Podcasts about freedom formula

Hiring is building a business that gives you more freedom instead of making you more dependent on it.  In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, Jason and Sarah Hull break down one of the most expensive mistakes property management business owners make: hiring based solely on what the business appears to need instead of what the owner actually needs. They explain why this common approach leaves entrepreneurs overwhelmed, wearing the wrong hats, and trapped inside businesses they no longer enjoy running.  You'll learn how a simple time study can reveal where your energy, focus, and profitability are being lost, why every new hire should solve both a business problem and an owner problem, and how reallocating your time toward high-value activities creates sustainable growth.

Jason Hull  "The product that you should be selling is not really property management. It should be freedom." Jason Hull Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive Transcript Jason Hull (00:00) We are Jason and Sarah Hull, the founder and CEO and COO of DoorGrow, and we are the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. For over a decade and a half, we have brought innovative strategies and optimization to the property management industry.   At DoorGrow, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses. We want to transform the industry, eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market, and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. Now let's get into the show. All right, so today,   we're talking about freedom. Freedom. All right, we just celebrated the   Fourth of July, Independence Day. It's it's it's called Independence Day, and the reason that they're shifting it to Fourth of July is to get people to be less focused on their independence because that's what it is. It's independence day. Okay. Well yes, so let's recap. The the United States came about because a group of really awesome entrepreneurial people decided that they did not want   to be beholden to Britain and they declared their independence, which was, you know, basically declaring war. And this small little group of colonies decided to go to war with the biggest, most established military in the world at the time. And we won. We we were able to achieve our independence. So okay   Now, why was America able to win? Well, my theory or belief is that f anytime you are moving with the river instead of swimming upstream of freedom, the river of freedom, you have momentum and yeah, at your back. You have the wind in your sails. You are headed in the direction, and   everything moves towards greater freedom.   And I think then you will be more likely to have success if you're moving towards freedom. And so I think the USA is a big macrocosmic sort of example of the microcosmic. And so we're gonna talk about how money flows towards freedom today is kind of the idea. So why do people start businesses, Sarah?   That's like one of the biggest reasons is they go, Hey, I I want to do things my way. I see a need in the marketplace and the way that other people are doing things is maybe it's not good or maybe you think you have, you know, some better ideas. Maybe there's this this need for a product or service that doesn't yet exist.   And they go, hey, I have the freedom and the ability to create this product or service and meet this need in the marketplace. And a lot of times, entrepreneurs, we think that we can do things better than other people can do it. And a lot of times we're right. And that's why businesses start to exist and and grow and expand, is they see a need and they   Fill said need. So we have the the choice really to be able to say, hey, I'm I'm gonna step up and be the one who meets that need. All right. Yeah. So I think if we're going along with this momentum, this river of freedom, and you're headed in that direction, what could be more powerful than starting a business in a nation that values freedom with people?   That value, they were raised celebrating Independence Day every year. They're celebrating freedom. We value freedom. And you're a business owner that values getting more and more freedom and creating freedom. And then you create a business like property management where you are creating freedom for others. You're giving other people freedom from things they don't enjoy dealing with.   Is you all of this can if if aligned creates a massive amount of momentum. It can create a lot of success if you're selling the right thing, the right thing,   and this is what we do at DoorGroup. Our goal is to help business owners get more freedom from doing the day-to-day work, from being the property manager to being more of the business owner, the visionary, the entrepreneur. So, yes, the business owner.   as business owners, we value freedom. Usually we mistakenly think we want more money. But what we really want is what we think money will give us, which is more freedom if we do it the right way. But we make more and more money eventually realizing we have less and less freedom the more money we make because we're doing it the wrong way. And then we're like, why am I even doing this? yeah, I want freedom. I don't just want more money. Because once you get more money, but you have less freedom, you realize this isn't the trade I wanted.   And so we want to make sure we're focused on getting yourself more freedom. You got to build the right business. If you build it wrong, your business can't scale, it can't grow. And you, if you're because you're moving upstream, you're in conflict with freedom. And so, as a business owner, if you start building a business that's giving you less and less freedom, even though you're trying to help others get freedom, you're going to be out of integrity. People are going to feel that. It's going to be harder to sell it. You're going to, you know, to others and convince them to become your client.   And you're going to just experience a massive amount of friction and unconsciously you're going to sabotage.   Once you have more freedom, then you probably also want to give your team more freedom. How do we give our team more freedom?   Consistently shifting them into more of the things that they do enjoy, and by making sure that they can really specialize in what they enjoy and what they're good at. So usually when a business starts, unless there's a lot of resources and capital, businesses typically tend to start with one person, maybe two people, and then that one or   Two people, they end up doing everything. So they they are the entirety of the business. Every role, every task, every department is filled by that person or those, you know, small handful of people. And then as the business grows, then some shifts are able to be made where those people no longer have to handle every single thing because they can bring on the right.   resources and sometimes that might be software, sometimes that might be people, sometimes that might be an AI tool. But they can start to shift some of those responsibilities to other people or tools and that allows them to focus more on the things that they really do enjoy doing and they're they're good at. And the same then kind of trickles downstream to the team.   where the team kind of gets to experience that same thing. Usually when especially your first team member, that team member ends up doing a little bit of multiple pieces of roles. Even to the best of our ability we try. We're like, hey, this is gonna be the role that you do and then the someone's getting roped, either the business owner or that team member is getting roped into all of these other pieces. So to give our team more and more freedom   really allows them to become an expert and a specialist in what they enjoy and in what they're good at. And that usually looks like expansion. Hmm. Okay. And that's a good segue to mentioning our sponsor for today's episode. It is because they give you freedom through ooh software. So ring ring, who's there? Ha, not property managers. Over half don't even answer their phones during   Business hours. Hot leads are calling you directly and they're going straight to missed calls. They're going right to voicemail. So if you're spending time and money on growth, you need to actually capture that growth. And that is where super comes in. Super's AI receptionist sounds lifelike. It answers 24-7 and it's trained on property management. It even makes follow-up calls to leads that you might have missed. Go to higher super.com slash doorgrow.   And stop missing revenue to miss calls. Okay.   Most business owners make the mistake. They think if I control my team more, I'll get better output.   And that's not the case. You that means you need better people. If you have great people, they will lead themselves. If you have better people, and you move them into what feels like more freedom for them, which means they have more autonomy, more ability to make choices and decisions, more time spent doing things that give them fulfillment that they enjoy doing. Like Sarah was talking about, you will get maybe two times the output, maybe three times the output from team members that are in that momentum.   flowing the right way down the down the river towards freedom, right? So we got to get the business owner in alignment. Now we got to get the team in alignment and help expand that freedom to our team members. We do that by helping having our clients give their team members time studies to figure out where their plus and minus signs are energetically, which things do they enjoy, which things are taking away from their joy so that we can hire additional staff, get additional support, get additional technology   That helps take the minus signs off their plate and allows them to spend more time in the plus signs, which is the freedom zone, right? And then also our businesses can't exist if we aren't benefiting our clients. And so property management is about really the product that you should be selling is not really property management. It should be freedom. You're giving your clients freedom from their rental property. But a lot of property management management business owners mess this up. How do they mess this up?   Because they really just involve their clients and everything. They instead of being decisive and being the one who's the leader and in control, they will just kind of defer to the property owner. Or maybe they're not deferring completely, but they're just involving that property owner. Hey Bob, what do you think about this kind of flooring?   We have to do the floors. Do you do you want do you want carpet or do you want L V P? And he's like, I don't know. Like now I have to think about that.   you take ownership, control, you dominate the situation, you lead. They can   relax and let go of that stuff, then you're actually doing the job of a property manager. You are giving them freedom from the burden of having to stress or worry about or to manage anybody. They should not be managing the manager to manage their property. Right? That's not freedom for them. It's freedom from a bad property management situation, maybe if you're a mediocre manager, but if you're a great property manager,   most clients, most investors will pay more to have a really good property manager once they've experienced one where they're hands off and not having to stress and be involved and micromanage and overlook, look over your shoulder and see where you're spending their money because they don't trust you. So trust creates freedom. If your team trusts you,   They will follow you. You'll be creating more freedom. If your clients trust your team and you, that will give them more freedom. Okay, now let's take a look at markets. Markets and and and businesses, money tends to flow where there is more freedom. That's where businesses thrive. USA is a market where a lot of money thrives. but there's areas in the US where money tends to flow and to thrive.   you want to make sure like if you are you wanna maximize freedom, notice that money is always moving towards where there's greatest greatest the greatest autonomy, the greatest ability to make decisions and to choose, where there's less government involvement, less government control, more ability for people to make choices. And I really believe the power of freedom is also in that there is also this this this idea that   The law is this universal principle, the law of dominating good. And the law of dominating good is I believe that good generally wins in almost every situation, that the majority of people will choose the good. And roughly people will say maybe about a third will choose the wrong path, and two thirds will choose the right path, the right. So there's generally a strong majority that will choose good when they have good information.   So, how do people control people and get them to do things that they want them to do that may be out of alignment with their own freedom? They have to control the information. They have to manipulate. They have to lie. They have to control the media. And a lot of people are waking up realizing, hey, we've been lied to by the media. Voting we're seeing in California right now is like largely been manipulated and is fake. And so all this stuff's been getting exposed. So the more we align with freedom,   The more we're gonna win in the long run. So don't play the short game of trying to manipulate, steal, be unethical, whatever, to get business, because in the long run, that doesn't play out well. It doesn't work. You need to be on the side of freedom. Freedom is what wins. Dictatorships are not gonna last, right? That's true in your own business. That's true in your market. That's true in your state. That's true in your nation.   Everything good flows towards where there is the greatest ability for people to choose freedom and when people are good and they choose the right things. And so I believe you give people on your you find the best people on your team, you find the best clients, you help educate them the best, and then you are constantly going to be moving in alignment with freedom. And that's gonna help you thrive. So how can DoorGrow help people with   Freedom, Sarah. I think we're great at helping clients get freedom from the burden of their property management business. That's kind of one of the things that we specialize in because a lot of times when people start a business they do so with the intention of creating more freedom for themselves. Yeah. And they might even think, I you know, I don't want a nine to five job and I don't think I can   You know, be locked in an office all day or, you know, like I glued to my desk or my phone or or my computer. So what I'll do is I'll create this business and I'll start this business. And sometimes unless you have a really great system in place, y you you get freedom from the nine to five, but sometimes you build a different cage for yourself, which is sometimes like a seven AM to   eight PM and then you get a seven to eight and you didn't really expect that. So there's certain shifts in your business and with your team and with your clients and with your structure and your systems and your software and your processes that you that's I think one of the great things about running a business is you get to choose what you do and how you do it and who you work with and who's on your team.   So one of the things that we're really good at helping clients with is restructuring things. Or if you're newer and starting out, structuring things the right way right from the beginning so that you don't end up hoping for freedom but ending up with this cage and prison that you've built yourself that traps you in a   sixteen hour work day.   all right. So if you're looking for freedom from the struggle, you're you're a smaller company, you're trying to figure out how do we just get more doors? And you want freedom from   manipulative marketers that are trying to sell you coldly digital marketing. You want freedom from wasting money on digital marketing, then we have our growth accelerator program that is designed to help you figure out the right strategies to grow and do it for way less money. So if you're wanting freedom from doing the sales yourself, you don't want to even focus on that. You want someone else to add the doors for you. We have our new program, the Door Machine.   We had the doors, you manage them. You want to get freedom and gradually move yourself out of having to be involved in the front end of the business of bringing in new business. Because, you know, doing sales to you does not feel like freedom. You just hate doing that piece. Some of you love it. I don't want to take that away from you, but it's some of and so gross accelerator. We'll teach you how to do it if you want to do it. If you don't like doing that piece, let's get you out of it. If you want freedom from operations.   A lot of you in the two to four hundred door range get trapped here. And you just you're mired in answering everybody's questions on your team, and you're you're not really the entrepreneur anymore. You're still somehow doing every job in the business. You want freedom from property management itself. That's our super system. Maybe you want freedom from both. The super system is included, people in the door machine as well. You get access to that. But you you're wanting to you're wanting freedom.   In your property management business. There's this ascension of going from doing all the work initially in the beginning to building a team to getting out of the different pieces and getting more and more freedom means doing more, doing less things, but doing more of those less things. And it's the ones you enjoy. It's the ones you love doing. That's really what freedom feels like is that you get to spend your day doing stuff that you love doing. Then you don't need to try and escape your business anymore because you're   You're focused on the pieces that really give you fulfillment and freedom. And that's our goal at Dorgros to help you find some freedom. So let's stack all these different levels of freedom, all the way down from the grand old United States. We're grateful to be part of freedom and focus on where we can layer freedom at every level down to to getting ourselves the maximum level of freedom, our team, our clients, the business, and watch the money flow.   So much easier when you're in alignment and not in conflict with how I believe the world was designed. It was designed for choice and for freedom and autonomy. And we would love to help you get there. All right.

