The business Of living by Angela 3 Episodes Oct 13, 2026

Host Angela draws on her experience in financial services and in construction and interior finishing to talk about the everyday business of building a life. The show covers money, marriage, raising children, career, home, and the feeling of figuring things out as you go. Episodes offer practical conversations, honest reflections, and a bit of laughter, with room for listeners to work through their own questions. Rather than pretending anyone has a manual, it explores how to make a life that actually feels like yours.
