#18: Lindsay Cressey | Oxford Graduate & Dual-Qualified Lawyer | Teaching Women to Enjoy Money Without the Bro Jargon

Ever feel like money is that dusty corner of your life nobody taught you how to clean? You're not alone. In this enlightening conversation with Lindsay Cressy, Oxford graduate, dual-qualified lawyer and teacher, and financial empowerment coach, we shine a light on why women's relationship with money deserves a complete makeover.Lindsay reveals the startling truth: despite receiving elite education, she was never taught about money. "I had the highest education you could go for, and yet at no point was I taught about money," she shares. This educational blind spot leaves most of us operating from childhood beliefs about finances that no longer serve us as adults.The revelation that stopped me in my tracks? Women actually make better long-term investors than men. We're naturally inclined to invest in alignment with our values and stay the course rather than reactively trading. Yet the "bro language" of finance, with its emphasis on risk and complicated jargon, creates unnecessary barriers that keep women from stepping into their financial power.What if investing could be as enjoyable as shopping? Lindsay suggests starting by "dating your money", creating pleasant experiences around financial planning rather than dreading it. She offers brilliant practical strategies like investing in companies you already patronize: "Instead of just going to your favorite store, why not buy some of their shares? Then when you're spending money there, you're investing in your own company."Whether you're a creative entrepreneur struggling to charge what you're worth or someone who's never considered investing, Lindsay's approach makes financial empowerment accessible and even fun. By sending your money "out to work for you while you sleep" through simple automated investments, you can build wealth without stress.Ready to break the money taboo and start creating financial freedom on your own terms?
