71. From passion to financial empowerment with Varsha Banker

In this inspiring episode, we hear from Varsha, a dynamic entrepreneur juggling a successful IT career by day with a thriving DJ events business by night, all while empowering women to be financially stable and free through real estate.  Varsha reflects on the courage she needed to navigate her challenging divorce two years ago, choosing to walk away rather than give up her passions. She also shares how a personal health challenge from birth shaped her resilience and determination to succeed and how vulnerability transformed her struggles into strengths. Varsha discusses her love for music and dancing, detailing her journey into DJing and the successful launch of her first events company. And more recently, recognising single mothers' unique challenges, she founded Real Estate for Women, a platform dedicated to supporting and empowering women to achieve financial independence through property investing. Varsha describes herself as a high-risk taker who puts her heart and soul into all she does. Her proactive approach to challenges has allowed her to pursue her passions without fear or overthinking, two things that often hold us back.  Varsha's story is one of determination, passion, and commitment, encouraging you to break barriers and pursue your dreams despite the obstacles.   What you'll learn in this episode: The brave choice to leave a marriage after being given an ultimatum to abandon her passions.
