For years, I thought I was an extrovert. I love chatting with people, I’m never shy in social settings, and I’m often the one starting conversations. But here’s the twist — after a day full of social interaction, I feel completely drained.

In this episode, I share how I discovered I’m actually an ambivert and how working in a people-facing job left me facing something very real: introvert burnout. I talk about my weekly “me-day,” why solitude isn’t selfish, and how embracing this need for alone time has reshaped my lifestyle, career thinking, and self-worth.

If you’ve ever felt exhausted after too much socializing — even if you love people — this one’s for you.

You don’t need a six-figure salary to build wealth — just patience, consistency, and a plan. In this episode, I share how I’ve built financial security through minimum-wage jobs, consistent investing, and choosing peace of mind over hustle.

If you’re not earning more yet, this one’s for you.

In today’s episode, I share how my definition of wealth has evolved over the years — from growing up in a communist country, to chasing validation through travel, to finally discovering that true wealth means time, health, freedom, and peace.

I talk about how minimalism, quiet mornings, and working on passion projects like this podcast became my new measures of a rich life — and why I no longer need external validation to feel fulfilled.

I also invite you to reflect: What does wealth mean to you?

In today’s episode of One Step Wealthier, I talk about why I chose a simple, low-stress job over chasing titles or corporate recognition. I work as a receptionist—not because it’s my “dream job,” but because it gives me what I actually need: time, energy, and mental space to build my own dreams.

I share why I’m not trying to turn my passion into a paycheck, why I’m okay with a job that funds my life without draining me, and how working on yourself matters more than working toward someone else’s goals.

If you’ve ever felt pressure to chase status—or questioned if “just a job” could be enough—this episode is for you.

In this episode of One Step Wealthier, I share what recent market volatility taught me about diversification and emotional peace of mind. We dive into the concept of negatively correlated assets — what they are, why they matter, and how they’ve helped me feel more secure with my investments.

💡 Topics we cover:

• What are negatively correlated assets?
• How gold, crypto, and cash can stabilize your portfolio
• Why I’m not a big fan of bonds (at least for now)
• The importance of cash not just for emergencies, but also for opportunities
• How diversification helped me stay calm when the markets dipped

This is not financial advice — it’s my personal approach and lessons learned. Always do your own research.

🟡 Stay diversified, stay calm, and stay wealthy.

This episode started quietly—with a glass of wine and an evening alone—and turned into something deeper. I talk about the difference between loneliness and solitude, and how I went from craving connection to finding peace in my own company.

From a party-filled life in my 20s to cycling solo through the Australian outback (and crying on the side of the road), I share how solitude became a source of strength rather than something to escape.

This one’s for you if:

• You feel guilty for wanting more time alone
• You’re wondering whether your solitude is healthy
• You want to build a life that feels grounded—even when it’s quiet

In this episode, I share a deeply personal reflection sparked by a recent health scare. It wasn’t serious, but it made me stop and really consider how I spend my time, energy, and focus — and how often we overlook the most important investment we can make: our own health.

You’ll hear about:

• Why energy is a resource worth protecting
• The real ROI of exercise, food, sleep, and rest
• How I approach fitness as a long-term investment (not a quick fix)
• The connection between physical health and mental clarity — including financial decision-making
• A reminder that compound interest doesn’t just apply to money

This one’s for anyone who wants to build a richer, more sustainable life — and who knows deep down that health is freedom.

💡 Quote to remember:

“You can’t buy back energy — but you can build it, protect it, and invest in it.”

In this episode of One Step Wealthier, I open up about a big realization I had on my FIRE journey—saving money, even on a low income, isn't enough. I share how I used to feel like a master saver, tucking away money even during call center jobs, only to find out that savings alone won’t build long-term wealth. We’ll talk about inflation (yes, the sneaky flatmate that eats your money), why your bank account isn’t your best friend, and how investing is the true game changer.

If you’ve ever wondered why your savings never seem to stretch as far as they used to, or how to actually grow your money even when you’re not earning much—this one’s for you. I’ll also ask the question: are you only saving, or are you investing too?

Let’s get One Step Wealthier, together.
