A Lot To Talk About

Bryce & Alec (Ren) are the two Aussie lads behind the popular finance & investing podcast Equity Mates.I invited the fellas on the poddy to discuss Australia's housing & affordability crisis, how to start your investing journey & the keys to building wealth & planning your future while enjoying your avo toast & oat latte's too.As a 23 year old I fought my way into the property market at the end of 2019, sold high in the covid housing boom in 2021 & burnt through my piggy bank pursing my dreams & living my life. I don't regret it, in fact it taught me a lot about myself & afforded me an opportunity to invest time in creating the kind of life & opportunities I wanted for myself. Now as a 28 year old man who hopes to provide for my partner & future family, I am starting to think about our financial future but I don't want to stop enjoying life & having experiences, it is too precious & we only get 1 go at it.So how does one achieve the best of both worlds? A balance of financial stability, wealth generation & a whole lot of livin in the process...Tune in to this incredibly fun & informative conversation with Equity Mates, learn along with me & be sure to subscribe to the poddy, share the episode with your mates & connect with us on socials @bradleyjdryburgh @equitymatesBig love,Brad xoxo*This episode of the show is a conversation & is not intended to be used as qualified financial advise.

Humanity is currently facing a crisis. Women are falling victim to physical, sexual & emotional abuse at the hands of men & the statistics tell a sad story of a culture gone wrong.I spent the morning having a long form conversation with 2 of my best mates. We are certainly not experts, we don’t have all the answers but we wanted to start a conversation & create dialogue to develop our understanding, to be accountable for what needs to change & to lead the way for other men to do the same. We understand that the we can only try to empathise with women, but we can’t speak to their personal experiences as young men & because of that, we invite anyone listening to the episode or watching along to contribute to the conversation with feedback or their own perspective. Cultural change requires a collective effort.In this conversation, we discuss:- What does it mean to be a good man?- How we can take responsibility to create safer environments for women to live without looking over their shoulder or feeling uncomfortable in environments like the workplace, school & bars/clubs?- Redefining sexual abuse & giving clarity to what society has previously defined as a ‘grey area’.- Sharing the female perspectives of women we know & the work advocates like Chanel Contos are doing to help women call out in-appropriate behaviour & help men understand it. - The problematic narratives in media that creat further division instead of unity for positive change. & much more.
