Saving money is one of those things we’re told should be simple, but somehow rarely feels that way. In this Summer Starter episode, we unpack why saving feels harder than it should, even when you understand the basics, and what actually needs to change for it to start working in real life. Victoria is joined by behavioural scientist Dr Lily Susman to explain how money habits form, why being tough on yourself often backfires, and how to build saving behaviours that align with your values and lifestyle. This episode will help you stop blaming yourself, see your money habits more clearly, and approach saving in a way that feels realistic, supportive, and sustainable.

So who should actually pay on a date, and what are you meant to do when the bill arrives and someone suddenly gets a bit weird about it. This week’s Friday Drinks tackles a DM from someone newly back in the dating world who’s trying to work out whether she’s being too picky, or whether she’s just finally noticing the stuff she used to brush past, like the keeping score, the silence that feels like a test, and the little gold digger jokes that aren’t really jokes. We talk through what’s a fair preference, what’s an early warning sign, and how to be clear about your money values without turning dinner into a negotiation, and we asked the community what they think is normal early on because honestly the answers are revealing. We're also talking bridging loans, which always sound simple until you’re the one trying to buy before you sell and you realise how much of it comes down to timing, pressure, and having a plan if things don’t happen as quickly as you hoped. Victoria breaks down what they actually are, when they can make sense, and where the risk really sits, and as always we’ve got community money wins and broke tips that are both useful and unhinged at the same time.

Is a Bridging Loan Worth the Risk? And The Dating Money Red Flags We Can’t Ignore

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/5e8d4947-d33d-490f-9ed4-b3d10176dc6c/transcript

If buying a home feels harder (and way more confusing) than it did a year ago, no, you’re not imagining it. The rules have changed, the competition has changed, and suddenly everyone is talking about 5% deposits like they’re either your golden ticket or the end of the world. Lucky for us, mortgage queen Jaclyn Walsh is here to break down what’s actually going on in the property market heading into 2026. We unpack the headline changes everyone’s yelling about, what they mean in real life, and Jac’s inside scoop on how banks are really assessing and approving loans right now. Plus we answer the biggest property finance questions straight from our community. This episode is all about putting yourself in the strongest possible position to buy, without spiralling, second-guessing every move, or making rushed decisions you regret later.

In this ep: 
🏡 Why buying with five percent feels easier and more stressful at the same time
🏡 What banks have changed behind the scenes… and why it matters to you
🏡 The mistake first home buyers are making before they even start looking
🏡 How to buy without panic-bidding, overcommitting, or regretting it later
🏡 Why Victoria isn’t racing to pay off her mortgage (on purpose)
🏡 Hacks that shave years and thousands off your mortgage


For all your mortgage and refinancing needs, you can contact Zella here.
