🎙 Episode 200: What 200 Conversations Taught Me About Money, Confidence, and Legacy


It’s a major milestone—200 episodes of the Let’s Talk Money and More podcast! In this powerful solo episode, Lesley Thomas reflects on the transformational journey of hosting two hundred episodes that explore money, self-worth, identity, parenting, and the stories that shape us.


From business owners and financial experts to everyday parents and emerging leaders, Lesley has spent the past few years having meaningful conversations that go beyond spreadsheets and savings. Today, she distills the most profound truths she’s discovered into 10 personal reflections that will shift how you see yourself, your money, and your influence.


💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:


✅ Why money confidence begins with identity, not income

✅ The pressure to be ‘perfect’ before becoming a role model—and why that’s a myth

✅ How guilt holds parents back from taking action, and what to do instead

✅ Why emotional regulation matters more than financial literacy

✅ The power of tiny, consistent habits in building long-term money confidence

✅ How this podcast became a movement—and why the next chapter is just beginning


🧠 Key Takeaways:

✨ “Being present creates change. Showing up now, no matter when you start—that’s what matters most.”

✨ “We inherit money behaviours long before we understand money itself.”

✨ “Curiosity is what softens shame and opens the door to confidence.”
