You’re smashing your financial goals, debt’s going down, confidence’s going up, and then that little voice pipes up: “Should I be investing too?” This week, we’re unpacking the guilt trip of the financially responsible.

Acknowledgement: the acceptance of the truth or existence of something. Does your life ever get difficult after getting acknowledgement, accolades, compliments or awards? Tune in to Being Here and relax into the greatness of being you.

Call to Faith and Repentance Personal Testimony Inability to preach without God's presence. Acknowledges reliance on God since being called to preach. Admits personal failings but emphasizes God's faithfulness. Invitation to approach the altar for prayer and repentance. Encouragement to seek humility and communicate with God. Reassurance of God's willingness to listen to His children. Accessibility of prayer beyond the church setting. Personal experience of conversing with God while driving. Urgency to address spiritual needs immediately rather than delaying. Scriptural Reflection (Job 14) Acknowledgement of life's brevity and challenges. Reference to the fleeting nature of life, comparing it to a flower. Prayer for divine guidance and blessing. Request for the Holy Spirit's presence and direction in words and actions. The Universality of Trouble Life before salvation as a troubled time. Personal experience of being "doomed for a devil's hell" before salvation. Troubles persist even after salvation. Troubles are incomparable to the trouble of not knowing Jesus Christ. Salvation through Jesus Christ as the ultimate solution to life's troubles. The Cleansing Power of Jesus Christ The Unique Ability of Jesus to Cleanse Only Jesus can make a man's vessel fair. Salvation comes from Jesus Christ, not from any man. Rejection of the idea that signing a card can guarantee salvation. Emphasis on the necessity of the Holy Spirit's conviction and repentance. Importance of touching Jesus' blood for salvation. Personal Testimony of Salvation Personal experience of being saved at the altar. The preacher could not cleanse the heart, only Jesus could. God's love demonstrated through the sacrifice of Jesus. Jesus experienced human suffering to save humanity. God knows what individuals are going through and wants to help. Caution and Discernment in Seeking Spiritual Guidance The Importance of Sound Doctrine Doctors and scientists can cure diseases, but only Jesus can save from hell. Caution against false teachers and preachers. Some preachers distort the gospel and remove the blood of Jesus from their teachings. Need to ensure preachers are teaching the true gospel. The need to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. The gospel should be preached in truth and spirit. The Corrupting Influence of Sin and the Cleansing Power of Christ The Inevitability of Sin As people live longer, they become more corrupt. The heart becomes filled with sin. Only Jesus can cleanse a dirty heart. Jesus' willingness to be crucified demonstrates His love. His sacrifice allows people to be eternally with Him in heaven. The Importance of Repentance and Forgiveness Elder Roger still sins, but has a place to return to for forgiveness. The Holy Spirit convicts the heart when one sins. One can ask for forgiveness and receive it immediately. God is still in control, no matter how bad things get. Those saved by Jesus Christ have a better place waiting for them. The Promise of Heaven and the Importance of Salvation The Hope of Heaven Looking forward to going home to heaven. Anticipation of seeing castles, streets of gold, and a mansion. God built a mansion in heaven for Elder Roger. Jesus laid down His life and bled for humanity. He was beaten so that people could have a mansion in heaven. The Call to Salvation God knows each person's heart and what troubles them. There is no shame in talking to God. It is more shameful not to talk to God. One should not carry burdens alone. One can come to God's house and praise Him. Give Him honor for what He has done. If one needs His honors,

Peter Cronau, esteemed investigative journalist and editor of Declassified Australia, joined Inez to discuss the shocking discovery that 69 shipments of F-35 fighter jet parts, likely many more, have been flown on commercial passenger planes to Israel from Australia as recently as last week. In part 1 of the conversation, aired last week on Thursday Breakfast, Peter discussed how this routine operation is carried out in secret. Today in part 2, we learn more about the freedom of information request, department of defense's defensive reply, and what is next for the Willamtown base as the main F35 base for the asia-pacific region. Lockheed Martin's F-35 Fighter Jets have been described as their most lethal, stealth fighter jet, playing a critical role in the genocide in Gaza, Palestine as well as other global atrocities.

