own experiences with money and their mindsets – I think the exercise really helped with that. We especially liked the fact that it wasn’t intrusive or presented as a lecture. The coach was professional but also relatable which, I think, was the right balance. People are still talking about it which is great!
