Good with Money
*** WINNER OF THE BEST PERSONAL FINANCE BOOK SILVER AWARD IN THE INVESTING INSIDERS FINANCIAL BOOK AWARDS 2025 ***
Have you ever avoided looking at your banking app after a big night out? Placed an online order during a late-night doomscroll? Felt helpless when your new budget simply failed to stick, despite your best intentions?
If that sounds familiar, this is the book for you.
In the age of smartphones and social media, we're surrounded by an endless stream of stuff we could buy, not to mention social conditioning around what makes us happy, as well as fast fashion, algorithmic advertising and 'where did you get that?' culture.
Financial behaviour expert Emma Edwards will help you unpack the reasons you're so emotionally tangled with your money (spoiler: it's absolutely not your fault) and look at what might be keeping you stuck. She'll teach you to reclaim your decision-making, deep-dive into your beliefs, identity and habits, and come out the other side feeling 'good with money'.
With a step-by-step guide to creating a money management system that actually works, Good With Money will change the way you think about budgeting, consumption and yourself, and put you back in the driver's seat of your own financial future.
