It's No Secret

It’s No Secret is a podcast for Kiwis who want their money questions answered.


Are you wondering when the right time to get on the property ladder, whether you should invest with family or how to talk to your significant other about investing and budgeting? 


If yes, you’re in the right place. Join the Kernel team, alongside some special guests, as they take you through the ins and outs of all things finance, money, property, investing and building wealth so you can move towards achieving financial freedom. 


Each Wednesday, we’ll release one episode that answers a specific money question. 


No long ramblings and no financial jargon. Investing hacks, budgeting tips, and financial freedom are included.

You’ll be left feeling inspired, relieved and ready to take the next step in your financial journey.
