    2026/09/28

    Send us Fan Mail

    Markets keep breaking records. You opened your app, and your number barely moved.

    You did everything right. You spread your money across funds. Your bank told you that you were well diversified. You believed them.

    This week, we open up a portfolio that looks perfect on paper and ask the one question your bank statement will never answer for you. You'll also find out what your bank advisor has in common with Francesca's first boyfriend.

    If you own more than a handful of funds and you're not sure what's inside them, press play before you touch anything.

  • 244. Ask for It or Stay Broke: DO THIS INSTEAD
    2026/09/24

    Send us Fan Mail

    You've been treating "no" like a verdict on you. It isn't. It's just the first move in a conversation you keep walking away from too early.

    This week on The Ask, all four of us are unpacking what actually happens when you hear no, and why it costs you so much more than the moment itself.

    • What rejection does in your body long after the word is said
    • How women who ask for a living hear a no completely differently than you do,
    • The no that once nearly rerouted one of our entire careers
    • The reframe that turns "no" from a closed door into information you can actually use

    Every no you've never risked hearing has already cost you something. Book a call with our team and let's find out what it's cost you, and what the next ask could hand you instead.

  • 243. Being "Up" Doesn't Mean You're Winning: Your 3% 'Win' Could Be Costing You Money
    2026/09/21

    Send us Fan Mail

    You open the app. You see green. Your shoulders drop, relieved. You move on with your day. But a positive number, on its own, tells you nothing.

    In this episode:

    • Why the return you're proud of could already be underperforming with zero way of knowing it
    • The one thing that decides whether "up" means you actually won, or just got lucky
    • Why "just wait it out" isn't always the right instinct when you're down
    • The tool every Centsational student learns to build for herself because your statement was never built to answer this

    If you've ever felt fine about a return and wondered whether you should feel more than fine, this one's for you.

  • 241. What You're Calling Depression Might Just Be Your Bank Account
    2026/09/17

    Send us Fan Mail

    "I just need to find a way to make more money." That's the sentence she kept repeating to the people trying to help her. They wanted to give her a pill.

    Over martinis, all four of us go there: the blurry, uncomfortable line between financial stress and something you'd actually get medicated for. One of us tells the story of the year she lived on £30 a week and watched herself disappear and what actually turned it around (spoiler: it wasn't therapy). We also get into the ten years it can take to realize the voice telling you you're "less than" is lying, what really shifts the moment a woman becomes the bigger earner, and why handing kids money they've actually earned changes everything about how they spend it.

    In this episode:

    • Why so many "depressive episodes" are really unpaid invoices in disguise
    • The uncomfortable thing that happens in a relationship the moment she starts making more
    • What kids do with money once they've had to work for it (it's not what you'd guess)
    • Why you don't need anyone's permission to take your next financial step

    You don't need your partner on board for this one. You need an hour, and the right information.

    Ready to stop waiting for permission? Book a free call with our team or watch our free Investing Workshop — link below.

  • 241. THIS Is Why Your Watch Collection Isn't a Portfolio.
    2026/09/14

    Send us Fan Mail

    One brand controls almost half of an entire multi-billion dollar market. Numbers like that make anything feel bulletproof. They're not.

    In this episode, you'll discover:

    • The real market share numbers behind the three biggest watch brands, and how much more concentrated that market actually is than you'd guess
    • Why "rare and desirable" and "good investment" are not the same test, even when it feels like they should be
    • The one question that separates a collector from an investor, and why almost nobody asks it before they buy

    If you've ever called a luxury purchase "an investment" to make yourself feel better about buying it, this episode either gives you permission to keep believing that, or takes it away for good.

  • 240. Investing Delay: The "I'll Start When Things Calm Down" Excuse Costing You Over €1,000,000 (Do THIS Instead)
    2026/09/10

    Send us Fan Mail

    "I'll start when things calm down." You've said it. Maybe you're saying it right now. This week on The Centsational Aperitivo, the team goes after that sentence and doesn't let it off easy.

    In this episode:

    1. We run the actual numbers on what "waiting a few years" really costs you by retirement
    2. The gap between starting now and starting later will make you rethink every "not yet”
    3. What actually counts as "not ready" versus what's just a comfortable excuse, and why every year you wait doesn't come back, no matter what the market does.

  • 239. Portfolio Withdrawal Mystery: Why Her Balance Looked Untouched Months After Pulling Out Thousand
    2026/09/07

    Send us Fan Mail

    A student of us called Francesca convinced her bank had made a mistake. She'd pulled a real amount of money out of her portfolio months earlier, and when she checked her balance, it looked exactly the same. Nobody made an error, and the truth behind it is more useful than any banking glitch could ever be.

    You'll learn:

    • Why a real withdrawal can seem to disappear from your balance within months, and what has to be true for that to happen
    • The difference between having money invested and having an actual plan, and why most people only ever build the first one
    • What's really happening in your body the moment before you click confirm on a withdrawal, and why that feeling isn't a flaw
    • What it takes to build a portfolio that lets you use your money now without losing the future you're building

  • 238. Money & Sex: Your Bank Account Is Secretly Costing You In Bed & You Never Connected THIS
    2026/09/03

    Send us Fan Mail

    There's a tax almost nobody talks about. It doesn't show up on a bank statement. It shows up somewhere much more personal and most women paying it don't even know they're paying it.

    This week on Money & Martinis, all four of us pour the drinks, close the doors, and go somewhere we don't normally go on this podcast: the quiet, unspoken link between how financially dependent a woman is and what actually happens between her and her partner behind closed doors.

    In this episode, you'll hear us get into:

    • Why you cannot be in survival mode and desire mode at the same time, according to how the nervous system actually works
    • The quiet dynamic that plays out in a relationship when one partner controls the money, and how it shapes far more than the budget
    • A real story from inside our own team about a big decision made without full agreement, and what it revealed about trust
    • Why some of the healthiest relationships aren't 50/50 at all, and what actually makes a partnership feel equal
    • The difference between a woman who earns and a woman who's simply present, and why those aren't always the same thing

    You don't have to say a word of this to your partner tonight. Nobody else has to know why you suddenly feel different.
