This week we're deep-diving (again!) on credit scores, and what they mean for you in Australia - as there are SO many things floating around the internet at the moment about "improving your credit score via credit card" and that's just not the case! TLDR; here in Australia you DO NOT need a credit card, personal loan OR any kind of debt to give yourself a good credit rating. Have a gorgeous Wednesday angels!

Spoiler: Our goal-setting habits are broken. But, it’s not your fault. It’s the psychology we’re raised with.

It’s Deep Dive time! And this financial new year, Victoria and Jess are here to help you get out of your own way, so you can start ticking off those EOFY resolutions nice and early. How? By revisiting the psychology behind setting and sustaining financial goals for the year. 

During this episode, the girls share insights about how current approaches to budgeting, investing and general goal-setting might actually be limiting our capabilities, plus ways we might overcome this with practical advice from authors Adam Grant and Angela Duckworth.

This is less about one quick fix for your best year yet, and more about setting goals you’ll actually stick to. Controversial opinion: They don’t fall apart because the journey is hard, they crumble because the journey is boring. 

P.S. Please share your goals with us, so we can a) hold you accountable, and b) celebrate you!

Your Best Financial Year Yet: How to Set Money Goals That Actually Stick

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/ed53e30d-c46c-40dc-ae06-b475005efeff/transcript

This week's Money Diary starts with what should have been a straightforward hospital visit.

Her husband was 32, healthy, active, and recovering from glandular fever when doctors spotted something completely unexpected on a scan. A few months later, they received the news nobody expects to hear: it was cancer. What followed was months of waiting, uncertainty and trying to keep life moving while living in limbo.

But there's another part of this story that really stuck with me. Just over a year earlier, after hearing countless conversations about money, they finally decided to sort out their personal insurances. Not because they thought they'd need them. Just because it felt like the responsible thing to do.

Thank goodness they did. 

We talk about the diagnosis that changed everything, navigating a trauma insurance claim in your 30s, what financial security really means when life throws you something completely unexpected, and why this experience changed the way they think about money forever. It's a conversation about planning for the things you hope never happen, and why sometimes the most boring financial decisions end up being the most important ones.
