For our final episode in our 2024 Summer Series, we're welcoming Amanda, an extraordinary guest who is not only a TPC listener but also an empowering qualified property investment advisor at Ben's advisory!   

 Today, she's sharing an incredibly eye-opening and gut-wrenching story...  

Amanda grew up in an environment where...

"Money was frequently used as one of the tools on the coercive control toolbelt by my dad... There was also financial inequity between the males and females in my family growing up."   

From battling psychological, physical and financial abuse to rebuilding her family's life from scratch after a life-changing epiphany, we're unpacking a tale that demonstrates Amanada's strength and determination at every turn.   

But this story isn't just about Amanda.    

We also get to celebrate how her inspirational supermum escapes from this abusive relationship and takes control of her future – also using property as a vehicle! 🙌🙌🙌      

It's a truly impactful and heartwarming story – we're finishing our 2024 Summer Series with a guest we're so proud to have on the couch and in our team.

Imagine waking up to find yourself $30,000 in debt with a restaurant business turned bad and a great deal of self-doubt left in its wake. 

Now fast forward a decade or so to find...

You've amassed a $2.78 million property portfolio; you are now confident on your path to helping others and you are financially empowered.  

This is the rollercoaster ride of James, today’s articulate and inspirational Summer Series guest.

From growing up “material poor but experience rich” in the heart of Canada (You’ll have to tune in to find out how this Aussie family found themselves in the remote province of Manitoba) to running a successful bar business that ended in disaster, we’re tracing the peaks and troughs in James’ career and financial life. 

Together, we unpack how he snowballs out of this debt, the advantages that come from having a wonderful accountability partner and wife, and his passionate pathway to self-development. 

Plus, we’ll dive into that heart-dropping moment that this self-professed “enthusiastic amateur” realised HE was working alongside spruikers 😮  

Yet another fantastic story that highlights the importance of smart money management, resilience, the power of financial education and so much more!  

Thank you for coming to the couch to share your story, James! Listen now folks.

It’s our final episode for the year and folks, we’ve saved one absolutely inspirational tale to finish 2023. 

As a hint of what’s to come, today’s articulate Summer Series guest invested $500 into Westpac shares at the age of 10.  

While this one action already sets him aside, Bailey isn’t special just because of his remarkable approach to investing but because of one skill that, as described by Ben, is “one of the greatest skills to learn in life”.  

Tune into this fascinating episode to find out what sets this 24-year-old apart from the rest, how he bought his first property at the young age of 21 and to hear the heart-warming reason why he decided to speak out and come onto the couch.  

This guest has Ben and Bryce completely rapt.  Seriously, give it a listen now folks 😊🌌✨

It’s no secret that maintaining a multi-property portfolio in a high-interest environment is hard. 

Now add in a difficult divorce and raising two teenagers in the most expensive phase of their lives and well...

You have the incredibly motivational and heart-warming story of Lesia, this week’s brilliant Summer Series guest.  

From her initial plan to own 10 properties (yep...things really have changed since the times where “he who dies with the most properties wins!") to the revolving door of properties she’s bought and sold to juggle cashflow...

We follow Leisa on her jaw-dropping journey as she navigates holding onto her 4 properties, is blasted with a $15,000 levy fee, manages mortgage prison and much more on her journey to passive income retirement. 

An inspirational tale for all, we hope Leisa’s story will inspire - particularly the middle-aged folks out there or solo supermums - who fear it’s too late for them to get onto the property ladder. Please just listen to this episode!  


P.S. Merry Christmas folks! From Bryce, Ben & the team of Stigs, we hope you have a very safe and festive break 😊🎄🎅🎁

 This week’s episode is about many things...

💎 The boundless rewards that come from delayed gratification, 
📚 The enlightening power of financial empowerment, and...
🧑‍🌾 Getting out of your comfort zone by heading to the outback.   

Meet Amy, today’s brave and resourceful Summer Series guest! 

Growing up with “tangible money values”, Amy would spend her early 20’s prioritising life experiences over financial gain until the age of 26 when she made 1 life-changing decision...

This would completely change her financial future and allow her and Sam, her wife, to leap onto the property ladder in less than a year.

Tune in to hear what this revolutionary decision was, their experience moving from the East Coast to the Outback and their diverse property investing journey.   

From their first hands-on property investment to the land purchase near Byron Bay to the joint venture with her parents, Amy’s story has many chapters full of laughs and good lessons along the way. 

An episode for those who are willing to get outside their comfort zone to get into the property game, listen in now! 


P.S. Did we mention...Amy’s been a Property Couch listener for 9 years?! What an honour to talk to a long-time listener 😊🌌✨

Folks, today marks the FIRST episode of our much anticipated 2023/24 Summer Series!

We’re extraordinarily excited to sit down with some amazing listeners and dig into their money story, explore the steps they took to build their property portfolios and ultimately unpack the intriguing question (which is also the theme of this series...)

“What does money mean to YOU?” 

As our 6th Summer Series, we’re spending this season digging deep into the psyche of the investor, understanding what motivates us ultimately as humans and understanding how we can use this knowledge to bolster us on our property journeys. 



To start us off, we’re welcoming an incredibly hardworking and humble guest who realised at a young age that if he wanted anything in this life, he would have to make it happen himself. 

Ethan, today’s Summer Series guest, grew up with a younger brother with Down Syndrome and at just 16 years old,  was diagnosed with depression. Knowing that the school teaching system wasn’t working for him, he left school shortly after.  

Over the next 14 years, Ethan has completely transformed his circumstances and now owns a 5-property portfolio worth 2.3 million dollars. 🤯🤯🤯  

Tune in to discover how he bought his first property at 18 while earning apprentice wages (He was on $6 an hour folks!), why he continues to invest in Wodonga and the benefit of having a strong network and great tenants.  

Ethan was also recently diagnosed with Aspergers, adding another layer to his incredible journey!  
 
Thank you for blasting off our 2023/24 Summer Series Ethan, what a truly motivational tale that showcases the importance of hard work and highlights that young people can get onto the property ladder.