You can spend 15 years buying property, building equity, paying down debt and doing all the things that look financially responsible, yet still be no closer to buying back your time. That’s the danger of disconnected investing. In this solo episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin brings together the critical pieces investors often consider separately: the life you actually want, the income that life will require, when you want the freedom to live it, what your current financial position can support, and exactly what job your next property needs to do. Using the example of Michael and Jessica, Bushy shows how an aspirational $200,000 annual lifestyle income can translate into a $4 million future nest egg, a daunting $3.89 million future shortfall — and then, importantly, a much more practical $1.78 million Freedom Number in today’s terms. But this isn’t about convincing you that you suddenly need to rush out and build a multimillion-dollar portfolio. It’s about working backwards from the destination and identifying the next sensible move. For Michael and Jessica, despite the longer-term numbers potentially pointing towards two or three properties, their current capacity suggests a working purchase ceiling of around $750,000, and one property as the next move. And that property still needs to pass the right tests. Because a good property can be a bad investment for you if it doesn’t match your purpose, capacity or ability to comfortably hold it. Bushy also compares two hypothetical $750,000 investments to demonstrate just how different the holding experience can be. In the examples explored, an established property could require around $705 a week to hold, compared with approximately $217 a week for a qualifying new build — around 69% less in year one. That doesn’t automatically make one better than the other. It means the numbers, the growth evidence and the job the property needs to perform all have to connect. In this episode you’ll discover: Why owning investment property doesn’t automatically mean you’re creating freedom The five numbers that can turn a vague financial future into something measurable The difference between your future GAP and your Freedom Number today Why achieving freedom before super access generally requires accessible assets outside super Why borrowing capacity and usable equity are different, and why neither alone tells you what you should spend How to turn a much larger long-term wealth target into one practical next property decision Why two properties at the same purchase price can have dramatically different holding costs When growth should be the priority, and why cash flow can become increasingly important later How Infrastructure, Industry, Incomes, Population, Position and Property help test the growth case The five questions every potential investment property should pass before you say yes Why your strategy needs to be recalculated when your life, finances or goals materially change You don’t need to solve the next 20 years today. But you do need to know what you’re trying to build, what your current position can safely support and what your next investment is actually being employed to achieve. Start with the numbers. Test the property against its job. Then make the next move — not every move. Because real strategy isn’t collecting tactics or properties. It’s diagnosing what’s stopping you, choosing the right pathway, aligning your actions and adjusting as life changes. FREE PROPERTY INVESTOR’S FIELD GUIDE How Should I Invest In Property Now?

What if what you call self-sabotage is really your nervous system doing what it learned to keep you safe? In episode 272 of Joy Found Here, somatic healing practitioner Lori Montry explains why mindset and willpower alone can't create lasting change, and why the body must be part of the process. Drawing on her own journey out of high-achieving overwhelm, she introduces her Freedom Formula and makes the case that real transformation starts with safety, not discipline.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(00:12) Welcome to Joy Found Here and Introducing Lori Montry(05:12) From Harvard Law to Burnout: Lori's Early Adaptations(09:29) What Somatic Coaching Really Means(16:36) Naming Self-Sabotage in Real Life(19:11) The Adapted Self vs. The Expansive Self(25:06) Inside the Book: You're Not the Problem(28:28) Building Safety Through Small Daily Practices(38:48) The Freedom Formula: Three Phases of Change(44:00) Trusting the Body and Surrendering Control(47:28) Where to Find Lori and Get the BookLori Montry is a somatic healing practitioner and author of You're Not the Problem: End the Overwhelm, Restore Energy, and Make Progress that Lasts. She's also the creator of the Freedom Formula, a nervous-system-based framework that helps people move out of survival mode and into lives that reflect who they are. Before this work, Lori earned her law degree from Harvard Law School and spent years in high-achievement environments that looked successful from the outside while she privately struggled with chronic stress, emotional eating, and anxiety. Her approach blends nervous system science, somatic practices, and mindset work to help people see their patterns as adaptations that once kept them safe, not personal brokenness.In this episode, Lori Montry explains why lasting change requires working with the body and nervous system, not just the mind, since old stress patterns get stored physically and outlast talk therapy or willpower alone. She introduces the "adapted self" versus the "expansive self," framing self-sabotage as a protective pattern rather than a failing, and describes building safety with these parts instead of fighting them. Lori also outlines her three-phase Freedom Formula — nervous-system safety, uncovering authentic identity, and building an aligned life — emphasizing small, consistent practices over big overhauls, and shares how her reading circle community helps readers actually integrate the book's ideas.Connect with Lori Montry: WebsiteLinkedInInstagramFacebookYouTubeThe Nervous System Self-Discovery QuizBook: Lori Montry - You're Not the ProblemLet's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

