Who, What, When, Where, Why??

 

My name is Sarah, I am 22 years old from little ol' New Zealand and I am the host of The OneUp Project. This is a community aimed to get young people excited about sorting out the traditionally boring stuff! Financial literacy and self development is what we focus on here but without the serious crap. 

Nothing worse than trying to take ahold of your life, only to be bored to death by tired and irrelevant information! My goal is to change that completely.

I finished university completing a bachelors degree in business, majoring in accounting (see episode 40 for my thoughts on uni..). and have worked at PriceWaterhouseCoopers for the last 10 months! 

Someone once asked me which KiwiSaver provider I was with, I said - what's a provider? Then they asked what my contribution rate was, I said - what rate? 

This is NOT allgood. Our education system has a responsibility to prepare us for "the real world" but that never seems to happen. I don't think this is anyones fault, if anything it is just a result of doing things the same way because that's how we have always done it right? So why change?

There are actually many cheat codes to life which we discuss on here and I can't wait to share more with you! I have interviewed over 40 industry experts, leaders, creatives and professionals in their various fields. These leaders have some great insight and we should soak up as much of it as possible! Come over and have a listen just to one episode and then let me know what you think!!

I look forward to chatting soon.
