About the Guests:
Terry is all about making money meaningful. He’s got a talent for breaking down big financial ideas into simple, practical steps that help people feel confident and committed to learning.

His expertise comes from two key areas. First, as a performance coach, he worked with some of Australia’s top sports teams and athletes, where he learned how to turn big dreams into concrete plans and a few powerful habits. Then, after earning his MBA and moving into management consulting, he gained the skills to create adult learning programs that make financial knowledge valuable and accessible.

In 2019, Terry teamed up with Ryan Monaghan, his co-founder, to combine their strengths and create a unique financial education platform designed especially for young professionals. Together, they’re making it easier for people to take charge of their finances.

He wanted financial freedom… but he didn’t want to give up living life.

While he’s away, his properties will keep growing in value on their own.

So how did he do it?

How did he gain financial freedom through property investing… without stressing over every market movement?

Ever feel like you’re navigating the property market blindfolded?

You’re not alone.

Claire Westra, our guest on Dashdot Insider, has been there.

She went all-in on a DIY approach, thinking she could handle it solo—until she found herself frustrated with a property in Toowoomba that sat stagnant for a whole year.

Her first property investment in Brisbane brought some early success, but when the stock market crash hit, it made her rethink everything. That’s when she realised the real cost of relying on emotions and outdated market data.

Claire found Dashdot, and suddenly, everything changed.

Using predictive data and a team of experts, she stopped guessing and started investing. Her goals shifted, too—from dreaming of a forever home to focusing on building a life that gave her freedom. She’s now well on track to early retirement with a thriving portfolio.

Claire’s advice? Don’t go it alone. Get yourself a team—solid professionals who can guide you through the ups and downs. And be open to new strategies, like rent-vesting or even Airbnb.

She’s learned that with the right support, those big, scary goals start to look a whole lot more achievable.
