If the thought of maths stresses you out, you may have maths anxiety.
Research suggests those higher in maths anxiety have a harder time making sound financial decisions, and it has negative impacts on education and employment.
The good news is, you can improve your numeracy skills as an adult and, along the way, become better able to wrangle the numbers in your life.
Guests:
Andie Storozuk, doctoral candidate and researcher in experimental psychology at the University of Ottawa
Chris Tully, adult maths educator and literacy and numeracy coordinator at Melbourne Polytechnic
