Despite rising interest rates and policy changes, investor activity remains strong in key areas like WA, South Australia, and Queensland. Let's look at what's driving these shifts.

With better affordability and strong rental yields, Perth is becoming a top choice for those priced out of other states. I'll share why acting now could be smarter than waiting.

Today, I deep dive into Perth's building industry bottleneck and how it's impacting housing costs and prices of established properties. Since my last update, high population growth has only increased demand, with around 25,000 new homes needed each year to keep up! We'll look into the hurdles facing the building sector, like rising construction costs, project delays, and land price increases. With even more builders recently going bust, building a new home is getting pricier, and consumer confidence is taking a hit, pushing affordability even further out of reach. As difficult as this is for home buyers, it's all adding up to giving me even greater confidence that established prices will continue to rise.  Let's go inside.   Resource Links: Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property  (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/) Join the Perth Property Investment Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/perthpropertyinvestors) Join Jarrad Mahon's Property Investor Update (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/join) For more info on our award-winning and highly rated Property Management services that give you guaranteed peace of mind (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/perth-property-management-specialists/) For more info on how our Property Sales services can ensure you get the best selling price while handling all the stress for you (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/selling-your-perth-property/)       Episode Highlights: Intro [00:00] Building Bottleneck and Its Impact on Property Prices [00:52] Demand and Population Growth [01:36] Supply and Commencements [04:04] Construction Delays and Industry Challenges [05:45] Cost of Building and Land Prices [08:36] Impact on Affordability and Market Outlook [13:50]   Thank you for tuning in!

As Lauren says again and again, if you want to see less human trafficking in the USA, start by surrounding vulnerable families while children are young. The majority of domestic trafficking cases involve children who have aged out of or who have interacted with the U.S. foster system.  Lauren was eager to interview Sarah because of her extensive experience in family advocacy.

Whatever you are facing, whatever part of this journey of infertility or loss you are on, God sees you. He loves you, and He not only walks you through the valley to the mountaintop, but He sits with you in the depths of your despair as He strengthens you. His power is made perfect in our weakness. [2 Corinthians 12:9]After serving in ministry for 13 years at Gateway Church in Southlake, TX, Preston, his wife Holly, and their three kids were sent out to Scottsdale, AZ to plant a church and fulfill the dream God put in his heart nearly two decades earlier.  Preston has a gift of communicating truth in a transformative way that awakens people's hearts to the insatiable, overwhelming, undeserving love of the Father. Today, he joins us to discuss the heart of God towards His daughters. It's no secret that within the church community, even those with the best intentions can inadvertently inflict wounds during our trials of infertility and loss. Their words, often unintentionally, carve into the tender places of our souls, leaving behind burdens of shame we were never meant to bear.Today, as Preston speaks, let his words become a beacon of hope, piercing through the darkness of any shame you've carried. May the boundless love of God saturate this message, breaking down every barrier and healing every hurt within your heart.Know this: You are not walking this journey alone. In the midst of your pain, God sees you. We see you. And fiercely, unconditionally, you are loved.Episode Highlights: Intro to Preston Morrison.The God of the valleys.You are seen.Preston shares about his wife's ectopic pregnancy.The discussion of infertility in the church.Satan's plan of attack.The desire God places on our hearts.Trusting His timing.The heart of God for His Daughters.Links Mentioned in Episode/Find More on Purpose Beyond Motherhood and :Twelve 12 Ministries WebsiteIG Handle: @twelve12ministriesFacebook: @twelve12ministriesEmail: info@twelve12ministries.org Visit the Twelve 12 Ministries ShopVisit Pillar Church Scottsdale's WebsiteListen to The Leader's Cut PodcastThis show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.