Ever done something just because it’s what you’re supposed to do? Well, this week's diarist did the opposite. While everyone else was drowning in student debt and instant noodles, she was saving, flying, and somehow adulting better than all of us. She bought a house in her early twenties, lived overseas for years, and came home with more life experience than any degree could buy. Spoiler: doing life “out of order” might’ve been the smartest move she ever made. Inside this diary, we get into skipping-uni guilt, working smarter than your parents planned for, and how to build a life that actually feels good, not just looks good on LinkedIn.

How do you create genuine relationships with your content? In this episode of The Powerful Content Podcast, Mel is diving into what connection really means when it comes to your content. Being visible doesn't automatically create connection. You can post consistently, follow all the advice, and still feel like your content isn't landing. Genuine connection is what turns followers into true fans who want to be in your world.

We all want to be the parent who “sets the kids up,” right? But between savings accounts, offsets, and “future nest egg” fantasies it's hard to know what to do. So this week we’re breaking down how to actually make your money work harder (for you and your mini-me). Then things get spicy with a DM that split the community: she’s saved $150K, he’s got $64K, and they both want to own the house 50/50. Do you still go halves? Do you lawyer up? Or do you just call it “love tax”? We get into what’s fair, what’s smart, and how to buy a house together without starting a civil war.Just another Friday of money wins, rogue broke tips, and a little financial drama to keep things spicy. Need the team’s take on your money dilemma? Send us a voicemail here.Or if it's more of a spicy money drama and you want the communities verdict? Slide into our DMs here.

What if your "little side-hustle" became the next big brand everyone’s talking about? That’s exactly what happened to Alyce Tran, the ex-lawyer who turned a $5K side project into The Daily Edited, built stores in New York and Singapore. Then, because one cult brand wasn’t enough, she launched In The Roundhouse, the tableware label making dinner look like a fashion moment. In this ep Victoria finds out exactly how Alyce went from corporate girlie with a creative itch to a serial founder of cult-status brands. You'll here the actual money story of how she bootstrapped both brands without investors, made big collab moves on a budget, and learned that million-dollar months don’t magically cure the “not enough” feeling.

Ever feel like everyone else’s life is speeding ahead while you’re stuck in the slow lane? This week’s Money Diarist knows that feeling too well. While her friends were off travelling, she was juggling uni deadlines and midnight feeds. At 17, she was pregnant and kicked out of school for being a “bad example.” Instead of giving up, she finished Year 12 through TAFE, raised her baby, went to uni, and rebuilt her life from scratch, all while living on Centrelink. Fast forward a decade and she’s earning six figures, owns her home, and has cleared every cent of personal debt. But getting here meant facing down shame, comparison, and that constant feeling of being “behind”… so this ep is full of the real talk we all need to hear. This episode is your reminder that it doesn’t matter where you start, you can still build something incredible from right where you are.GET VICTORIA'S BUDGETING SYSTEM: Master your cashflow here.Ready to binge more relatable, inspiring, and downright juicy money stories?

Ever feel like your money goals are at war with your life goals? Like one minute you’re saving for a house… and the next you’re convincing yourself a Euro summer is “an investment in personal growth”? This week’s DM came from someone stuck right there... her partner’s all-in on buying a home, while she’s eyeing flights. And honestly? We get it. Because trying to choose between living life and getting ahead feels like an impossible math problem. So we’re unpacking whether travel really sets you back… or if it’s just a different kind of wealth that doesn’t show up in your net worth. Victoria's breaking down how to make those big-money decisions (trips, weddings, babies, the whole lot) without losing sight of Future You, or resenting Current You for having fun. And speaking of big milestones… we’re also getting real about how to actually prep for parental leave. From test-driving life on one income to building a “sanity fund” that actually covers what you’ll really need, not just the boring stuff. Plus, it's Friday so there's all the money wins, broke tips and money goss you love. Need the team’s take on your money dilemma?

My guest today is Knut Svanholm, author, educator, and philosopher focused on Bitcoin. Drawing on ethics, praxeology, and monetary history, Knut argues that sound money reduces conflict by aligning human action with natural law and voluntary exchange. In this episode, he explains why fiat banking already functions like a CBDC system in practice, why cash preserves privacy but not liberty, and why real freedom requires self custody and non-KYC Bitcoin. We explore his critique of custodial “paper Bitcoin,” the case for non-custodial adoption over treasury companies, and his view of Bitcoin as intellectual armor that raises the cost of violence. Knut outlines a practical path away from banks, explains why stablecoins can be a bridge yet remain fiat, and why a low-time-preference culture of quality over quantity matters.► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.

