She Took a Risk on a Seachange… and Accidentally Made the Best Money Move of Her Life
Every money story has a sliding door moment... the decision that could go either way. Stay safe, or risk it all. This week’s Money Diarist chose the second option: she sold her house, walked away from job security, and packed up the family for a sea change with no plan and no savings. Everyone (including her parents) thought it was risky. And honestly? At first it did look like financial chaos. But that one leap set off a chain of events she never could’ve predicted, the kind of glow up that proves the riskiest decisions sometimes deliver the sweetest rewards. You’ll hear how she navigated debt, uncertainty, and living week-to-week, the turning point that changed everything, and the money wins she still can’t quite believe are hers. If you’ve ever stared down a scary choice and wondered what might happen if you said yes… this is your sign to listen.Ready to binge more relatable, inspiring, and downright juicy money stories?

How Much Should You Really Have in Savings? And What To Do If Your Financial Advice Feels Wrong
So… what is the magic number you should have when it comes to savings? Is it a neat percentage, a chunky dollar figure, or three months of bills sitting pretty in your account? This week we’re spilling the tea on how to work out your number, so you can stop guessing and start saving with a plan that actually makes sense for your life. Then we chat about what to do when financial advice doesn’t pass the vibe check. A community member was told to merge their life savings with their partner. Cute in theory, terrifying in practice. So, what do you do when the “experts” say one thing but your gut says absolutely not? We’re pulling apart the red flags, the real questions to ask, and why protecting yourself is the ultimate power move. And because it’s Friday, you know the chaos is here too: money wins (like a $340 dress scored for $80), broke tips that actually slap, and a ferret side hustle we did not see coming. Ready for more laughs, lessons, and unhinged money chats? Check out our oh-so-bingeable Friday Drinks playlist. Listen here.

How a Former Pro Athlete Really Manages Her Money
Have you ever had to say no to something you couldn’t afford... and it completely changed your life? This week’s Money Diarist has. She was literally ranked top 10 in the world as a professional athlete… while earning less than $20k a year. (Yep, you heard that right. Top 10 in the world, but that's all she was paid). Backed by her powerhouse single mum, she trained, studied, worked odd jobs, and poured everything into her sport, until the moment came to head to Europe to compete and the price tag was just too high. That no changed everything. Fast forward to today and her money story looks very different. She’s swapped early morning training for a six-figure 9–5, added a pilates side hustle and has gone through a casual financial glow-up.
