Ep. 08 Moving Across the Country Thanks to Remote Work
29 minutes Posted Jul 8, 2020 at 2:55 am.
Have you felt like you wanted to make a drastic move or change? But you could list off 109 reasons why you "just can't" We get so side-tracked by what we “should” do and where we “should" be that we let excuses and complacencies get it the way of doing what we WANT. I often get asked, “How were you able to make such a drastic move across the country?” and I have to always start with the same answer. Yes, I was extremely motivated to make a big change, but really, it was greatly due to the opportunity I got to work remotely. This episode I explain why and how I made the move, 3,000 miles away, in a 2 door Jeep Wrangler. It's one thing to be location independent, and live the laptop lifestyle, but it's another to actually create a life you love by doing it.   Topic 1 - Why making a big move will help other areas of your life. Feeling fulfilled, being productive.
Topic 2 -  Listen to your gut and make that tough decision.
Topic 3 - When I first  got the opportunity to work remote.
Topic 4 - Tradeoffs and what you leave behind making big decisions.
Topic 5 - About the cross country road trip on a budget and with almost no plan.
Topic 6 - How having my remote work and income allowed me to actually make the move, and not let excuses get in the way.
