“I just want better returns”
Every woman says it on her first call. Almost none of them mean it.
This week at the Aperitivo, all four of us sit down together to talk about the reason behind the reason. The reason you might not have admitted to yourself yet.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
What Melanie hears in the first 20 minutes of a call that most women never say out loud
Why having a financial advisor can still leave you without a seat at your own tabl
The woman who bought her way into a room of 1,300 men, and what they refused to give her when she walked in
Your reason is yours. Listen now!

You’d never run a company with no budget and no plan. So why are you running your own life that way?
Are you the unpaid CFO of your own life, doing the job badly without even knowing it?
Most women who wing it with money aren’t careless. Nobody ever sat them down and taught them. Melanie left home at 18 with no one to explain the basics. Kristin grew up surrounded by money until 2008 changed everything for her family. Dagmar was a university graduate on a good salary, sure her retirement was “taken care of.” It wasn’t.
In this episode you’ll hear:
The signs you’re running your finances on autopilot
How much money you need before winging it becomes a choice instead of a risk
The pension trap catching women who have built careers across more than one European country
If you finish this episode realising you’ve been winging it, good. That’s the best place to start.
