## Resource

What if the world of finance was never designed with women in mind? In this special episode, Mel sits down with Lawsie to talk about her new book, Dare to Be Wealthy and the deeper truth behind why wealth still feels uncomfortable, taboo or "not for us" for so many women. This isn't just a conversation about investing, debt or super. It's about the subtle messages women absorb over a lifetime that shape how we earn, spend, save and dream, often without even realising it. Mel shares the personal experiences she's never spoken about publicly before, why she believes women need a financial revolution, and the biggest myths keeping women from building real financial independence. We also explore the things traditional finance books never talk about including hormones, ADHD, shame, reinvention, and why so many capable women still believe they've left it too late. If you've ever felt behind, overwhelmed, or quietly unsure whether wealth is really "for you," this episode is your reminder that it is. And that it's never too late to begin. In This Episode, We Cover • Why the word dare matters and why wealth can still feel rebellious (or shameful or icky ) for women • The hidden money messages women absorb growing up • Why shame keeps so many women stuck in debt or inaction • The biggest misconception about investing (and why it's simpler than you think) • How hormones, ADHD and life transitions affect financial decisions • Why financial independence is about choice, not greed • What Mel hopes women feel when they finish Dare to Be Wealthy For more tips and resources, visit us at melissabrowne.com.au , on Facebook, Instagram or TikTok @MelBrowne.Money or send us an email at hello@melissabrowne.com.au .
