Guest Speaker: Callum Rafferty
Personal Finance Educator & Author
Callum spent fifteen years working in banking before realizing that most financial advice completely misses how people actually live. He left to focus on teaching practical money management to families dealing with real constraints.
His book "Money Without the Guilt" came out of conversations with hundreds of people who felt like they were failing financially when they were just working with difficult circumstances. It's become a resource we recommend often.
Special Session: When Standard Advice Doesn't Fit
Callum will lead a discussion on 20 July about adapting savings strategies when you're dealing with irregular income, health costs, or supporting family members. This session fills up quickly.
Virtual Learning Sessions
2 June 2026
Savings Automation Setup
A guided session on setting up automatic transfers that actually match your pay cycle and expenses. We'll walk through banking apps together so you leave with everything configured.
16 June 2026
Comparing Savings Accounts
Interest rates, access restrictions, bonus conditions—it gets confusing. We'll compare current options from Australian banks and help you figure out what matters for your situation.
5 July 2026
Mid-Year Money Check
Halfway through the year is a good time to look at what's working and what isn't. We'll review common patterns people notice at this point and adjust strategies accordingly.
23 July 2026
Planning for Irregular Expenses
Car registration, insurance, school costs—these predictable but irregular expenses wreck budgets. We'll build a system that spreads the impact across months instead of creating crisis moments.
What Past Attendees Say
I'd been to other financial workshops that just made me feel worse about my situation. maravithon's approach was different—they acknowledged that saving is hard when you're already stretched thin. The emergency fund workshop gave me a plan I could actually follow with my income. Six months later, I've got $2,400 saved. Not huge, but it's there when something breaks.