In today's insightful conversation, we had the pleasure of speaking with Kristen Adkins, an education consultant and former foster parent deeply entrenched in the foster care system. Kristen's journey is one of immense transitions, highlighting the transformative power of community, compassion, and finding one's purpose.Kristen embarked on her professional journey as a dedicated medical professional, committed to on-call shifts that often stretched into weekends and late nights. However, the demanding schedule led her to grapple with the reality of being away from her family. Driven by a desire for a more balanced life, she pivoted towards education, obtaining her teaching certificate and passionately teaching for four years.As a mother of four children, managing a full-time teaching job became overwhelming. The pivotal moment arrived when two of her adopted children faced challenges within their private school environment. Seeking alternatives, Kristen turned to a friend experienced in homeschooling for guidance. This encounter sparked a life-altering decision to homeschool her children, prompting Kristen to downsize her home to afford the opportunity to stay home and prioritize her family's needs.Transitioning from traditional teaching to homeschooling opened doors for Kristen. She ventured into co-op teaching environments and eventually began conducting portfolio reviews.Today, as an education consultant deeply involved in homeschooling and the foster care system, Kristen Adkins embodies resilience, compassion, and a profound dedication to the holistic well-being of children and families.As we navigate our own transitions, her insights remind us of the immeasurable value in finding our community—a supportive network that propels us forward, nurtures our passions, and helps us evolve into the best versions of ourselves.Episode Highlights:Intro to Kristen Adkins.Kristen's journey through Foster Care, Adoption, & Respite.Homeschooling and the role it played.What Kristen is doing now.Finding your community.More on Kristen: Visit Kristen's Website Here!More on Love Your School/Links Mentioned in Episode:Visit Our Show Notes Page HERE!Kim@loveyourschoolwv.orgLeah@loveyourschoolwv.org www.loveyourschool.orgVisit our Facebook HERE!Visit our Instagram HERE!This show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.

Today's guests on the podcast are none other than Dr. Edith Eva Eger - "Dr. Edie" - and her grandson Jordan Engle. Dr. Azi speaks with them about the courses that they've recently produced together: Unlocking Your Potential, and Forgiveness: A Gift You Give to Yourself. They also speak about Dr. Eger's NYT bestselling books, "The Choice," and "The Gift," as well as her work as a pioneer in the field of trauma healing, and her personal experiences in the Holocaust as a prisoner of Auschwitz. Dr. Eger shares the wisdom of her life and work, which is not to be missed by anyone. As Oprah has said, "I will be forever changed by Dr. Eger's work," and here at Inspired by Purpose, we believe that Dr. Eger's work can inspire, impact, and help anyone and everyone to heal and unlock their potential. Episode Highlights: Intro 00-2:50 About Dr. Eger's Life 3:00-11:30 About Jordan Engle 11:40 - 14:00 Interview with Dr. Eger and Jordan 14:00 - 1:08 1:08: Reflections on the Episode with your host Dr. Azi, how Dr. Eger's work and most recently the courses have impacted her personally, and a special message for you on how to unlock your impact and live inspired by purpose. Personal Takeaways from the Episode and Dr. Eger's work: On Leadership, Courage, Mental Health, and More - with your Host, Dr. Azi Jankovic About our Guests: "Dr. Edith Eger is a sought-after clinical psychologist and lecturer, helping individuals discard their limitations, discover their powers of self-renewal, and achieve things they previously thought unattainable. Using her own past as a Holocaust survivor and thriver as a powerful analogy, she inspires people to tap their full potential and shape their very best destinies. It's a message of healing and personal growth. A message of freedom from selfimposed limitations. A message of CHOICE to move from recovery to discovery and beyond." Jordan Engle "Jordan Engle is a storyteller. His passion for finding powerful stories and helping to bring them to life is his soul's work. In his 20's as an actor and screenwriter Jordan spent 10 years in Los Angeles learning the craft of filmmaking and storytelling. From there his passion for still photography led him into a career taking portraits of actors and professionals. From being Google's preferred headshot photographer to creating portraits of Kevin Hart, Jordan's passion for photography has been a steady source of inspiration. In addition to photography, for the last 5 years Jordan has immersed himself into the Edie-verse as he calls it. As the grandson of Dr. Edith Eger, Jordan has used his storytelling and content creating to support Edie's rise to fame and success as a transformational figure and author. Together Jordan and Edie have recently created two breakthrough online courses, "Unlocking Your Potential" and "Forgiveness : A gift I give myself," both offered through Jordan's company, Soul Search. Next Jordan is co-authoring with Edie her third book, which will be focused on the young adult audience, where Edie takes readers through her youth, and tells her story of her holocaust survival in order to show young readers the lessons they can use in their own life. Jordan has also created the Edith Eger Foundation which will be helping to educate the youth about Edie's story and wisdom."  Learn More about Dr. Edith Eva Eger https://dreditheger.com/ Courses from Dr. Eger and Jordan Engle: https://yoursoulsearch.org/ Connect with Edie on Social: https://www.instagram.com/dr.editheger/ https://www.facebook.com/dreditheger To view the video version of this episode, access transcripts, and stay updated about the podcast: visit www.drazi.co/in Connect with Your Host: www.drazi.co www.customcreatedclips.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/azijankovic/  https://www.instagram.com/dr.azi.jankovic/
