Episode 08: Lisa Conway-Hughes
Wealth Creation, Life Planning and Paternity Leave
My guest this week is Chartered Financial Advisor, author, podcaster and mum, Lisa Conway-Hughes, also known as Miss Lolly.
Lisa is on a mission to help people become more financially secure and manage their money to build the life of their dreams. Lisa is a speaker, podcast co-host of ‘She’s On The Money’, author of ‘Money Lessons: How to manage your finances to get the life you want’ and holds down a full-time position at a wealth management firm in the City.
In this episode, we talk about how the importance of financial wellbeing for self-care and how financial planning is actually about life planning. We discuss the importance of normalising paternity leave to address the gender wealth gap. We also dive into Lisa’s writing process and how she’s so productive with two young children!
