Liabilities, Debt & Peace of Mind: The Wealth Zen

--:--
On this week’s Wealth Zen segment, part of The Social Impact Show with Sam Marshall, regular contributor Charmaine Soobramoney returns with a timely financial deep dive into a word many of us avoid: liabilities.

With South Africans facing record levels of personal debt, Sharmain unpacks:
💳 What good and bad debt really mean
📉 How unexamined liabilities quietly eat into your future
📒 The power of doing a personal “liability audit” to regain control
🧘‍♀️ Why the path to wealth is also the path to peace

Whether it’s a credit card you forgot about, or lifestyle inflation disguised as success, this episode challenges us all to face the numbers, reclaim our power, and start the real journey toward long-term financial freedom.

🎧 Tune into Wealth Zen every Tuesday after 11AM on The Social Impact Show — and get your money mindset aligned.
