The Information Advantage | How to Build a Smarter Investing Mindset

Описание: In this episode of Loud Investing, Chanel is joined by Naomi Kerbel, a longtime mentor and one of the most experienced leaders in global financial media. Naomi has held senior roles at some of the world’s most respected business and financial news organisations and brings a rare perspective from decades spent at the centre of information, markets, and decision making.

Together, they explore Naomi’s recent journey into investing, how her media background shapes the way she consumes information, and how anyone can build a calmer, more intentional approach to money and media, even with a busy life and competing priorities.

You Will Hear Highlights On:
• How Naomi’s career from acting to banking to financial media shaped her relationship with money
• How she went from only saving to saving and investing with intention
• How to think about values, legacy, and long term wealth
• What a solid information diet looks like in practice
• How to reduce emotional reactions to news and social media
• Why conversations about money matter, especially among women

Actionable Steps You Can Take Toward Your Financial Future:
1. Define your values: Think about what matters to you long term and let that guide how you save and invest.
2. Curate your information: Choose a small number of trusted sources and build a daily or weekly routine around them.
3. Create space for reflection: Use quiet moments to review your finances and purchasing decisions rather than reacting to headlines in real time.
