Ep 7 - Navigating Consumerism and Living Well with Less - Zach Holz

The Good Intentions Podcast

My guest this week is Zach Holz. Zach is a teacher, a finance expert, a serial expat and a general all round brilliant human being. You might know him from his blog: The Happiest Teacher, or from his weekly columns in The National newspaper here in the UAE.

He’s one of those great people who is on a constant quest for self-improvement, who in the process also wants to share what he’s found with others.

We talked about his relentless positivity, what being an expat has taught him, how we can best help our children navigate technology and how his zealous attitude to savings and investment has given him financial freedom.

His enthusiasm is completely infectious and we had such a great conversation. I left him feeling inspired and uplifted - I hope you do too.