New property can offer compelling advantages for investors, but “new” doesn’t automatically mean “better”. As Australian property investors reassess their options in the post-Budget environment, eligible new residential property is attracting increasing attention thanks to potential tax, depreciation, maintenance and cash-flow benefits. But those benefits only matter if the underlying investment stacks up. This week on Get Invested, Bushy Martin is joined by two property investment specialists from Adviseable, founder Kate Hill and new-build expert Alex Dutt, to cut through the simplistic new-versus-established debate and examine what makes a quality new-build investment actually work. Kate is a Licensed Buyer’s Agent, Qualified Property Investment Adviser (QPIA), experienced property investor and co-author of the award-winning book The Female Investor. She brings the strategy, location, demand and asset-selection lens to the conversation. Alex has been investing in property since 2004 and specialises in the new-build and turnkey construction process, helping investors navigate everything from sites, builders and contracts to specifications, costs, finance sequencing, inspections and handover. Together, they explain why investors need to forget the word “new” initially and first ask whether they would still want to own the property based on its location, demand, scarcity and long-term owner-occupier appeal. Because tax benefits, depreciation and a shiny new kitchen cannot rescue a poor investment. They also unpack one of the most misunderstood parts of new-build investing: the difference between a marketed “package price” and the true tenant-ready cost. Bushy, Kate and Alex explore the risks that can emerge between buying the land and collecting the first rent, including construction delays, variations, builder issues, valuation gaps, finance complications and overlooked inclusions, and how the right process, buffers and independent specialists can help manage them. The message isn’t that new property is superior to established property, or vice versa. It’s that superiority needs to be earned by evidence. In this episode you’ll discover: Why investment quality should always come before “newness” How to compare quality new builds with quality established property Why scarcity, location and owner-occupier appeal remain critical What “turnkey” should really mean for an investor Why the advertised package price may not be the true cost How to calculate the tenant-ready, all-in investment cost The construction, builder and valuation risks investors need to understand Why construction finance requires different planning and sequencing The importance of contingency buffers before you start building Why independent inspections and separately accountable advisers matter How Adviseable approaches new builds from strategy and location first, rather than starting with available stock Where depreciation, stamp-duty savings, warranties, lower maintenance and tenant appeal can strengthen the investment case How to decide whether a new build genuinely deserves a place in your long-term wealth strategy For the right investor, in the right location, at the right price and with the right team, a quality new build can be a powerful post-Budget investment pathway. But the brochure doesn’t get to decide that. The evidence does. Connect with Adviseable here: adviseable.com.au FREE PROPERTY INVESTOR’S FIELD GUIDE How Should I Invest In Property Now?

Everyone wants to know the best investment. They're asking the wrong question. In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin moves deeper into the Approach stage of his Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock to challenge one of the biggest myths in investing: that there's a single asset class that wins every time. Whether it's property, shares, business, super or alternatives, the real question isn't "Which investment is best?" It's "What job does this investment need to perform for my life—and can I realistically own it?" Bushy introduces a simple roadworthy test for every investment using his G.E.A.R.S.E.T., S.N.I.F.F. and BUSH-IDO frameworks. Together, they help you assess not just the investment itself, but whether it genuinely fits your finances, lifestyle, knowledge, risk tolerance and long-term goals. You'll also discover why borrowing capacity isn't holding capacity, why time is one of the most overlooked investment costs, and why the best investment on paper can still be the wrong investment for you. This episode also sets the scene for next week's conversation with Kate Hill and Alex Dutt, where Bushy applies this same framework to turnkey new-build property investing. In this episode you'll discover: Why there is no universally "best" investment—only the right investment for your goals and stage of life. Why destination comes before vehicle, and fit comes before fashion. The three-part roadworthy test every investment should pass before you commit. Why bank approval is not the same as true affordability. The hidden cost that catches more investors than interest rates or tax. Why tax should support a sound investment—not become the reason for making one. Why "Specify before you diversify" is one of the smartest investing principles you'll ever apply. How to build an investment strategy that evolves as your life evolves. "You don't invest in what wins the argument. You invest in what wins your freedom." Ready to build wealth with a proven, step-by-step framework? Explore Bushy's complete Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Program and discover how to create an investment strategy that's designed around your life, not someone else's. FREE PROPERTY INVESTOR’S FIELD GUIDE How Should I Invest In Property Now?

Is established residential property really dead, or are investors burying one of Australia's greatest long-term wealth builders far too early? Since the Federal Budget, headlines have declared the end of established residential property. Negative gearing changes, higher holding costs and softer sentiment have left many investors wondering whether they should abandon existing homes altogether in favour of new builds, commercial property or other alternatives. In this special interruption episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin cuts through the noise to answer one of the biggest questions facing Australian investors right now. While the rules have changed, Bushy explains why quality established residential property remains one of the strongest long-term capital growth assets available - provided you buy well, structure wisely and can comfortably hold through the cycles. Rather than chasing tax incentives or reacting to fear, Bushy shares the practical frameworks professional investors use to separate temporary market "weather" from long-term investment "climate". He explains why today's environment rewards disciplined investors, why holding capacity has become the new superpower, and why the real casualty isn't established property - it's lazy investing. In this episode, you'll discover: Why existing residential property is harder to hold, but far from dead. The critical difference between short-term market "weather" and long-term investment "climate". Why tax benefits should support a great investment, never rescue a poor one. How the "two-buyer safety net" gives quality residential property a unique long-term advantage. What Bushy calls the "policy discount" and why periods of uncertainty can create opportunity. Why buffers, cash flow and holdability now matter more than maximum borrowing power. The difference between quality regional markets and speculative regional investing. When converting your former family home into an investment property may be worth considering. Bushy's simple "Pulse Test" to help assess whether an investment can truly build long-term wealth. If you've been questioning whether established residential property still deserves a place in your investment strategy, this episode will give you a calm, evidence-based framework for making better decisions in a rapidly changing market. For a deeper comparison of today's investment options, including existing property, new builds, commercial property, ETFs, super and more, download Bushy's free field guide, How Should I Invest in Property Now? Whether you're buying your first investment property or reshaping an existing portfolio, this episode is a timely reminder that successful investing has never been about chasing headlines, it's about buying quality assets you can confidently hold for the long term. Listen now and discover why the funeral is for lazy investing, not quality established residential property. FREE PROPERTY INVESTOR’S FIELD GUIDE How Should I Invest In Property Now?

Why do so many smart, high-income Australians still feel financially stretched despite earning more than ever? In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin is joined by former engineer, finance professional and Magnetic Money creator Miriam Castilla to explore the hidden behaviours that ultimately determine whether an investment strategy succeeds or fails. As Bushy’s Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock moves from E for Examine into A for Approach, the focus shifts away from assets, lending and locations, and onto the one factor every investor takes with them into every decision: themselves. Miriam explains why more money doesn’t solve financial problems, it simply magnifies the habits already there. Together, she and Bushy unpack the three Money Habit Archetypes—Overextender, Spender and Accumulator—and reveal how each can quietly shape the way we save, borrow, invest and respond when life inevitably gets messy. The conversation also challenges one of the biggest misconceptions in property investing: that borrowing capacity equals investing capacity. While a lender can calculate what you can borrow, only you can determine whether you have the behavioural capacity to stick to the plan, protect your buffers and hold quality assets through uncertainty. You’ll discover why emotional regulation is one of the most overlooked investing skills, how unconscious money stories influence everyday decisions, why every dollar needs a defined purpose, and how Miriam’s practical five-minute weekly money rhythm creates a financial system that’s both sustainable and enjoyable. If you’re preparing to invest, or wondering why you’ve struggled to stay consistent in the past, this episode lays the behavioural foundation for a strategy you can actually live. In this episode you’ll learn: Why more money amplifies existing financial behaviours rather than fixing them. The three Money Habit Archetypes—and how to recognise your own. The difference between borrowing capacity and behavioural capacity. Why emotional decisions quietly derail long-term wealth creation. How to give every dollar a clear job and build effective money buckets. Why focusing on one financial priority creates greater progress than chasing several at once. Miriam’s simple five-minute weekly money rhythm for staying on track. Why sustainable wealth is built through consistent systems, not willpower. This episode marks the beginning of the Approach stage of Bushy’s Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock, reminding us that before you choose the property, lender or strategy, you need to understand the person who will execute it. Because your strategy will never outperform the person behind it.

