Ever felt a pull to take a leap into the unknown? Alicia certainly did. Trading her corporate career for becoming a life coach and digital nomad, Alicia's journey is truly inspiring. She was the first employee of the outdoor gear company Arc'teryx, but after attending a transformational leadership summit, her life took a completely new direction. Alicia shares her journey from being a 9-5 employee to a life coach who now guides others to embrace change and fulfill their potential.
Alicia's path is far from traditional, but it was her mentor’s advice to 'never waste a crisis' that sparked a significant change in her life. She and her partner chose to live a more meaningful life, a life beyond just financial gains. Alicia’s optimism and coaching skills played a crucial role in helping her partner switch from an unfulfilling job to a more satisfying career. Listen in as Alicia discusses her experiences, her decision to live abroad and the unique insights she has gained throughout her journey.
Alicia's travel stories from the US, Belize, Costa Rica, and now to Panama are more about people and relationships than destinations. In our discussion, Alicia talks about her decision to move to Panama with her family, the challenges they are facing, and the life lessons they are learning. She shares how embracing a new culture and environment shaped them. As they prepare to move to Panama in two weeks, Alicia reveals her plans to build a co-working space in the Panama jungle and shares her dream of living a more meaningful life with intentional work-life integration. Her inspiring journey of transformation provides us with a fresh perspective on embracing change and finding meaning in our lives.
