In this episode of the Santam Insure Your Future Money Bootcamp, my co-host Maya Fisher-French and I are joined by tax expert @AndreBothmaTax to simplify the filing process and empower you to handle your taxes with confidence.

We cover everything from SARS auto assessments and why you should review them carefully, to the importance of filing — even if you’re a student or freelancer. Andre also explains provisional tax, common deductions, eFiling tips, and how to avoid costly penalties.

Episode 1:

Money isn’t just about numbers — it’s emotional. In this episode of the Santam Insure Your Future Money Bootcamp, my co-host, Maya Fisher-French and I, explore the hidden impact of financial trauma. From the money messages we absorbed as children to the silent promises we made to ourselves (like "I’ll never be broke again"), our past experiences often shape how we earn, spend, save, or avoid money altogether.

We talk about how these deep-rooted patterns show up in adulthood — whether it's anxiety around checking your bank account or overspending to feel secure. We also share practical ways to start healing and shift your money mindset.
