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