Side-Hustles & Pay-Rises: How To Do It Well

Side-Hustles & Pay-Rises: How To Do It Well

Author: Mamamia Podcasts March 28, 2021 Duration: 33:47

Welcome to What The Finance, Mamamia's new podcast all about getting good with money.

Whether you work full-time, part-time, are a freelancer or own your own business, the working world can be a minefield to navigate. There's negotiating your salary, asking for a raise, setting your freelance rates, and all the ups and downs that come with owning your own business.

This week, Mel Browne and Pallavi Sharda tackle the subject of the working world, a topic that can often make us want to bury our heads in the sand. We also hear from Steph Claire Smith and Laura Henshaw, co-founders of wellness program Keep It Cleaner on how they turned their side hustle into a hugely successful brand.

Money talk can feel awkward, but putting it off rarely helps. That’s the idea behind What The Finance, a straightforward series from Mamamia Podcasts that tackles the questions we often think are too simple or too embarrassing to ask out loud. Over eight episodes, you’ll follow along as financial expert and author Melissa Browne works with actress and activist Pallavi Sharda to demystify personal finance from the ground up. It’s less about stock market jargon and more about the practical stuff that makes a real difference in your week-to-week life. You’ll hear honest conversations about setting realistic savings goals, understanding how superannuation really works, and untangling the confusing concept of so-called ‘good debt’. This podcast creates a relatable space where financial literacy is built one clear, manageable topic at a time. It’s designed for anyone who’s ever felt a bit lost looking at their bank statement or wondered if they’re making the right moves with their pay. By blending expert guidance with a genuine beginner’s perspective, the series makes the often-intimidating world of business and investing feel accessible and, most importantly, actionable. Tune in to get a clearer handle on your money, without the confusing jargon or judgment.
