Financial Planner and podcast host Tamsin Caine is interviewed by her colleague and fellow Financial Planner Steven Martin. He asks how financial planning can help those who are going through separation and divorce, why Smart Divorce was created and about Tamsin's passion for helping couples, especially parents, to part amicably.

Director of Financial Planning and Chartered Financial Planner Tamsin Caine has a strong background of over 15 years within the financial services profession. She began Smart Divorce following her own experience with divorce; she now advises people in the same situation as she once was, enabling them to take back control of their life and finances.

Steve, along with wife Michelle, established Smart Financial in October 2008. He has nearly 20 years’ experience in the profession, having been a Partner and Managing Director at previous firms and is a Chartered and Certified Financial Planner (CFP), a holder of the Investment Management Certificate and a former Assessor of the CFP licence.

Steve was an active member of the Manchester branch of the IFP before its amalgamation with the CISI, holding the position of Chair from 2009 until 2014. He also used to sit on the Financial and Legal Sector Panel. He speaks regularly at Financial Planning meetings around the country and is also a regular contributor to a wide range of feature articles on financial and money management related subjects across trade, local and national press.
