You only need to look at the reviews to see the huge impact this podcast is having on its listeners’ lives.One of the things that Jason has challenged me on through our discussions, and through listening to his podcast, is my relationship with money. As a senior leader for many years, I've had the good fortune to have earnt some excellent salaries. But with each increase in my salary, my expenses went up as well which meant that no matter how much I was earning I was still living paycheck to paycheck.Whilst I have loved all the roles I have held, I will admit that there have been times where the pressure of having to continue to earn at a particular level has added pressure to an already high pressure role. From listening to and learning from Jason, someone who in his own words is ‘Financially independent’, over the past year I have gained better awareness into how our relationship with money impacts our relationships with the work we do. I am delighted for Jason to join us today to share with us his insights of how we can free ourselves up to focus on what really matters.Jason’s contact details:Jason Graystone Website: http://www.jasongraystone.comEmail: info@jasongraystone.comFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/jasongraystoneInstagram: http://instagram.com/j_graystoneTwitter: http://twitter.com/jasongraystoneLinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/jasongraystonePodcast: http://bit.ly/alwaysfreepodcast
