Digital Nomad Lessons From the Bangkok Earthquake

Episode 185: The Earthquake & The Digital Nomad — Lessons Learned

In this episode of Digipreneur FM, I share the raw and powerful story of experiencing a 7.7 magnitude earthquake in Bangkok — and how it reinforced the true meaning of freedom in a digital nomad lifestyle. This isn’t just about travel; it’s about resilience, flexibility, and crafting a life that allows you to move through the world on your terms.

From emergency preparedness to rethinking home ownership, and redefining success in the modern world — this episode is packed with perspective-shifting insights.

3 Key Topics Discussed

1. Emergency Preparedness for Digital Nomads How the earthquake exposed the importance of having your documents (like your passport) accessible at all times — especially when living abroad. We dive into how digital nomads prepare differently for crises.

2. The Hidden Costs of Ownership vs. the Freedom of Flexibility A deep reflection on how home ownership can actually become a liability during emergencies — while nomads, untied to physical assets, can pivot without disruption.

3. Redefining Success in 2025 Forget the white picket fence. We explore how flexibility, location independence, and alignment are the new measures of success — and why this shift is more important now than ever.
