On this bonus episode, we hear from PensionBee customer, Sanna. Like so many, she's juggling family life, buying her first home, and trying to save for retirement - all at the same time. Since having her daughter and moving back in with family to save on rent, her pension savings have taken a back seat.
We unpack the choices Sanna has faced - from rising living costs and childcare to finding faith-aligned financial products - with the help of pension expert Rachael Oku, VP Brand and Communications at PensionBee. Plus, we share helpful guidance for prioritising your future savings while juggling the more immediate, everyday costs.
