Math Scaries? How a Fear of Numbers Creeps Into Our Money Mindset w/ Vanessa Vakharia
Friday, 31 October, 2025
"I find so many people, women specifically, are not confident making decisions around finance or around politics, or being opinionated because they don't feel comfortable with numbers, and that needs to stop." - Vanessa Vakharia In the spirit of Halloween, we're serving up a special treat—and taking you back to where it all began: our very first full interview on the show. It felt only right to start this journey where so many of our money beliefs and behaviours begin: with a fear of math.We sat down with Vanessa Vakharia, a.k.a @themathguru — author, musician, speaker, and founder of a boutique tutoring studio where they hold exam parties and drink Pi tea lattes. Vanessa helps us unpack why so many of us say "I'm just not a math person," and how that quietly shapes how we think about money, confidence, and even our voices in the world. In this replay, we also talk about why creating a shame-free, judgment-free space matters—both in math class and in money conversations. If you've ever felt haunted by numbers, you're not alone. And this conversation might exorcise those fears 👻To follow along with Vanessa, tap or click HERE.To learn more about The Math Guru, tap or click HERE.
