This week, we’re joined by our friend Rebecca — aka @rebeccathepropertygirl and honestly, this chat is one of those heart-expanding ones that reminds you why we’re even doing any of this in the first place.

We talk about what it actually looks like to manage property with empathy, how financial independence changes everything (especially for women), and why success doesn’t have to look like owning a whole portfolio — sometimes one property is all it takes to shift your entire life.

We get into:

✨ Making property work for you, not the other way round

✨ Why great landlord-tenant relationships matter more than you think

✨ The shift happening in property law + what you need to know

✨ The emotional side of investing (yes, it’s real)

✨ And how to stay true to yourself while building your own version of success

It’s full of perspective, permission, and a little bit of power for anyone feeling like they want more. More purpose, more autonomy, and a bit more softness in this space.