Before you buy your next investment property, ask yourself one question: Can I safely hold it? In Part 2 of the Examination stage finale of Bushy Martin’s Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock, Bushy completes the B.E.A.R. Facts by tackling the two factors that ultimately determine whether an investment becomes a wealth builder—or a financial burden: Affordability and Risk. Many investors spend their time chasing hotspots, borrowing limits and tax advantages, yet overlook the simple reality that getting into property is only the wedding photo—holding it is the marriage. Against the backdrop of Australia’s new post-Budget property tax changes, Bushy explains why sustainable investing has become more important than ever. Rather than reacting to headlines about negative gearing, capital gains tax or SMSF borrowing restrictions, successful investors focus on building strategies that can withstand interest rate rises, unexpected expenses, policy changes and life’s inevitable surprises. This episode also brings together the complete Property Purchase Price Power framework, helping listeners understand why buying power isn’t simply what the bank will lend, but what you can comfortably fund, protect and hold over the long term. Bushy also unpacks four of the biggest traps that quietly derail investors, and explains why today’s changing investment landscape doesn’t eliminate opportunity—it simply demands smarter planning, stronger buffers and better decision-making. In this episode you’ll discover: Why holding a property matters far more than simply buying one The difference between bank affordability and lifestyle affordability Why Affordability and Risk complete the B.E.A.R. Facts How to calculate your true Property Purchase Price Power The four investor traps that quietly undermine long-term wealth Why today’s tax and policy changes require better planning—not panic How to think about buffers, cash flow and sustainable portfolio growth Why successful investors manage risk instead of trying to eliminate it How the Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock provides a proven roadmap for building lasting wealth With the Examination stage now complete, Bushy is ready to move into the next stage of the Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock: Approach—where strategy begins to turn into action. If you’re serious about building wealth through property, this episode will help you stop asking what you can buy, and start focusing on what you can successfully hold for the long term.

Before you choose your next investment property, you need to know what you can actually afford to buy. In Part 1 of the two-part finale to the Examination stage of Bushy Martin’s Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock, Bushy tackles one of the biggest misconceptions in property investing: confusing borrowing capacity with buying power. Too many Australians start by asking “Where should I buy?” when the smarter first question is “What can I actually do?” Following the recent Federal Budget changes and ongoing uncertainty around negative gearing, capital gains tax, borrowing rules and investment structures, many investors are questioning whether they can still build wealth through property. Bushy explains why the answer starts with diagnosis—not property selection. This episode introduces the first two B.E.A.R. Facts that determine your real Property Purchase Price Power: Borrowings and Equity. You’ll learn why the bank’s biggest approval isn’t necessarily your smartest decision, why equity isn’t the same as wealth, and how understanding your true financial position creates a far stronger foundation for long-term investing. Whether you’re buying your first investment, looking to expand your portfolio, or simply trying to make sense of your options in today’s changing market, this episode will help you stop guessing and start making strategic decisions. In this episode you’ll discover: Why Examination is the most overlooked stage of successful property investing The difference between borrowing capacity and true buying power Why the bank’s biggest “yes” isn’t always your best strategy The Capacity Illusion that catches so many investors out Why equity is only valuable if it’s usable, structured and protected How to assess whether your equity is strategic or simply sitting on paper The first two B.E.A.R. Facts: Borrowings and Equity Why diagnosis must come before property selection How the Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock helps investors build wealth in the right order This is Part 1 of a two-part series. In the next episode, Bushy completes the B.E.A.R. Facts by exploring Affordability, Risk, and the crucial concept of Property Purchase Price Power—bringing together everything you need before choosing your next investment.

Australian property investors have been warned to brace for a market crash, but the numbers tell a very different story. Since the Federal Budget, investors have been bombarded with warnings about higher taxes, reduced incentives, slowing growth and the supposed end of Australia’s property boom. But when you strip away the fear, the politics and the clickbait, does the evidence actually support the doom-and-gloom narrative? In this special Get Invested solo episode, Bushy Martin cuts through the crash talk, Budget tax fog and market noise to show why quality residential property still deserves its place as one of Australia’s most powerful long-term wealth-building engines. Drawing together the key lessons from his recent post-Budget Property PhD Trilogy, Bushy explores why a short-term confidence correction is not the same thing as a long-term market collapse. He unpacks the extraordinary post-COVID growth surge, why a return to more sustainable growth rates was always inevitable, and the powerful fundamentals that continue to support quality residential property over the long term. Bushy also challenges one of the biggest misconceptions in investing: that the asset with the lowest tax rate automatically produces the best financial outcome. Through his practical Net Nest Egg Ladder, he compares owner-occupied housing, ETFs, shares, commercial property, SMSF property, grandfathered residential property, future established residential property and qualifying new builds to reveal what ultimately matters most — the amount of usable wealth and financial freedom you create at the end of the journey. Along the way, you’ll learn why scarcity remains one of property’s greatest strengths, how household formation continues to drive demand, why holding costs matter less than most investors think, and why the next phase of the market may favour calm, prepared and strategic investors rather than FOMO-driven crowds. If you’ve been wondering whether property still deserves a place in your wealth-building plan, this episode will help you separate the headlines from reality and refocus on the fundamentals that have created wealth for generations of Australians. In this episode you’ll discover: • Why the current property “crash” narrative doesn’t match the underlying fundamentals.• What the post-COVID property boom taught us about sustainable long-term growth.• The critical difference between a confidence correction and a market collapse.• Why Australia’s housing shortage remains a powerful long-term driver.• How an additional $150-$200 per week can protect and accelerate wealth creation.• The role of your investment war chest in navigating uncertain markets.• Why the lowest tax rate doesn’t always create the biggest net nest egg.• How residential property compares against ETFs, shares, commercial property and SMSF investing.• Why “property investing isn’t dead — lazy investing is.”• The practical actions investors should be taking right now. FREE PROPERTY INVESTOR’S FIELD GUIDE This episode also serves as a preview of Bushy’s new ebook: How Should I Invest In Property Now?

You're trying to recover. The whole world seems to be on a shot, shrinking on purpose, celebrating it loudly. And somewhere underneath all of that, a quieter question keeps surfacing in you: is what I'm doing to my body actually hurting me? That question is the whole episode. If you've been afraid to ask it out loud — this one's for you. In this one, Lindsey opens up about the moment "just trying to be healthy" stopped serving her life and started running it, what restriction quietly takes that no scale can show, and the truth she wants you to hold onto in a culture that keeps telling you to make yourself smaller. This isn't a meal plan. It's not a fear list. It's an honest word, woman to woman, for the one who's wondering if she's okay. What this episode is really about How "wellness" can quietly become the cage The cultural moment we're in — GLP-1s, shrinking-culture, and what it's like to try to recover in the middle of it The real, honest answer to "is this hurting me?" — without giving the disorder one more thing to monitor What restriction takes that no one talks about: not what you see in the mirror, but what makes you you Why your wondering is the wisest part of you The truth that you were chosen to be free — right now, as you are A few lines from the episode "A lot of us didn't fall into this through vanity. We fell in through wellness." "You're not losing what you see in the mirror. You're losing what makes you you." "If that question is in you at all — listen to it. That's not fear talking. That's the wisest part of you, the part that's still on your side." "Health was never the number. It never was." "You can feel the storm and not be the storm." "You were chosen to be free. Not free once you fix it. Free right now, as you are, in the middle of the struggle."

