If you’ve ever wondered whether the city grind is really worth it, or what it might feel like to walk away from everything familiar to start over, hit play.


This week, Tash flips the mic onto Viv, our behind-the-scenes producer with a unique money story. She had a job she adored and a team that was the perfect fit. There was one thing she couldn’t shake though; she didn’t love the city she was living in.


Instead of pushing through, Viv and her partner made the choice to walk away from Sydney and return to rural Australia, where they once couldn’t wait to get away from, to build a tiny home and a slower way of life.
