Have you ever wondered if there’s a better way to manage your finances and work-life balance, especially if you’re feeling stuck in a midlife grind?

In Episode 23 of It's a Mindset, we dive into a thought-provoking conversation with Natasha Etschmann, a content creator, founder of @tashinvests, and co-host of the Get Rich Slow Club podcast. Tash is also the co-author of How To Not Work Forever, a book packed with practical advice on investing in Australia and achieving financial freedom without giving up the things you love.

In this episode, Tash shares her personal journey towards financial independence and offers insights into her investment strategies as a Gen Z. We discuss Exchange Traded Fund's (ETFs) versus property investing, ways to overcome limiting beliefs about money, and practical tips for stretching your dollar amidst the current cost of living crisis. Tash also explores the role of a positive growth mindset in overcoming social media challenges and achieving both personal and professional growth by setting clear goals.
