Episode 161: On Your Own Two Feet with Helen Baker

Catherine is here today with Helen Baker. Helen is an Australian licensed financial adviser and founder of On Your Own Two Feet, an Australia-wide service dedicated to empowering women to gain and retain their financial freedom. Before pursuing financial planning, Helen enjoyed eye-opening years in the entertainment industry putting her financial and project management nous to work as part of working with well-known performers including Robbie Williams and Sia. She also managed a range of projects including a global acquisition for Reckitt and Colman, continuing in their European division; helped businesses restructure and guided inventors to commercialise their products. Coming from a background that was loaded with love but not money, Helen taught herself to be dollar-wise. A life-long learner, she sought to become thoroughly educated and knowledgeable about money matters, and then wanted to share that with other women: a career-changing move for Helen and life-changing for some of her clients as well as the charities her work supports. Helen’s first book, On Your Own Two Feet: Steady Steps to Women’s Financial Independence was published in 2014.All profits from her books go to charities supporting disadvantaged women. Helen Baker is an engaging and informative conference speaker who presents practical financial planning advice for women using stories, humour and situations based on real-life experiences.
