Ashrams, Ayahuasca & Releasing Female Investors from Bound Feet (Mar Häusler part 2)| EP 17

Mar Häusler was a trader in the City of London during the financial crisis — chasing millions on the trading floor. Then she walked away from all of it. What followed was a decade-long journey into Burning Man, ayahuasca, and ashrams across the world.
In this episode, Mar and I talk about what so many female investors are still bound by today — not just fear, but inherited trauma, silence, and social roles that were never designed for us.
We explore what it means to truly feel safe with money, why hoarding is not the same as investing, and how financial freedom requires inner freedom first.

She Made €100 Million and Walked Away (with Mar Häusler, Part 1 | EP 16

Behind the deals, strip clubs, and jet-set finance — something was breaking.
In this episode of Money and Freedom, I talk to Mar Häusler — a former trader who lived through the 2008 Financial Crisis from the inside. At just 25, she was working 19-hour days in London, trading through market collapse, living on adrenaline and Red Bulls, skiing with the boys, and taking client calls from strip clubs.
She made €100 million for the bank — and then walked away.
This conversation goes beyond finance. It’s about burnout, golden handcuffs, and the hidden cost of ambition. It’s about being a woman in a world where power still plays by old rules. And it’s about what it really takes to step off the path everyone else applauds.
🔑 In this episode:
Trading through the 2008 crash
What it was really like to be one of the only women on the floor
Red Bulls, Vegas, private jets — and the pressure beneath it all
Burnout and the wake-up call
Why walking away might be the smartest move you can make
📌 This is part one. In part two, we explore what happened next: Burning Man, ayahuasca, and redefining success on her own terms.