Retiring early is the ultimate dream... so when Brooke casually dropped that she’s on track to do it by 35 (without the Bank of Mum and Dad), you all screamed a collective “HOW?!” So of course, Victoria had to get her back in the studio to spill everything... and more importantly, share what the rest of us can steal from her strategy without living on two-minute noodles. Turns out, it’s not magic, she started on a $50K salary and built it dollar by dollar with smart habits, steady investing, and a money plan that’s more about options than obsession. Think of this as your crash course in Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE) for people who still love a little bit of fun money. Because the real flex isn’t retiring early, it’s having the kind of financial independence that lets you choose what your dream life looks like.Inside this ep:

My guest is DJ Shipley, a former Tier 1 operator Navy SEAL and now a top public educator on how to build mental and physical health and reach top-level performance in any endeavor. DJ's life is one marked by extraordinary strivings, wins, setbacks and comebacks that together have shaped his approach to overcoming challenges of all kinds and to daily life. DJ explains a regimen of clear, practical steps and a mental stance that can allow anyone—male, female, young or old—to build extreme resilience of mind and body and to be successful in family and work. We also discuss his experience with new, emerging treatments for addiction, PTSD and depression that many people, not just veterans, are benefiting from. The tools DJ describes to “stack small wins” and to be ultra-intentional about your mindset will be of immense benefit to anyone wishing to achieve the best version of themselves.

Ever wondered what it really costs to turn a light-bulb moment into something real? This week’s Money Diarist is a mum of two who did exactly that. She created a world-first product that launched just two weeks ago, and now she’s here to do what most founders wouldn’t: spill on every dollar it took to make it happen. From losing out to a dodgy sourcing agency to somehow pulling together $200K through pure determination, she’s laying it all out... the risks and the real-world chaos of betting on yourself. Inside the ep, we what it actual costs to get a product made, and how she’s juggling start-up life, toddler meltdowns, and a mortgage. It’s messy, bold, and so unbelievably relatable.

Have you ever wondered if you can use home equity to buy something else you need… like a car? The low interest rate makes it sound like the ultimate hack, but would it really be the money win it feels like... or are you just turning a car loan into a decades-long debt trap? We’ve got the receipts. And just when we thought we’d seen it all, a community member slid into our DMs with a first-birthday invite that came with a twist: instead of saying no presents, it asked for something that we'd never heard of before. Is it genius, or the kind of ick that makes you want to run to Kmart for a noisy plastic toy out of spite? We’re divided, the community’s divided, and you’re definitely going to have thoughts. Of course, it wouldn’t be Friday without your fave money wins, broke tips and a sprinkle of our signature unhinged chaos to kick off the weekend.Need the team’s take on your money dilemma?

We’ve all heard HECS is a deal-breaker for your borrowing capacity… but is it really the villain it's made out to be? We’ve got the tea on how much your HECS actually matters when you’re trying to get a loan... and let’s just say, the maths might surprise you.

Ever wondered if the hobby that you love could be the thing that pays your rent? That’s the story of Alice (Miss Trixie Drinks Tea) and Alisha (Sweet Bakes), two women who turned frosting and fun into booming businesses. And after fangirling over each other on socials and becoming baking besties IRL, they did what most of us only joke about... they started a business together. From side-hustle beginnings to sold-out retreats in France, brand collabs, and even launching their own pastel-pink kitchen space and creative hub, these two have learnt exactly what it takes to turn passion into profit and start a business with your bestie without blowing up your friendship.

Surprise! No Money Diary today... V has hijacked your Monday feed for something different. Think of this one as a little love note from her to you (with a side of tough-love pep talk). Because if you’ve ever scrolled past someone’s new house, new ring, new six-figure job and thought “cool, I’m officially behind on life”… this episode is basically your antidote. Victoria is here to rip up the money timeline, call BS on hustle culture, and admit that success might look more like coffee in the sun than climbing some imaginary ladder. Inside this ep:

Ever wondered if sharing an investment account is romantic… or just risky business?

