26 Best of 2025 Replay: Why Super Needs to Be Your Super Hero

As we ease into the Christmas break — that magical time where no one knows what day it is and leftovers count as a meal — we’re revisiting one of the most popular episodes of the year. Coming in as our second most-listened-to episode is Why Super Needs to Be Your Super Hero. And we are not surprised this was one of the most listened to episodes. Superannuation is one of the most powerful financial tools available to women — yet it’s also one of the most misunderstood. In this replay, Naomi pulls together 20 minutes of the very best moments from the original episode, breaking super down in a way that’s practical, relatable, and actually makes sense. Using the idea of super as your financial cape, this episode explores why we want super to be the hero of your future — not the villain quietly eroded by fees, poor performance, or neglect. Naomi also challenges listeners to think differently about their super by giving it a superhero identity of its own (hers? Lara Croft — bold, strong, adventurous, and absolutely not here to play small). In this replay, we cover: Why super really matters — especially for women Why you need to actively care about it (even if retirement feels far away) What makes super such a tax-efficient structure How much choice you actually have when it comes to your fund The different types of contributions you can make How and when you can access your super And the pop culture tie-in to Bonnie Tyler’s Holding Out for a Hero — because your super really can be exactly that We’re taking a short festive breather, but Naomi is still around if you need support over the break. And from both Naomi and Helene — thank you for being part of this community. 🎄 Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a safe, happy festive season. 🎙️ We’ll be back with a brand-new live episode on 5 January. Because your money matters — and so do you.