A lending decision that takes five minutes can shape your financial future for the next 30 years. In Part 2 of Bushy Martin’s conversation with KnowHow Property Finance Strategist Sharyn Burgess, the focus shifts from financial reality to financial capability — examining the practical borrowing decisions that ultimately determine how much wealth you can build. Most investors spend enormous amounts of time researching suburbs, properties and interest rates, yet many never fully understand the borrowing structures, lending strategies and support systems that sit behind successful property portfolios. Sharyn reveals why emotional attachment is one of the most costly mistakes borrowers make, how borrowing capacity can vary dramatically between lenders, why the cheapest rate isn’t always the best outcome, and why property investing is rarely a solo pursuit. The conversation also highlights an often-overlooked reality: a loan is not just a financial product. The right lending strategy can expand your purchasing power, improve flexibility and create opportunities that may otherwise never exist. As Bushy and Sharyn continue navigating the EXAMINE stage of the Property WEALTH Clock, this episode provides a practical roadmap for turning financial awareness into informed action. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why emotional attachment to a property, suburb or outcome can lead investors into poor financial decisions • The critical difference between choosing a lender and choosing a lending strategy • Why borrowing capacity can vary significantly between lenders for the exact same borrower • How greater borrowing reach can create vastly different long-term wealth outcomes • The role a quality broker plays beyond simply securing a loan • Why property investing works best when supported by a trusted team of specialists • The hidden opportunities that can emerge when lending policies change over time • Why a previous lending rejection should never automatically be treated as a permanent no • How ongoing reviews can uncover new opportunities as your circumstances evolve • The practical steps investors can take to strengthen their borrowing position before their next purchase Why this matters Many investors believe success comes down to finding the right property. But before you can buy the right property, you need the right borrowing structure, the right lending strategy and the right team around you. As Sharyn explains, two investors with identical incomes and financial profiles can end up with very different outcomes simply because one receives better lending advice than the other. The result is that borrowing decisions don’t just determine what you can buy today — they often influence how much wealth you can create tomorrow. If you’re serious about building long-term financial freedom through property, understanding your borrowing power may be just as important as understanding the property market itself. Listen now and discover why the smartest property investors treat lending as a strategic wealth-building tool, not simply a transaction. Bushy's new ebook: How Should I Invest In Property Now?

As borrowing power tightens and more Australians find themselves financially stretched despite earning good incomes, property finance architect and broker Sharyn Burgess says the real issue for many aspiring property investors is not property itself, it is the financial structure sitting underneath it. In this rolled gold revisit, Bushy returns to the PROPERTY WEALTH Clock and the critical E Stage — EXAMINE — where the focus shifts from aspiration and awareness to financial reality. Because before people can build meaningful wealth through property, they first need to honestly examine the foundations they are building from. Sharyn explains why a home loan is only the tip of the iceberg, and why finance should never be treated as a purely mechanical transaction. The real role of strategic finance, she argues, is helping people improve their position, create flexibility and change the trajectory of their lives over time. It is a perspective shaped not only by decades in banking and finance, but also by her own personal journey through business ownership, motherhood, divorce, hearing loss and rebuilding financially and emotionally after major life disruption. What emerges is far more than a conversation about lending and borrowing capacity. Bushy and Sharyn unpack the emotional side of money, the hidden financial habits that quietly restrict future opportunity, and the reality that most wealth journeys are messy, imperfect and rarely linear. That honesty gives the episode real weight, particularly for listeners who feel behind financially or trapped by previous decisions. One of the strongest concepts in the conversation is Sharyn’s definition of financial freedom as “choice time” — the ability to create enough financial flexibility to choose how you want to live, work and spend your life, rather than simply reacting to pressure and circumstance. The timing of this episode also matters within the broader PROPERTY WEALTH Clock framework. The recent Aaron Christie-David episodes focused on awareness, behaviour and decision-making patterns. This conversation takes the next step by examining the financial reality underneath those behaviours, helping listeners identify the gaps between where they are today and the future they are trying to create. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why most people misunderstand the true role of finance The hidden financial gaps that quietly limit wealth creation Why borrowing power shapes far more than property decisions How life setbacks can become major financial turning points Why property journeys are rarely smooth or predictable The emotional impact of financial stress and rebuilding How better financial structure creates more future choices Why resilience matters just as much as financial intelligence The meaning behind “choice time” and true financial freedom Why honest financial examination is the essential starting point for wealth Take the next step with Bushy Personal Solutions Session Get clarity and personalised guidance: Book now Property W.E.A.L.T.H Program - live now!

Have questions or need help? 

As Australia’s post-Budget property debate shifts from fear to decision-making, Bushy Martin tackles the question now dominating investor conversations: what should you actually buy? After weeks of headlines about negative gearing, CGT changes and the “death” of property investing, this episode cuts through the noise and reframes the conversation around what really matters — building the strongest usable net nest egg, not simply chasing the lowest tax bill. Because the Budget hasn’t killed property investing, it has simply exposed weak investing. In this final instalment of Bushy’s special post-Budget series, the conversation moves beyond policy panic and toward practical strategy. This is not another dense tax discussion. It is a real-world decision filter for investors trying to work out where to put their money in a changing market. Bushy compares the major investment pathways now fighting for investor attention — established residential property, qualifying new builds, PPOR strategies, rentvesting, SMSFs, commercial property, ETFs, shares and speculative assets — through one consistent lens: What genuinely builds sustainable freedom? Along the way, he dismantles one of the biggest traps investors fall into during periods of change: confusing tax efficiency with wealth creation. Because tax is not the meal, it’s the seasoning. Bushy explains why established residential property is becoming harder to hold but is far from dead, why new builds may receive better treatment without automatically becoming better investments, and why investors chasing the latest “tax-effective” strategy risk creating long-term wealth problems instead of solving them. He also dives into the realities many Australians are now wrestling with:Is the PPOR really the best investment?Does rentvesting still work?Are SMSFs and commercial property genuine opportunities or simply the latest spruiker pivot?Can shares and ETFs realistically compete with leveraged property investing for mainstream Australians? At the centre of the episode is Bushy’s evergreen decision-making framework: B.E.S.T. N.E.S.T. A practical investing filter designed to help Australians assess any opportunity, regardless of asset class, through the lens of holdability, sustainability, flexibility and real-life usability. Because the real goal is not building the lowest tax bill, it is building the strongest life.

What happens when the rules change after you’ve already bought the property? In this practical follow-up to last week’s blockbuster Federal Budget deep dive, Bushy shifts from policy headlines to real-world investor decisions, unpacking what the new tax landscape could mean for the properties Australians already own, and the choices many investors may now be forced to confront. From long-held portfolios and highly geared COVID-era purchases, to discretionary trusts, refinance pressure and the growing divide between strategic new builds and risky investor stock, Bushy maps out the new “fault lines” emerging beneath the market — using simple dollar examples and real-world scenarios to cut through the tax fog. This isn’t a doom-and-gloom panic episode. It’s a strategic field guide for investors trying to answer one question: What should I do next? Whether you’re considering holding, selling, restructuring, refinancing or simply reassessing your position, this episode helps you understand where you stand, what’s potentially changing, and how to avoid making emotional decisions based on headlines alone. Bushy explains: Why many existing investors are technically “protected” but still exposed How the new post-2027 CGT framework could materially change after-tax outcomes Why negative gearing grandfathering may not solve holding-cost pressure The emerging risk of becoming a “mortgage captive” Why some new builds may become strategically valuable, while others become marketing traps The major sleeper issue facing discretionary trust investors Why the right response now is not panic… but precision If last week’s episode explained the Budget changes, this episode explains what they could mean for your portfolio, your freedom and your next move.

