Giving back: Building legacy through meaningful philanthropy
A podcast by Commonwealth Private
Speaking of Wealth is a podcast series hosted by Naomi Simson, who engages with industry experts and Commonwealth Private specialists to explore the ideas, opportunities, and shifts shaping modern wealth and decision‑making.
Philanthropy remains one of the most impactful ways to contribute to community and create lasting, values‑aligned legacy. In this episode, Naomi is joined by Josephine Hanna, National Head of Ultra High Net Wealth at Commonwealth Private, and Fiona Higgins, founding director and Specialist Advisor, Giving at Australian Philanthropic Services. Together, the conversation explores how structured giving—ranging from foundations to hands‑on volunteering—can support meaningful causes and form a purposeful part of an individual’s broader approach to wealth and impact.
