In episode 268 of YOUR CAREER Podcast, Sydney based Career Coach and podcast host, Jane Jackson, speaks with Dr. Annie Cole, Ed.D. who is an expert money coach and financial educator.

Annie discusses how she was able to make several successful career transitions despite the challenges she faced. She shares that in her 20s, she was a burnt-out social worker struggling on a $26,000 salary.

However, by her 30s, Annie had climbed the ladder to a Vice President role, invested over $350k, owned $1 million in real estate, and cut 20 years off her retirement date.

She now runs her own coaching business, Money Essentials for Women, and inspires women to step into new levels of money mastery and confidence.

In this episode, Jane and Annie discuss how she now teaches women to master all areas of their finances, from budgeting and paying off debt to investing, building wealth, and retiring early.