Send us Fan MailToday's guest is Lori Montry — somatic healing practitioner, author of You're Not the Problem, and creator of The Freedom Formula, a nervous system-based roadmap for sustainable behavior change. Lori helps people who feel stuck in stress, overwhelm, or self-sabotage understand the survival patterns driving their choices so they can build the safety, capacity, and clarity needed to take aligned action in every area of their lives.There is so much resonance in this conversation — between Lori's work and Ayurveda, between the Freedom Formula and what we talk about every week on this podcast. I think you're going to feel it too.What we cover:Why Lori uses the word adaptation instead of problem, habit, or failure — and why that single reframe changes everything about how we relate to ourselves and our patternsThe most common adaptation she sees in women: I'm not enough — and the Mississippi River of coping mechanisms, people-pleasing, overachieving, and self-sabotage that flows from itWhat is actually happening at the nervous system level when you know what to do and still don't do it — and why it has nothing to do with willpowerThe three things the nervous system needs before behavior change is even possible: safety, capacity, and energy — and why trying to change without these in place is like expecting a seed to bloom in a dark closet with no waterWhy nervous system tools sometimes make things worse — and what to do insteadThe difference between managing stress and befriending it — and why safety lives in the body, not in the mindThe resonance between Lori's framework and Ayurveda — being situated in the self, the sattvic state, and why regulated nervous systems see reality more clearlyLori's vision of reaching 50 million people with the message that they are not the problem — and why a more somatic-literate world is one of the most urgent things we need right nowConnect with Laurie:Website: www.LoriMontry.com Youtube: Lori Montry -Somatic Healing Practitioner - YouTubeFacebook:  www.facebook.com/LoriMontryInstagram: Instagram Email List : https://www.lorimontry.com/book-introResources:Free Masterclass:  The Alchemy of the Perimenopause PortalAyurvedic Dosha Quick Reference GuideAbhyanga Self Massage GuideWeekend Nervous System ResetNourished For Resilience Workbook Find me at www.nourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

UNPACKING THE BUDGET: The 2026 Federal Budget just changed the rules for Australian property investors, but not in the way most headlines suggest.Note: Refer to the list of timecoded episode segments below After a flood of listener feedback following last week’s emergency Budget preview episode, Australia’s leading property investment strategist Bushy Martin returns with a major post-Budget deep dive unpacking what the new property tax reforms actually mean for investors, homeowners, renters and the future of wealth creation in Australia. In this special extended episode of the Get Invested podcast, Bushy cuts through the political spin, media noise and social media panic to break down the real-world implications of the 2026–27 Federal Budget, including the Government’s landmark changes to capital gains tax, negative gearing, discretionary trusts and future property investing incentives. Importantly, Bushy explains why property investing is far from dead, but why the era of lazy, tax-led “set and forget” investing may now be over. This is not a doom-and-gloom episode. It’s a strategic roadmap for navigating what could become one of the biggest structural shifts in Australian property investing in decades. Bushy challenges the Government’s “intergenerational fairness” narrative, questions whether the reforms will meaningfully improve affordability or rents, and exposes the contradiction between Labor’s previous “supply-first” position and the sweeping tax changes now being introduced. But more importantly, he explains where the opportunities are likely to emerge next. From new-build incentives and shifting capital flows through to borrowing power, holding costs, trust structures and the emerging post-Budget investment sweet spot, this is a practical, strategic and highly actionable masterclass designed to help investors think clearly while others react emotionally. Bushy also unpacks the broader economic and behavioural implications of the reforms, including the potential unintended consequences for supply, rents, development feasibility and investor participation.

FEDERAL BUDGET 2026 PREVIEW: What if the biggest threat to Australian property investors isn’t the market, but Canberra rewriting the rules? In this special Budget-week episode of the Get Invested podcast, Bushy Martin steps outside the normal Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock rollout to unpack the growing noise around potential Federal Budget changes to Capital Gains Tax, negative gearing, trusts and grandfathering, and what it could mean for investors, homeowners, renters and retirees alike. With the 12 May Federal Budget looming, Bushy breaks down the difference between political headlines and practical reality, explains why grandfathering may become the “nuclear issue” for existing investors, and why the real danger isn’t necessarily reform itself, but investors continuing to rely on outdated, lazy, tax-driven property strategies. This isn’t a technical tax lecture. It’s a calm and practical briefing designed to help Australians think strategically before the Budget lands. In this episode, Bushy explores: Why this Federal Budget could materially reshape the future of property investing The growing conversation around CGT, negative gearing, trusts and entity structures Why the “fairness” narrative may only be part of the story How proposed changes could impact borrowing power, holding costs and long-term retirement plans Why grandfathering protections matter so much for existing investors The difference between strategic investing and “hit-and-hope” speculation Why quality, scarcity, finance and holding power are becoming even more important The likely shift toward investment-grade homes with strong owner-occupier appeal Why experienced investors focus on strategy, structure and fundamentals — not just tax deductions What aspiring and existing investors should prepare before Budget night Why next week’s post-Budget breakdown episode could be one of the most important episodes of the year Bushy also explains why property investing isn’t dead — but why the next phase of the market may heavily expose investors who relied purely on negative gearing, endless refinancing and rising markets to make poor-quality property decisions look smart. Whether you’re an experienced investor, an aspiring buyer, a business owner using trusts, or someone simply wondering what all of this means for your future wealth and retirement plans, this episode will help you approach Budget week with far more clarity, calm and strategic perspective. If you want Bushy to unpack the final Budget announcements in next week’s episode, or you’re concerned about how potential changes may affect your portfolio, structures or future plans, reach out directly through Bushy Martin.

What if the biggest driver of your financial future isn’t what you know, but the decisions you keep repeating? In this second part of Bushy’s rolled gold conversation with property investor Aaron Christie-David, we move deeper into the E stage of the Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock — Examination, where awareness turns into responsibility, and responsibility demands action. This is where your decision patterns are exposed for what they really are — the bridge (or barrier) to your future capacity. If Part 1 helped you see what’s going on beneath the surface, this episode challenges you to own it, and start changing it. Bushy and Aaron unpack why wealth is rarely the result of one big move, and almost always the outcome of small, repeated decisions that either build momentum, or quietly destroy it. They explore: Why wealth is built (or broken) through the decisions you repeat daily How small, seemingly insignificant choices compound into major financial outcomes The hidden cost of indecision — and why avoiding decisions is still a decision Why confidence is a critical driver of financial progress How fear operates as an invisible constraint on your capacity The way property amplifies your behaviour — both good and bad This is a confronting but empowering listen. Because the truth is your future won’t be shaped by what you intend to do, but by what you consistently do. And if you can change your patterns, you can change your trajectory.

Why do so many smart, capable people feel like they’re doing okay financially … but never quite getting ahead? In this “Rolled Gold” episode with Aaron Christie-David, part of the E for Examine stage of the Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock, the focus shifts to honest self-assessment, helping you unpack what’s really going on beneath the surface of your financial life. After exploring your WHY and unpacking your spending habits and discipline in recent episodes, this is the natural next step. Because before you can build momentum, you need clarity on where you actually stand, not where you assume you are. Aaron Christie-David is a property investor and finance professional who works closely with everyday Australians on lending, structuring and long-term wealth strategy. Through that lens, he sees firsthand how behaviour, life choices and mindset, not just income or opportunity, ultimately determine financial outcomes. In this conversation, he brings that grounded, real-world perspective to explain why so many people stall without realising it. This episode tackles the deeper questions most people avoid: - Why does progress feel slower than it should?- Why do smart people drift financially over time?- What decisions (or lack of decisions) are actually shaping your future? This isn’t about strategy yet, it’s about awareness. Because clarity always precedes capacity. Key insights you’ll take away: • Financial stagnation rarely looks like failure — it often feels like stability• Comfort can quietly mask stagnation and delay progress indefinitely• Lifestyle drift is subtle, but incredibly expensive over time• Comparison distorts your perception of progress and fuels dissatisfaction• “Doing okay” can be the biggest risk to long-term freedom• “Good” is often the enemy of “free” The core idea is simple but confronting: the real enemy isn’t struggle, it’s unconscious comfort. If you’ve ever felt like you should be further ahead by now, this episode will help you understand why, and give you the clarity needed to move forward with intent.

What if the real thing holding you back from financial freedom isn’t the market, the bank, or your income, but your daily behaviour? This episode is a Rolled Gold replay with Bushy and Amanda Thompson - author of Financially Fit Women, award-winning financial planner, three-time world championship qualifying Ironwoman, and founder of Endurance Financial. And that endurance lens is exactly the point. In this early E-stage episode of the Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock rollout, the focus shifts from strategy to self. Before borrowing power, deal analysis or timing the market, this is about financial fitness, and whether your current habits are actually setting you up for freedom. This is a key hinge point in the journey. You’ve clarified your WHY. You’ve started to examine your money thinking. Now it’s time to look at what you’re actually doing day to day. Because wealth isn’t built in big moments, it’s built in patterns. In this episode, you’ll hear: Why financial freedom is a behaviour pattern, not a one-off event How Amanda’s endurance mindset reframes wealth building completely Why small, repeated habits outperform bursts of good intention Why financial fitness comes before financial freedom The cost of misalignment between your values, goals and spending Why systems and discipline beat hope every time How better habits build confidence, capacity and choice over time If you’re earning well but not getting ahead, this will help you see why, and where to start. Before we move into borrowing capacity, life choices and the BEAR Facts, this is the reset point. Get this right, and everything that follows gets easier.

