Kate Campbell, welcome to this episode of the Australian Finance Podcast. It's good to be back, Owen. Yeah, we've got a very special guest with us. One of the OGs, or the OG of the Australian Finance Podcast, Bronwyn, aka Miss Moneybox. How are you going?
I'm good. How are you?
Very well, thanks.
It's been a long time. We haven't seen you on the podcast since May 2019. When we were in a different office with different microphones and didn't know what we were doing.
Yeah, we were just talking off air, just reminiscing of the time we all met each other. And one of those stories was you moved from Sydney, Bronwyn, to Melbourne. And I messaged you on Twitter.
That's right. And we had coffee.
Yeah, a bit of a rando.
And you had a broken foot.
Yeah, yeah. I don't know if I was on crutches at the time, but I would have been around then. And we went to Manchester Press here in Melbourne. We did. Yep. They do good bagels. And good coffee. Good coffee. Strong coffee. And you guys met each other, we think, in person first time. Late 2018 at one of your events.
What are the systemic barriers affecting women's Superannuation in Australia?
Yep. That's cool. Isn't that funny?
Internet friends in real life. IRL.
It happens.
And so you've been on the podcast before.
Yes.
But this is the first, I guess, opportunity for you to share publicly what you've been working on, which is super cool. Really exciting and we've been looking forward to doing this because Kate and I want to talk about super more often. But in particular, we often come up against this huge challenge which is getting women involved in the financial conversation and particularly when we talk about investing. We see it when we do investing events, mostly men. And you've just kind of excelled in this area of trying to understand the barriers and what women can do in particular to kind of right the ship insofar as super.
Yes.
So we're going to talk about that throughout this podcast. Before we get to that, Kate, can you just tell us what is super?
Yeah. So for a quick refresher, and we didn't want to touch on it too much because we have done some earlier episodes on super and I'll link to them in the show notes, but superannuation is essentially the money that's supposed to keep you going in retirement.
