Every media headline says you can’t buy a home nowadays. Your friends say it. Even your brain believes it. But here’s the truth: it’s still possible — if you build the right habits. In this episode, we call out the loop of doomscrolling, lifestyle inflation, and Uber Eats blowouts that keep first home buyers stuck. We break down how your daily choices — how you spend, save, and think — can either fuel your first home dreams or quietly sabotage them. You’ll hear real talk about what it takes to build a deposit, the mindset shifts that make it doable, and why good spending habits matter more than perfect timing. If you’ve been feeling like homeownership is out of reach, this is your reset. You’ll walk away with practical tips, renewed clarity, and the truth: buying your first home in Australia is still possible — if you stop waiting and start building.

Is Perth still a good place to buy? Are Brisbane’s grants helping or hurting buyers? Is Sunbury in Melbourne a smart move – or a big mistake? In this episode, we answer some questions from our Facebook group. We're talking about real risks, tricky choices, and what you need to know before you buy. People often say things like “wait for the right time” or “use grants to get in.” But those tips can backfire. And while grants sound helpful, they can push you into areas that won’t grow in value. In this episode, we explain why timing the market doesn’t work and why grants sometimes lead you to bad buys. We’ll share the kind of practical tips that make a real difference, like how to recognise the warning signs of a risky suburb, what to think about when you’re looking at homes far from the city, and how to check if a grant is actually helping or just tempting you into a bad decision. We also talk through what can go wrong when too many investors buy in one place, why some areas get popular while others don’t, and how to choose a suburb that fits your life, not just your budget. This is about helping you feel steady and sure, instead of overwhelmed. When you know how to filter through the noise, compare your choices clearly, and trust your own judgment, you’ll be way more confident – and way less likely to make a decision you’ll regret. Episode Highlights 00:00 – Introduction 01:47 – Answering your questions: evaluating suburbs and market timing 02:40 – Is it a good time to buy in Perth? 05:46 – Navigating first home buyer grants in Brisbane 11:39 – Considering Sunbury in Melbourne for your first home 14:51 – Is there a best time to buy a villa or townhouse in Sydney? 18:14 – Avoiding risky suburbs for apartments in Brisbane Mentions Episode162 - New House and Land Packages: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly QLD Government - Concessions for homes - Check your eligibility Course Details THE First Home Buyer Course is our Step-By-Step, No BS Guide to Every Stage of The Home Buying Process – It’s the next best thing to having your own buyer’s agent.

This episode is part of Body Relationship Month — our special July series where we're revisiting some of our most-loved episodes to help you heal your relationship with your body. Many of us struggle to overcome society's message that you need to look a certain way to be valued. Adopting these messages (willingly or not) often creates debilitating battles with how we see our bodies.

We end up living day after day with someone (ourselves) we don't accept, love, or appreciate unconditionally. And well… that sucks. But there are steps you can take to embrace your imperfections, accept yourself as-is, and still pursue your health and fitness goals. The result? Peace, freedom, and finally escaping a lifetime sentence in your food and body prison. In this episode — “Embracing Imperfection: How to Love Your Body at Every Stage” — you'll learn:

This week Nicola and Di are back with the third episode of our monthly financial series, Over The Money Fence with Roger Montgomery. This series aims to help you take control of your finances with clarity and confidence. Roger is the Founder and Chairman of Montgomery Investment Management, has over 30 years’ investing experience and is a highly respected financial commentator featuring on various ABC programs, as well as his popular column in The Australian newspaper. He is also the author of best-selling investment guidebook Value.able. In this conversation we chat about how to manage your money wisely at every age and every stage of your life. Roger goes through each generation from Gen Z, to Millennials, to Gen X, to Boomers and what you might need to focus on or consider when it comes to your finances for that stage of your life. Regardless of where you’re at in life, Roger recommends having a wealthing account. Entirely separate to a savings account, this account is where you focus on building wealth. As he suggests, a great financial habit to start is to pay yourself first into this account Roger talks about the benefits of taking some risks when you’re younger, why he thinks spending a lot of money on a wedding isn’t the best financial decision, why starting a side-hustle and being entrepreneurial is a great idea if you’ve got the drive and why paying down your mortgage first can make good financial sense. We also weigh up the pros and cons of investing your money in an investment property versus a private credit fund. Roger gives us solid ways of being able to make those decisions by making sense of and evaluating the true returns you’re getting on any investment you’re making. As always, this episode was full of so much valuable information and we’re so glad to be able to bring you these conversations with Roger where we are learning so much. We hope you are too.

