  • Ep 32 - How can I kickstart investing my money? (ft. Jenny Phan)

    Today we're joined by the remarkable Jenny Phan to unravel the enigma of investing. Not only does she manage her investments with finesse, but she's also here to share invaluable wisdom with us.

    So, if you're wondering, "How can I kickstart my investment journey?" this is your episode!

    We start by going deep into the employer-sponsored retirement account (that's part of your compensation! Use it!). And how much is enough to commence this financial journey? Jenny asserts that you can dive in with as little as a dollar. And when it comes to building wealth, consistency is key. Jenny's advice is simple: invest early and invest often. Whether you're captivated by passive investing, ETFs, or index funds, the essence remains the same—long-term growth. (And yes - we're teaching you all the terminology!) Your financial future awaits your proactive step, no matter how small.

  • Ep 30 - Am I having a quarter or midlife crisis? (ft. Maike Neuhaus)

    Have you ever felt like the shoe you've been wearing for a while suddenly doesn't fit anymore? That's the essence of what experts refer to as a midlife crisis. But is it limited to just midlife? Peet delves into this intriguing phenomenon with guest expert Dr. Maike Neuhaus.

    In this conversation, host Pete introduces the concept of a "third life crisis" for those of us who hit the introspective mode in our 30s. Dr. Neuhaus reveals that a midlife crisis, though commonly associated with our 40s and 50s, isn't restricted by age. It's an emotional crisis where life's shoes cease to fit comfortably, irrespective of when it strikes. This state, often referred to as "languishing," can make us feel directionless, unfulfilled, and detached.

    We're getting into symptoms and solutions, to get back to "flourishing". Remember, it's never too early—or too late—to explore life's uncharted territories and seek fulfilment.

  • Ep 28 - How can I pack up my whole life (and family) and move to a different country? (ft. Lorraine Murphy)

    Lorraine has packed up her whole life, business and family and moved to Spain earlier this year. In this episode, she give hands on tips so your move is as smooth as can be. We're getting into the nitty gritty of it: should you move appliances, how do you tell and prepare your kids for the move, how many adapters must you bring (more than you think!) and how do you ship boxes to your new post code. 

    Also, Lorraine is convinced you should "just do it" if you're doubting about moving. There are challenges, and it probably will be tough at times, but so worth it. Peet and Lorraine also discuss how they have both moved before and not enjoyed it. They both chalk it up as an experiment and an itch they scratched - not a failure. And that's how everyone should look at it, according to Lorraine. If you don't like it, you can always go home.

    Anna Christie, a 32-year-old Australian living in Amsterdam, is the founder and host of the podcast "Bumps Along the Way." She joins Peet as a guest to share her journey of trying to conceive and the challenges she and her husband faced with infertility. Initially not taking it seriously, they decided to start trying for a baby after their wedding but encountered unexpected difficulties. Anna describes the emotional toll of the "loop of hope and heartbreak" as they dealt with the disappointment of not conceiving month after month.


    The struggle with infertility took a toll on their mental health and relationship. Anna emphasizes the importance of opening up to loved ones and finding supportive people who understand the emotional burden they carry. She advises against giving unsolicited advice and instead encourages empathy and understanding when supporting someone dealing with infertility.


    As a sensitive topic, Anna discusses how friends should approach announcing pregnancies to someone who has been struggling with infertility. Anna's candid sharing highlights the need for more open discussions about infertility, fostering understanding and support for those facing similar challenges.
