  You might be thinking, wow, she's been banging on about her holiday for weeks.
• 0:09
  What are you doing talking into the microphone, Sophie?
• 0:12
  Well, I actually am recording this just as I'm about to go to the airport.
• 0:16
  I have my bag packed.
• 0:19
  I have my swimsuit ready to go.
• 0:22
  We are taking a two-week hiatus.
• 0:25
  Well, it's not really a hiatus.
• 0:27
  It's a summer break.
• 0:28
  What we're actually going to be doing is releasing the OG vintage Raising the Curve episode.
• 0:33
  So this is the second episode we ever released, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth.
• 0:38
  And this is our top most listened to episodes.
• 0:42
  That will take anybody who is a total beginner, so knows really not a lot about money investing, probably hasn't started investing at all, or if they have, they don't really know what they're doing.
• 0:54
  So that you can go back and listen to when I was a baby who knew nothing about money.
• 1:00
  So these episodes, they were recorded six years ago.
• 1:04
  So this is when I was in debt.
• 1:06
  I didn't understand what a stock was.
• 1:09
  I'd never invested.
• 1:10
  And, you know, six years later, I am now in no debt.
• 1:15
  I have two investment properties.
• 1:17
  I have over 100K in the stock market.
• 1:19
  I've completely turned my financial situation around.
• 1:23
  And I actually think it's completely changed who I am as a person.
• 1:26
  I've been reflecting on this a lot because I just had my birthday.
• 1:29
  I just turned 35 and I just had a haircut.
• 1:31
  I feel like I'm entering a new phase of my life, of the business as we've launched the fund.
• 1:36
  I think there's just lots of things changing at the moment.
• 1:39
  You may have heard in the last episode that she's moving back to New Zealand so that she can run the fund.
• 1:44
  You know, there's just lots of change happening and it's all really good stuff.
• 1:48
  And it's made me feel very nostalgic for where I was five or six years ago.
• 1:53
  I was a completely different version of myself and listening to these old episodes and hearing how cute and naive and just a total rookie with all things money I was.
• 2:05
  So if you know anyone who
• 2:07
  hasn't entered the Curve chat yet, who hasn't started learning about money and investing, this is a really good chance for them to get on the bandwagon from the beginning.
• 2:17
  So we're going to be re-releasing those episodes.
• 2:20
  It might be a really nice chance to re-listen and to refresh and just to remind yourself of how silly and funny those episodes were.
• 2:27
  Honestly, I had such a giggle listening to some of these episodes.
• 2:32
  So that is what's happening.
• 2:33
  We're taking a two-week little break.
• 2:35
  I really, really hope that in the next two weeks you don't go find another finance and podcast episode.
• 2:42
  I think in all honesty probably the reason we haven't taken a break is because we just – we know how valuable your time is and we are so grateful that you –
• 2:51
  choose to listen to us and learn from us.
• 2:53
  And we don't take that for granted.
• 2:55
  Thank you so much to everyone who listens to this podcast, who engages with our brand.
• 2:59
  Like we would be nowhere and nothing without our amazing community.
• 3:03
  So yeah, sending you all lots of love.
