A Little Bit Richer

Divorce can emotionally, practically and financially turn your world upside down. In this episode of A Little Bit Richer, our host Iona Bain is joined by friend of the show Jenny Hazan to unpack the impact on your finances when a relationship ends and how to protect your future. Drawing on both her professional expertise at L&G and her personal experience of divorce, Jenny explains why separation is often “two break-ups”, how the so-called “singles tax” can hit overnight, and she shares one of the most overlooked areas of divorce that can prevent regret later in life. Whether you’re navigating a divorce, supporting someone who is, or simply want to be better prepared for the future, this episode offers reassurance and practical steps for taking control of your finances one step at a time.
