   Design masterclass with Darren Palmer

   Great design has little to do with trends and everything to do with how a home actually functions for the people living in it. Interior designer, author and The Block judge Darren Palmer sets out a practical framework for timeless design, covering the everyday decisions, storage, lighting, layout, that carry the most weight, and where it's worth spending versus saving.

   Making room: loneliness, connection, and what it costs us all

   Loneliness is widely misunderstood and often mistaken for a mental health issue rather than the distinct, measurable condition it actually is. Dr Michelle Lim, CEO and Scientific Chair of Ending Loneliness Together, unpacks new national research on who's most at risk, why the 45 to 54 age group is the most socially isolated in the country, and the small, practical steps that genuinely build connection into an already full life.

   Neighbourhood first

   Welcome to the Live proud podcast—candid conversations, real stories, and clear advice for Australian homebuyers. In this episode, we’re flipping the order most people follow. Instead of ‘find a house, then hope the area fits,’ we start with place. You’ll meet Rashi and Div, who stress-tested their future neighbourhood with a simple five-minute rule: schools, shops, parks, and daily errands within 5 minutes of home—and only then chose land and a builder. We’ll talk through how visible delivery and meeting the on-ground team built enough trust to buy again in the same community, this time as an investment. Plus, the practical decisions that kept surprises at bay: titled vs off-the-plan, how to pick a lot that holds value, and where to spend once so you don’t pay twice.

For some, it’s a smart way to get a foot in the door; for others, it feels like a leap of faith. Our guest is Tanveer Ali, Senior Mortgage Broker with Loan Gallery — a finance specialist who’s helped hundreds of first-home buyers navigate this journey with confidence.

    Is the Australian housing market ready for Gen Z?

    In this episode of the Live proud podcast, we’re putting a generation under the microscope — Gen Z. They’re digital natives, globally minded, and coming of age in one of the toughest property markets Australia has ever seen. But despite the headlines, many are still finding ways to make homeownership happen — even if it looks very different from the traditional path. Our guest is Lucy Callahan, a 25-year-old renter who’s balancing career, travel dreams, and long-term goals of owning her own home. She’ll share what she and her friends are really thinking about property, how they’re getting creative with deposits and partnerships, and why sustainability and flexibility matter as much as square metres.
