Nicole Bremner is an investor, certified financial coach, author and mum of three. Having had a successful career in investment banking, like many women who take a ‘career break’ to have children, she found herself at a crossroads, not entirely sure what path to take next.
Combining her financial knowledge with her passion for good architecture and design, Nicole was able to build on her experience and expertise to develop a new career, which fit around her children and spent the next decade building a multi million property portfolio in London.
Newly relaunched as Prosperity Podcast, Nicole interviews some of the interesting people she has met while navigating her (sometimes turbulent) voyage through professional and family life. From charity founders and travelling investors to authors and young entrepreneurs, these are the real tales of real people finding their way in business. Join Nicole as she listens to their stories and the lessons they have learned along the way.

Prosperity Podcast: Mastering Money and Mindset for Real Prosperity
How resilient is the UK housing market? A candid conversation with mortgage broker and first time novelist Martin Stewart #168
Nicole Bremner welcomes back Martin Stewart to the Prosperity Podcast, veteran mortgage broker, founder of London Money and now published author for a frank and insightful look at the resilience of the UK housing market, the shifting shape of consumer debt and how society’s expectations around money, property and success are evolving.
Martin shares his expert view on why the housing market continues to defy predictions of collapse, despite rising interest rates, affordability challenges and political uncertainty. From the fallout of Trussonomics to the pressure on younger generations burdened with debt and inflation, this episode cuts through the headlines to explore what’s really happening behind the scenes.
But this episode isn’t just about mortgages. Nicole and Martin also explore the psychology of consumerism, the role of the Bank of Mum and Dad, the impact of short term debt and why we might be the first generation to give too much to our children, leaving them unprepared for what’s ahead.
In a more personal twist, Martin also opens up about his transition into fiction writing, discussing the release of his (excellent in my view) debut novel Goodbye Morecambe, set in his nostalgic hometown of, you guessed it, Morecambe. The conversation touches on creativity, self publishing and the vulnerability of sharing a story that’s close to the heart.
🎧 Whether you’re a property professional, investor, or just fascinated by the intersection of finance, society and storytelling, this episode offers thoughtful commentary, expert insights and a few laughs along the way.
📌 Key Highlights:
✔️ The UK housing market’s surprising resilience
✔️ The reality behind mortgage approval rates and affordability
✔️ Generational wealth, consumer debt and the illusion of prosperity
✔️ How lockdown shaped Martin’s creative journey
