I may have only started my Substack a few weeks ago, but I was lucky enough to be invited to a Toronto Substacker event last night (thanks Mark Swierszcz) and got to meet the most interesting people! It really brought me back to my old blogging days (15 years ago now😳). And look who I ran into. The OG of Canadian personal finance PF World!

September was BUSY in the best way…

🎸I saw Lily Allen and Robyn perform (along with every other millennial).
🍜Caught up with Beau Humphreys who I hadn’t seen in almost 5 years. It was so fun reminiscing about the old personal finance days (even though it made me feel like a 🦕).
✈️ Flew to Ottawa for work and did a French-speaking tour of the House of Commons (and was relieved to find I can still understand French).
📣 Flew to Vancouver to give two workshops at the PacificWest Conference (while fitting in a quick visit with family).
📈 Kicked off Cohort 2 of my LIVE Wealth Building Blueprint for Canadians course (registration is closed but I might do it again in the winter).
✍️ And ended the month by launching my Substack where I’ll be sharing personal essays, a financial advice column, and money stories. 🔗LINK IN BIO to subscribe.

What were your highlights from September?

If you’re in downtown Vancouver, I dropped off a few signed copies at the Little Free Library near Barclay St. and Burrard St.

I put them in there Tuesday morning so it’s likely most of them are still there. But if you’re in the area, check it out, grab a copy, and let me know!

For those wondering, I was in Vancouver for just a few days for a speaking engagement, brought way too many books with me to sell, went shopping (because Vancouver has so many amazing stores), then ran out of luggage space on the way home. So enjoy!

I did something!

Ever since my book EVERYTHING BUT MONEY came out last year, I’ve really missed writing.

Although I’m not quite ready to jump into writing book 2 (though I’m definitely brainstorming), I thought “Why not start a Substack to get back into it?”

Blogging is where this all started for me, so it kind of feels like coming home. I can’t wait to finally have a platform where I can freely share some of my thoughts and opinions, a financial advice column, and money stories from people like you.

I never expected one book to change the direction of my life (for the better), but it did.

I don’t remember how or where exactly, but in the spring of 2022 I stumbled upon an article about Marisa G Franco | Friendship Expert & Speaker’s soon-to-be released book “Platonic: How the Science of Attachment Can Help You Make—and Keep—Friends” and immediately pre-ordered a copy.

As I shared in my own book “Everything but Money,” I have a complicated past when it comes to friendships and it’s been a big source of insecurity for me since high school. I was always attracted to the wrong type of friend, and it wasn’t until I read Marisa’s book that I discovered why and learned how to break the cycle.

Her book was also the first time I learned about attachment theory, which led me down a long path of self-discovery and therapy, and would inevitably influence my own book about attachment theory’s connection to money.

Well, some very exciting news! Her new book “Worth: The New Science of Self-Esteem and Secure Attachment” just came out on Sept. 15 and it’s just as eye-opening as her first book.

I’ve been on a big reading journey this year (38 books read!) and Marisa was nice enough to send me an early copy to review. And unsurprisingly I loved this book just as much as her first one.

It’s available now wherever you buy books or you can check it out at your local library.📚

Sometimes I also work from my couch?

It’s amazing what you can do with a laptop, a phone and some simple camera and audio equipment.

I’ve been running my financial education business for 9.5 years and I’ve always had a simple set up. I often hire contractors to help with my podcast and YouTube channel, and I have an agent, bookkeeper and accountant to help my business stay on track.

Other than that, it’s just me. But I do a lot as a one-person act:

-YouTube channel (weekly videos, 62k subscribers)
-Podcast (10 years, 480 episodes)
-Speaking (conferences, workshops, hosting)
-Media (regular TV and radio segments)
-Book (Everything but Money📕)
-Course (5 years running with over 500 students)
-Financial planning practice (just started taking on new clients but already booked up til August)

I do a lot but it’s not as chaotic or glamorous as those “day in the life” videos other creators make. It’s just me at my laptop getting stuff done. It may not be glamorous or as jam-packed as those “day in the life” videos other creators make, but it’s real.

You don’t say 😒

Anyone else remember watching this 2014 reality show? Well, apparently after the show, this guy ended up (allegedly) running an $80 million Ponzi scheme promising a 120% dividend to investors and is now being sued.

A word of caution from your financial friend Jessica. If an investment seems too good to be true, it probably is. Do your research, ask questions, and listen to your gut if something seems like a scam because it very well may be one.