Is getting help from your parents really the golden ticket into the property market or could it actually be setting you up for financial trouble? In this episode, we break down the real risks of the Bank of Mum and Dad, especially for first home buyers who aren’t financially prepared to take on home ownership. We talk about what happens when buyers skip key money lessons; like budgeting, tracking expenses, and preparing for ongoing costs, simply because they’ve had a leg-up from family. The data is sobering: first home buyers who get parental help are three times more likely to default on their loans in the first three years. That stat alone should make you think twice about rushing in. Beyond finances, there are emotional strings and expectations that often come with family support. Whether it’s influence over what you buy or where you live, or unclear repayment terms, these dynamics can lead to stress and conflict if not handled properly. That’s why we share tips on how to approach these conversations with clarity and boundaries. This episode is packed with practical advice to help you make smarter decisions around family support. We explore how to build financial discipline, structure repayment agreements, and use parental help as a tool, not a crutch. If you’re considering accepting help, or already have, don’t miss this honest conversation about the often-overlooked risks of the Bank of Mum and Dad and how to avoid falling into them. Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Introduction 02:51 - BOMAD is now the fifth-largest lender 03:40 - The danger of skipping the financial learning curve 07:18 - Why parental help increases the risk of loan default 08:55 - Building financial habits before borrowing 12:27 - Hidden costs first-time buyers forget 13:26 - How family help can influence buying decisions 15:49 - A smarter way to structure parental help 19:10 - Use parental help to increase your deposit, not your budget 21:24 - Be realistic about interest rate changes 22:11 - How to make the most of a rare privilege Course Details: The First Home Buyer Course is our Step-By-Step, No BS Guide to Every Stage of The Home Buying Process – It's the next best thing to having your own buyer's agent.

Should I buy my forever home now, even if I’m not quite ready for it yet? That’s the question we’re unpacking in this episode. We’ve come across a few first home buyers who are in the rare position of being able to afford more than they need, and it’s worth talking about. Because while the budget might say “forever home,” the lifestyle might be saying, “not just yet.” We talk through the big trade-offs: the costs of upgrading later, the benefits of locking in today’s prices, and the risk of buying something that doesn’t really work for you right now. We’ve seen buyers try to plan five or ten years ahead, and sometimes get it wrong. So we’re sharing the questions you need to ask yourself before making a call: should I buy my forever home if I might not live in it for years? What would future-me want? And will this decision give me more flexibility or less? We also cover rentvesting, tax considerations, and the emotional side of home buying, because let’s face it, excitement and FOMO can be sneaky decision drivers. This episode isn’t about telling you what to do, it’s about helping you think it through properly, with a bit of strategy and some guidance from people who’ve seen it all before. If you’ve been wondering, should I buy my forever home now, this one’s for you. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer but there is a smarter way to figure it out. Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Introduction 02:00 - Defining the “forever home” vs. “first home” mindset 04:10 - Buying now for a future lifestyle: projecting 5 to 10 years ahead 05:30 - Weighing the cost of upgrading later 07:50 - Capital growth and locking in today’s prices 10:00 - The rentvesting alternative 13:10 - Risks of lifestyle misalignment 16:30 - Tax and insurance considerations for rentvesting 18:20 - Emotional vs. strategic buying 20:00 - Why you need a strategic plan and expert advice 21:30 - Questions to ask before buying your forever home early Course Details: The First Home Buyer Course is our Step-By-Step, No BS Guide to Every Stage of The Home Buying Process – It's the next best thing to having your own buyer's agent.