What if the scariest property headlines right now aren’t warning signs, but signals most people are misreading? In this episode, Bushy unpacks the growing “fear squeeze” shaping today’s property market, where rising uncertainty, tighter lending conditions and noisy headlines are creating confusion for everyday investors. While some are pulling back or freezing, the reality is more nuanced: the real pressure isn’t just interest rates, it’s a multi-layered squeeze on borrowing power that most people don’t fully understand. Rather than reacting to headlines or surface-level signals like rising listings or rents, Bushy breaks down what’s actually happening beneath the surface, and why this phase of the cycle is quietly creating selective opportunity for those who stay calm, prepared and strategic. Key takeaways: The real squeeze isn’t just interest rates - it’s a combination of lender pricing, tighter serviceability, DTI scrutiny, HEM creep and conservative valuations all hitting borrowing power at once More listings don’t automatically equal more opportunity - “fake supply” and reluctant sellers can distort what’s really available Rising rents don’t guarantee investor wins - higher costs, debt levels and risk are still squeezing many investors Headline-driven fear is causing hesitation, which is creating selective buying windows for prepared investors Infrastructure and shifting “usefulness” are quietly shaping future demand before the broader market catches on Preserving borrowing capacity, buffers and flexibility is becoming a critical long-term strategy The biggest risk right now is misreading signals and overestimating what you can actually afford This phase rewards calm, informed, selective investors - not reactive, headline-driven decisions The real divide isn’t owner vs renter or rich vs poor, it’s those who are prepared versus those who are not This episode will leave you clearer on what’s really driving the current market squeeze, more cautious about the narratives dominating the media, and better equipped to identify the quiet opportunities others are missing.

What if financial freedom isn’t built by moving faster, but by learning to slow down? In Part 2 of Bushy’s conversation with Max Phelps, we move deeper into the E for Examine stage of the Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock where awareness turns into action, and habits start to shape outcomes. If Part 1 exposed the trap, this episode begins to map the way out. Bushy and Max unpack the hidden link between patience, spending and wealth, and why the real game isn’t played in big financial decisions, but in the quiet, repeated choices no one sees. They explore why modern money feels so effortless (and dangerous), how convenience erodes discipline, and why introducing friction back into your financial life can be one of the most powerful moves you make. This is where behaviour meets strategy, and where most investors either take control or keep drifting. Key takeaways: Financial freedom is built by slowing down decisions, not speeding them up Patience and friction are underrated wealth-building tools Deliberate spending beats autopilot every time Wealth is created quietly through consistent, everyday choices Property success is downstream from basic financial discipline The E stage is about identifying your money behaviours and regaining control before making bigger moves If you’re serious about building long-term property wealth, this is the step you can’t afford to skip. Because before strategy, before leverage, before your next deal … comes discipline.

                                                        In this episode on The Freedom Formula, Erin Bradley shares how: Freedom is not just about money or flexible hours — it's about creating a life and business that feel peaceful, intentional, and aligned. If you constantly feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or reactive, the first step is awareness: track how you're actually spending your time. A simple shift from obligation-driven tasks to more intentional, priority-based action can dramatically change your results. Protecting your mornings and your energy is one of the most powerful ways to reduce overwhelm and lead your business more effectively. Structure is not the enemy of freedom — when used intentionally, it actually creates more ease, clarity, and white space in your life.                                                                                   About Erin Bradley Erin Bradley is a speaker and business coach, bestselling author, and host of the real estate podcast Pursuing Freedom.

Smart people don’t stay broke because they lack intelligence, they stay stuck because their money behaviour is unconscious. As Get Invested moves from W for Why into E for Examine on Bushy’s annual Property W.E.A.L.T.H. Clock, this Rolled Gold conversation with author Max Phelps is your cue to pause, look under the hood, and get brutally honest about what your financial habits are really doing to your future. In this foundational E-stage episode, Bushy reframes wealth-building away from strategy and market timing, and back to where it actually starts: behaviour. Before you worry about suburbs, cycles or interest rates, this is about diagnosing the patterns that are either funding or sabotaging your long-term wealth. What’s covered: Why smart, capable people still feel financially stuck despite solid incomes The hidden concept of “money leakage” and how small daily habits quietly drain wealth The gap between intention and action and why knowing better doesn’t mean doing better How unconscious spending and autopilot decisions undermine long-term goals Why your bank statement tells the truth, even when your story doesn’t The role of awareness as the first step toward financial control and discipline Why sustainable investing success starts with behaviour, not strategy Key takeaways: Most people don’t have an income problem first, they have a behaviour problem Financial success begins with honest self-examination, not external tactics You can’t out-invest poor habits, behaviour compounds just like money Awareness precedes control: you can’t change what you don’t see Before you build wealth, you need to become someone who can direct money intentionally In a world of noise, hype and shortcuts, boring fundamentals beat flashy nonsense This episode marks the opening move in E for Examine, diagnose before you strategise. It’s not about guilt or restriction. It’s about clarity. Because until you understand what your daily money behaviour is really saying, every investment decision you make is built on shaky ground. If you’ve ever wondered where your money actually goes, or why progress feels slower than it should, this is the mirror moment, and the reset point, you’ve been avoiding.

This episode lifts the lid on how the RBA actually makes decisions and what really drives interest rates, property markets and investor outcomes. With rising uncertainty around inflation, global conflict and rate movements, Bushy cuts through the noise to give you a clear, practical framework to understand what’s happening now and what is likely to happen next. This is about shifting from reacting to headlines … to reading the signals that move markets ahead of time. Key takeaways Property cycles are driven by future demand and supply scarcity, not interest rate movements The RBA operates from a data dashboard (inflation, labour, spending), not media headlines Labour market tightness (Beveridge Curve) is a critical leading indicator Property markets often move before rate cuts (the 6-month rule) Australia’s housing shortage is structural, not cyclical Demographics continue to underpin long-term housing demand Uncertainty creates opportunity for prepared investors The real divide is prepared vs unprepared What you’ll learn How to interpret RBA decisions with clarity and confidence The key signals that matter and what to ignore Why waiting for certainty leads to missed opportunities How to position yourself ahead of the next property move A simple framework to stay calm and act in uncertain markets Bottom line If you’re relying on headlines, you’re reacting too late. The investors who win are those who understand the signals early and act while others hesitate.

In this special Get Invested episode, Bushy Martin pauses the normal Property WEALTH sequence to unpack the real-world economic chain reaction from geopolitical shocks and translate it into clear, practical insights for Australian property buyers, homeowners and investors. Rather than speculating about war itself, Bushy explains how global conflict flows through the economy via oil prices, freight costs, inflation, consumer confidence and interest rates - and how these forces ultimately influence borrowing power, rents and property values. Most importantly, this episode helps listeners stay calm and strategic while the media fear cycle ramps up. In this episode Bushy breaks down: • Why the biggest impacts of global conflict on Australian property are indirect, not direct • How oil price shocks flow through shipping, inflation and household budgets • The potential knock-on effects for interest rates, borrowing capacity and buyer demand • Why the scariest headline is rarely the most likely economic outcome • The three possible scenarios - worst case, best case and the messy middle • Which parts of the property market are most exposed if pressure increases • Why outer mortgage belts and thinly buffered households may feel the squeeze first • Why tight rental markets could still push rents higher even if buying slows • How well-prepared investors may find contrarian buying windows during uncertainty • Bushy’s practical C.A.L.M. framework for navigating fear-heavy market cycles The key takeaway? Global shocks don’t affect everyone equally. The real dividing line in uncertain times isn’t renters versus owners or young versus old - it’s prepared versus unprepared. If you want to understand how geopolitical turmoil may ripple through Australia’s housing market, and how to position yourself wisely rather than react emotionally, this episode is essential listening.

