About the Show
Mortgage Content That Actually Feels Human
The Mortgage Muse is a video podcast built for everyday Canadians who are tired of confusing bank jargon and cookie-cutter advice.

Hosted by Cari McClelland, a Licensed Mortgage Broker with over a decade of HR background and a genuine love for helping people understand their options, not just close their deals. Expect honesty, a little humour, and the kind of clarity you wish someone had given you years ago.
