Pay Yourself First, Dream Bigger, Go Scared: Money Lessons From Regina & Luise (EP#27)

Women repay microloans 98.6% of the time.

Men? About 64%.

Yet female-led teams still get roughly 2% of VC funding.

The data is clear. Money in women’s hands works.

So why aren’t more women putting their own money to work?

Regina Brury came to Zurich from Brazil and now runs a global tech career, a touring band and a podcast production company.

Luise Ammerschuber went from terrified of public speaking to the stages of TEDx, the UN and Davos, while running microcredit and savings programs from Myanmar to Uganda.

Together, they build as one unit, and their money habits are as bold as their careers.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

→ “Live with the rest,” the simple rule that changes how you spend

→ Why they split costs proportionally, not 50/50

→ How to fund a new venture without a loan

→ Why 1–2 years of savings came before launching a business

→ How asking for your dream salary led to three job offers

→ The 5-minute rule to stop overthinking and start investing

Regina’s rule:

Pay your fixed costs. Pay yourself. Invest. Save.

Then live with the rest.

Luise’s rule:

Save one to two years of living costs.

Then take the leap.

Their final words:

“If you’re scared, go scared.

Just start doing it.”
