Intro

If you’ve been saying “I really should start investing" this episode is for you. Because wanting to invest and actually investing are two very different things. And for most of us, it’s not laziness or lack of ambition that keeps us stuck. It’s the quiet spiral of I don’t know enough yet... or I don’t have enough money... or what if I pick the wrong thing... and what if I mess it up. This episode takes all of that and changes it to confidence, because Victoria is breaks down exactly how she’d start investing in 2026 if she had to begin again with nothing. 

Inside this ep:
📈Why waiting until you feel ready is the fastest way to never start
📈How starting small actually builds confidence quicker than going big
📈The difference between risk and panic (and why investing isn’t gambling)
📈What to focus on when you’re paralysed by too many options
📈How to invest without it becoming your entire personality
📈The important reason Victoria still prioritises investing over putting all her money into her mortgage