Your wealth plan might be missing its most important asset - you. In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin is joined by Epigenetic Health Strategist Chris Barnes to explore the often overlooked link between high performance, health and financial freedom. Most investors spend their time analysing markets, inspecting properties and chasing returns, yet rarely inspect the engine driving their decisions - their own biology. Through Bushy’s Sustainable Success “Borromean Rings” framework - the integration of Self, Health and Wealth (the 3 ELFs) — this conversation reveals why Self and Health are the sustainability multipliers that protect and extend Wealth. Chris explains how chronic stress quietly undermines judgment, resilience and long-term compounding, why genes may load the gun but lifestyle pulls the trigger, and why high performers need biological awareness as much as bigger goals. If you’re building a 20-year wealth strategy, this episode is a powerful reminder that you can’t build long-term financial freedom on a short-term nervous system. Key insights you’ll hear in this episode: • Sustainable wealth requires sustainable physiology. • Most investors inspect properties - not themselves. • Genes load the gun; lifestyle pulls the trigger. • Chronic stress impacts decision-making, risk tolerance and long-term compounding. • High performers need biological awareness, not just bigger goals. • You can’t build a 20-year wealth plan on a 2-hour nervous system. About Chris Barnes: Chris Barnes is an Epigenetic Health Strategist and Certified Epigenetic Performance Coach who works with high-performing executives, investors and entrepreneurs to bridge the gap between ambition and biology. Having analysed more than 500 genetic reports and spoken at international health conferences, Chris specialises in helping driven professionals optimise performance, reduce chronic stress, and build sustainable longevity through personalised genetic and lifestyle insights.

As pressure builds to scrap negative gearing and cut the CGT discount to “fix” housing affordability, Bushy Martin explains why these popular tax changes could actually push rents higher and make affordability worse. In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy moves the conversation from headline emotion to systems thinking. Instead of blaming investors or chasing political quick fixes, he breaks down what negative gearing and the CGT discount actually do - in plain English - and walks through the likely second-order consequences of changing them. If you’re a renter feeling locked out, a first-home buyer craving relief, or an everyday investor feeling blamed and unsure what to do next, this episode brings clarity to a heated debate. Housing isn’t a morality play - it’s a supply system. And in a shortage, anything that shrinks supply tends to make affordability worse. What You’ll Learn: What negative gearing and the CGT discount actually do Why “relief-seeking policy” can trigger lock-in, pullback and rental squeezes How tax changes may hit renters first Why waiting for a crash could be a costly mistake What a grown-up, integrated affordability solution really looks like The Bottom Line: Quick fixes can create bigger problems. Before wishing for sweeping tax reform, understand the incentives and the flow-on effects - because in housing, second-order consequences matter.

Worried that years of disordered eating have permanently damaged your metabolism? You're not alone. In this Coaching Over Coffee episode, Lindsey addresses one of the most common fears in eating disorder recovery: "Is my metabolism broken?" The truth might surprise you—and it's actually incredibly hopeful. What You'll Learn in This Episode The truth about metabolism: What it actually is and how it works in your body Can you break your metabolism? Spoiler alert: No, but you can slow it down (and speed it back up!) The myth of "calories in vs. calories out" and why this oversimplified formula doesn't tell the whole story What happens to your body during restriction: How your metabolism, digestion, heart rate, and body temperature all slow down to conserve energy Hypermetabolism in recovery: Why your body goes into "high gear" during the restoration process Science-backed hope: Research showing metabolic changes are fully reversible How to boost your metabolism: Practical steps to work WITH your body instead of against it Set point weight explained: Understanding when your body reaches its optimal performance state Key Takeaways Your metabolism isn't broken—it's adaptive. When you restrict food intake over months or years, your body learns to conserve energy by slowing down non-essential functions. Think of it like turning off lights in the house to save power. Research proves recovery is possible. A University of North Carolina study found zero metabolic differences between women who never had eating disorders and those fully recovered from anorexia and bulimia. All metabolic changes are fully reversible. 50-80% of your energy goes to resting functions. Your body needs fuel for basic organ function, tissue repair, fighting infections, physical activity, and digesting food—all before you even get out of bed. The opposite of the disorder is the path to healing. Stop restricting. Start fueling. Embrace food variety. Let go of rigid routines. Prioritize hydration, quality sleep, and self-care. Your body knows better than you think. At set point weight, your metabolism normalizes and your body operates at peak performance—not where society says you should be, but where your body thrives. Quotes from This Episode "You can slow down your metabolism and you can speed up your metabolism, but you can't break your metabolism. It's not ruined, it's not wrecked." "Your body doesn't care how you think it should look, or what society says is the best or the trendiest. Your body cares about its optimal function." "The lie that your eating disorder mind is telling you—that your metabolism is ruined—is just to keep you stuck, to make you believe there's nothing you can do to fix this." "Your body will heal itself, but you must learn to trust and to honor it. It's a two-way street." Resources Mentioned Harvard Medical School research on metabolism variability University of North Carolina and Chapel Hill study on metabolic recovery What's Next? If you're tired of missing the magic in your life because you're trapped in those eating disorder thoughts that are eating away at your mind—I want you to take a stand.

The holidays are here. And if you're struggling with an eating disorder, you know exactly what that means—anxiety, overwhelm, and missing the magic happening right in front of you because you're stuck in your head, counting, calculating, and controlling. But what if this year could be different? In this fan fav, I'm getting real about how the eating disorder literally steals decades of precious moments from your life. How many Christmases have you missed because you were trapped in those ED thoughts? How many family gatherings have you sat through physically present but mentally a million miles away? Here's the truth: The present moment is your present. And it's time to stop letting your eating disorder be the Grinch that steals your holiday joy. I'm sharing a powerful realization I had while standing in line with my boys to see Santa—how they were fully immersed in the magic while everyone else (myself included) was rushing, stressing, and missing it. And it reminded me: recovery happens in the NOW. Not in the past with regrets. Not in the future with anxiety. Right here. Right now. In this episode, you'll discover: Why the eating disorder wants to pull you out of the present moment (and how to fight back) The shocking statistics about anxiety during the holidays (and why being present is actually a recovery tool) How 89% of individuals who practice mindfulness during recovery report better outcomes 3 practical ways to choose presence over perfection this holiday season Why your recovery is the most magical gift you can give yourself How to focus on connections over calculations at family gatherings If you're tired of missing the magic. If you're done letting your ED steal another Christmas. If you're ready to be HERE for the moments that matter—this episode is your holiday recovery guide. The present is your present, sis. Let's unwrap it together. KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

Have you ever had that moment where you're hustling hard, income is flowing, business is booming… yet deep down you still don't feel financially free? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm breaking down the simple, powerful financial freedom formula that finally helped me understand what true abundance actually looks like and how to calculate it without stress, confusion, or overwhelm.This episode isn't about hype, Lambos, or flexing revenue screenshots. It's about learning the exact numbers used by some of the world's smartest investors and high-performance entrepreneurs — numbers that I personally learned from my buddy Joey Klein, who studies under Justin Donald, founder of The Lifestyle Investor and one of the most intentional wealth creators I know. These numbers aren't theory. They're real, proven, and used by people who have actually achieved total financial liberation.Once I wrapped my head around these three numbers, my relationship with money shifted instantly. They gave me clarity, confidence, and the ability to actually feel financially safe, not just “hope” everything would be fine as long as I out-earned my expenses.The first big lesson? Most people have no idea what their life actually costs. In fact, research shows that 74% of Americans have no long-term financial plan, and over half don't even know what they spend each month. No wonder so many entrepreneurs feel stressed, stuck, or burned out. When you don't know your numbers, anxiety fills the gap.But when you do know them?Game. Changer.In this episode, I break down the three numbers that matter most, your Core Necessities Number, your Lifestyle Burn Number, and your Aspirational Number. Each one gives you a clearer picture of what you truly need, what you currently live on, and what your dream reality actually costs. And more importantly, it gives you a target for how much passive income you'll eventually need to create real financial freedom.Here are a few key takeaways from the episode:Your Core Necessities Number is your safety baseline.It's the bare minimum you need to live without stress. Once passive income covers this number, you become financially safe — and that feeling alone can change everything.Your Lifestyle Burn Number defines financial freedom.This is what your life actually costs when you're being honest. When passive income covers this number, you are financially free — meaning you no longer need to work to maintain your lifestyle.Your Aspirational Number fuels your vision.This is the fun one — your dream-life budget. Travel, investments, giving, adventures, upgrades… whatever makes you light up. Knowing this number helps you build a life you're excited about, not just a life you can afford.Financial freedom is a math problem, not a mystery.When your passive income exceeds your Lifestyle Burn Number, you're free. Period. It's simple, empowering, and achievable — but only if you know where you're aiming.True wealth is the combination of time freedom, creative freedom, and financial freedom.Money isn't the goal. Money is the tool. Freedom is the goal.My hope is that this episode helps you step out of financial fog and into financial clarity — so you can stop guessing, stop stressing, and start building real wealth with intention.If you're ready to calculate your three numbers, shift your mindset around money, and design a financially aligned life that supports your purpose, your peace, and your Happy Hustle… you've got to check out this episode.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.