We’ve all been told property is the “safe” investment. But this week’s Money Diarist learned the hard way that’s not always true. She thought she was making the smart move buying a second investment property. Instead, she ended up with a building so dodgy it dragged her through years of court battles, left her with no rental income, and forced her to sell the first house she loved just to stay afloat. Now she’s picking up the pieces, rebuilding from zero and now has good things coming her way. Listen in to hear the biggest lesson she's learnt.

Should you hold off on buying until the property market cools… or is waiting the real mistake? We’ve all heard the classic “just wait two years, prices will drop” advice, but what if that never actually happens and you’ve in a worse position? This week we’re unpacking the market peak panic and what it actually means for you if you’re trying to buy right now. Then, we dive into a community DM about a partner with $40k of debt and zero urgency to pay it down. Is that just a personal choice, or a financial dealbreaker waiting to happen? But it’s not just big dilemmas on the table, we’ve also got clever money wins you’ll want to steal, broke tips that actually work, and a few confessions that prove none of us have it all together.

We finally got to do it... sit down with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and ask the money questions that actually matter to you. Not the political theatre ones, but the real-life stuff that keeps you up at night: the weekly food shop, housing that feels out of reach, and childcare costs that just don’t add up. But this wasn’t all serious policy talk. We dug into his own money story, swapped budgeting habits, and even threw him some of our favourite spicy questions; from Trump’s tariffs to his most unpopular money opinion. His answers? Let’s just say they weren’t what we expected. In this ep:

Victoria and Brooke are always swapping notes on the shares and ETFs they’re watching... so we thought, why not let you in on the chat? This isn’t a “go out and buy” list. It’s the inside scoop on how they think about investing, what’s caught their eye, why it’s on the radar, and what has to happen before they’d actually jump in. It's the kind of financial gossip we live for, and it’s your chance to get pervy about what’s living rent-free in their investing brains right now.In this ep you’ll hear:

Have you ever wanted to pack a bag, vanish from your old life? That’s exactly what this week’s Money Diarist did when her world flipped upside down at 21 and she had everything taken away from her, and it became the start of a money story she never saw coming. What began as a running-away chapter chasing her love of travel turned into years of odd jobs, fishing boats, and tour guiding, where lifestyle always came first and paycheques came second. But somewhere between chasing adventure and moving towns, she quietly built the foundation for a financial glow-up that would shock even her. Fast forward to today and she’s earning serious money, living far smaller than her income would suggest, and stacking wealth in ways that don’t make sense until you hear the full story. There are moments in this diary that will have you gasping, laughing, and maybe questioning your own risk tolerance. Ready to binge more relatable, inspiring, and downright juicy money stories?

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, sheds light on the hidden sacrifices that first responder families (Amazon Affiliate) make every single day. While spouses and children never signed up for the job, they still feel the ripple effects of shift work, emotional strain, and the unpredictability that comes with life in service. We unpack the emotional labor your loved ones carry—often silently—and how to acknowledge, support, and protect them without losing yourself to the demands of the badge. Understanding Secondary Service: How spouses and kids are impacted by missed holidays, unpredictable schedules, and constant worry. The way this secondary service can shape identity and family dynamics. The Emotional Toll on Loved Ones: Recognizing signs of stress, anxiety, or resentment in your spouse and children. Why unspoken worries can be just as heavy as the dangers of the job itself. Invisible Shifts at Home: How partners often shoulder the household and parenting duties alone during your shifts. The mental exhaustion of “covering” for an absent parent or spouse. The Role of Unpredictability: How canceled plans, late calls, and changing shifts affect trust and emotional connection. Why communication about unpredictability matters more than you think. The Silent Strength of Support Systems: How family members adapt to crisis without formal training. The toll of always being “on call” emotionally, even when you're not home. Strategies to Help Protect Your Family's Peace: Intentional Communication: Create a safe space for your spouse and kids to express frustrations without fear of judgment. Scheduled Family Time: Make non-negotiable dates on the calendar that aren't easily sacrificed to work. Acknowledgement and Gratitude: Verbally recognize the sacrifices your loved ones make—and do it often. Healthy Decompression Habits: Process your job stress before walking through the front door to avoid emotional spillover. Shared Resources and Support: Connect your family with counseling, peer support groups, or other first responder families for understanding and solidarity. Your family may not wear the uniform, but they carry its weight alongside you. In this episode, you'll learn how to ensure their service doesn't come at the expense of their well-being—or yours.
