Episode 142
Wednesday, 22 October, 2025

Financial advisor and author of The Financial Reset: Take Control of Your Money and Your Life, Gemma Mitchell shares her insights on navigating financial upheaval during major life transitions—like divorce, job loss, or unexpected change. Drawing from her own experiences and professional expertise, Gemma shares details of her 12-step financial reset plan, designed to help listeners rebuild with clarity and confidence. 💡 Key Takeaways: Financial resilience is essential during life transitions. Small, consistent actions can lead to meaningful recovery. You don’t need perfect goals to begin again. The “slingshot moment” is a powerful metaphor for post-crisis growth. A structured reset plan simplifies financial decision-making. Superannuation is a cornerstone of long-term financial health. Mindset influences every financial choice. The “treat yourself” culture can sabotage progress. Community support and resource-sharing are underrated tools. Financial habits can be unlearned and reshaped.
