Welcome to Novem Nexus: Navigating Your Financial Narrative, where we explore the various topics of finance, the stories, strategies, and psychology behind our financial decisions with host Greg Wagner as we dive into the intersection between finance and the human experience.
The financial landscape is saturated with advice and rules, Novem Nexus aims to stand out by focusing on the underlying motivations, beliefs, and emotions that drive our financial behavior. We explore not only the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of finance but, more importantly, the ‘why.’ At Novem Group, we believe that finance is not just about numbers and equations; it’s about real people with real emotions. That’s what this podcast is all about: understanding the reasons behind our financial decisions and uncovering the narratives that shape our financial lives.
Novem Nexus is more than just a podcast. Connect with us on social media, share your experiences, and join the conversation. Together, let’s navigate our financial narratives with confidence. Welcome to Novem Nexus: Navigating Your Financial Narrative.