YOU - The Master Entrepreneur - A Guide to True Greatness with Stan Hustad
The world is full of people right now trying to tell you that they have the secret to success. I'm not one of them. No matter how good an idea you might have to remember that nothing works all the time and there's something wrong with everything. But for your thought and consideration let me speakand seek to explain what I have learned about what I call Zone-Based lLving and how being in the right zone in the right time will be very helpful to you as you deal with what is a rather rugged and challenging way of life right now in which most people are quite tired and don't know what to do. Maybe this 15 minutes might be helpful as a start to get back on track and have a sense of energy in the midst of difficult times. And now let's see what the STOSH has to say about the program. Living in the Zones: How I've Learned to Perform, Transform, and Flourish at Every Stage of Life By Stan Hustad If you're going to survive—better yet, thrive—in today's uncertain, noisy, and sometimes nasty world, you need more than a goal or a five-year plan. You need zones. That's right—zone-based living is not just a quirky phrase I came up with; it's a powerful way to understand where you are in life, what your role is, and how to perform at your best, no matter what stage you're in. This week on the program, I dove deep into the idea that living well in today's complex world demands that we know where we are—not just physically or emotionally, but spiritually and professionally too. These five "zones" I've discovered over years of coaching, teaching, performing, and living... well, they're not only helpful—they're essential. So allow me to take you on a little journey through the five zones of life, with just enough wisdom, wit, and warning to maybe get you thinking, “Hey, I need to figure out what zone I'm in—and how to get to the next one.” The Five Zones of Life 1. The Curiosity Zone This is where we start, where we play, and where we ask a thousand questions an hour. Most of us lose it by the time we “grow up,” but here's the big idea: what if everything you thought you knew... was wrong? Could you live with that possibility? The Curiosity Zone isn't just for kids. It's for entrepreneurs, artists, scientists, and anyone who refuses to accept the world as it is. Stay curious, my friends. 2. The Impact Zone Now you're in adulthood. You're responsible. You're no longer just preparing—you're performing. This is where you grow your audience, build influence, and—yes—make a dent in the universe. It's not enough to exist. You've got to matter. And this is where our modern-day Dale Carnegies are born. Or better yet, reborn. 3. The Transformation Zone Congratulations—you've made an impact! But now it's time to do something bigger. Better. Bolder. This zone isn't about tweaking your brand or reorganizing your sock drawer. It's about radical reinvention. You're not changing because you have to. You're transforming because you can. This is the zone where ideas meet courage. 4. The Generosity Zone If you've made it here, you've succeeded. But the question is, who else has? If your success doesn't lift others, you've missed the point. Generosity isn't just about money—it's about time, attention, mentorship, kindness. Civilizations crumble without generosity. So if you're still hoarding, you're still stuck. 5. The Encore Zone Here's where I live. You don't retire—you re-fire. You've got wisdom, experience, and one more show to give. In fact, some of your best work might still be ahead. (Just ask Michelangelo, who created masterpieces into his 80s.) This zone is about finishing well, leaving a legacy, and making sure the world is just a little better because you were here. Memorable Takeaways - “What zone are you in? And what zone do you need to grow into?” - “You're not just in the marketplace. You are the marketplace.” - “Curiosity didn't kill the cat—it built the airplane, wrote the song, and launched the podcast.” - “Success without generosity is just ego with a good haircut.” - “You're on sale every day. Better learn how to sell you.” Remember This - Curiosity keeps you young. - Impact makes you relevant. - Transformation makes you necessary. - Generosity makes you unforgettable. - Encore makes you eternal. A Call to Action So where are you today? Soul tired? A little lost in the cultural noise? Wondering if you've still got it? Let me tell you something: you do. You absolutely do. You just need a map. And that's what the zone model can be—a compass for your calling, your career, and your contribution. If this message resonates with you, reach out. I'm here for coaching, conversation, counsel, or just a cup of encouragement. Let's figure out your zone—and how to get to the next one. And remember: in a world gone sideways, those who live with purpose and perform with love will always rise. All the best and blessings to you. And as always—live well, finish well, and don't forget to flourish. Let's talk: StanEdWittRadio.net
What does it mean to feel invisible—and how do we reclaim our voice when it happens?In this powerful conversation, I welcome back listener favorite Erika Petrelli-Bayh to explore a topic that resonates with so many women: visibility. From the “messy middle” of life—menopause, caregiving, career shifts—to early career anxiety and even the later legacy years, we talk about what causes women to feel unseen, and how to shift the story.Erika shares insights from her visibility workshops, including the emotional and practical tools women of all ages can use to reconnect with themselves, their voices, and their power. We talk about:The silent stories we carry—and how to rewrite themWhy shedding outdated beliefs is key to personal growthSimple practices to increase visibility and confidence at workHow hormones and neurobiology impact leadershipPower poses, positive mantras, and the neuroscience of self-trustWhether you're a seasoned leader, a new manager, or simply someone navigating your own reinvention, this episode is a reminder: You are not alone. And your voice matters—more than ever.
Summary"Sin doesn't play fair”In this powerful Sunday morning message, preached just before the Guam Conference, Pastor Joe Campbell speaks with raw conviction and timeless wisdom about the deadly nature of sin. At 83 years old, with over five decades of pastoring behind him, Pastor Campbell calls out the modern culture that seeks to redefine sin and silence conviction.He shares heart-wrenching stories from his ministry—young lives full of promise destroyed by sin, and families torn apart by compromise. But he also declares the liberating power of confession, repentance, and forsaking sin. From his own dramatic salvation in 1971 to witnessing God's faithfulness through every storm, this message is an altar call for a generation at risk of losing its fear of God.
I used to be terrified of speaking on stage. The fear, the pressure, the what-if-I-fail thoughts all used to paralyze me.

She shares the tools she used to go from rock bottom to sold-out stages, how to expand your comfort zone, and the mindset shifts that help you own the room.
