Work-life balance with Lorraine Candy and recession-proof your finances

On this episode of the AJ Bell Money Matters podcast Laura and Danni ask what the UK officially being in recession means for your finances – and run through some practical measures you can put in place.

They also hear from Lorraine Candy – former editor-in-chief of Elle and Cosmopolitan magazines, author of a book on raising teenage daughters and co-host of the excellent podcast “Postcards from Midlife”.  She shares her struggle of striving to find work-life balance, her surprise that most of the women she interviewed for jobs over the years never asked about money, and finding new purpose in her 50s.
