Whether you're a new or experienced investor, expanding your knowledge builds confidence and supports your success.

We publish three times a week across the following categories:

Ideas & Motivation: Stories that motivate and encourage you to think differently.

Now & Noteworthy: Insights into current events, viewed through an investing lens.

Tech & Culture: What's new in cultural trends, entertainment, technology and more.

Investing Academy: From options to equities, expand your knowledge with our new investing guides (featuring easy-to-follow illustrations) and find answers to timely topics in our Question of the Week feature.

You can find the homepage by clicking on the logo at the top of this (or any) magazine article, or by clicking "Inspired Investor” in the Most Recent From Inspired Investor bar at the bottom of your home and holdings pages.

Inspired Investor is brought to you by the RBC Direct Investing Content Team, who draw on their journalism roots to offer you stories that matter.

Leigh Felesky, Managing Editor, has worked in digital journalism and client experience for almost two decades, crafting award-winning content programs for large global companies and publishers. A self-confessed news junkie with a fondness for personal stories and "smart charts," Leigh believes in making investing a way of life. She's been a self-directed investor for as long as she can remember.

Judy McKinnon, Senior Producer, has worked in financial journalism for more than 20 years as an editor and writer. Covering everything from management shakeups to corporate axe throwing has helped her hone her skills for the world of self-directed investing.

Kanwal Rafiq, Associate Producer, is a journalist-turned-digital-experience innovator. With a background in consuming and creating stories through visuals and words, she applies design thinking down to the story level. When she's not telling stories, she's eating cake.

Special thanks to members of the broader RBC Direct Investing team, who support and inspire us every day with great ideas, knowledge and insights.
