Betting on Yourself with Tanya Baker: “I Used My House Deposit to Start a Business”

from The Weird Years · host Lydia Vornweg

In this episode of The Weird Years, I sit down with Tanya Baker, founder of her own real estate agency, who used her house deposit to start her business. Yep, the house deposit.We talk about what it means to bet on yourself to create a new future, why owning a home isn’t the be-all and end-all, and how taking a risk can feel scarier than staying stuck...but is totally worth it. Tanya shares what it’s really like to walk away from a safe job, work harder than ever, and navigate the sacrifices that come with starting your own business.  If you’re flirting with the idea of ditching your corporate role to fly solo, this one’s for you.✨Follow Tanya @tanyabaker.co.uk📲 Follow us on Instagram: @theweirdyearspodcast🚀 New episodes drop every Tuesday!
