In episode 84, I’m sharing my journey from working traditional corporate jobs to becoming a full-time digital nomad. If you had told me years ago that I’d be running my own business while traveling the world, I would’ve laughed. But here I am—and today, I’m breaking down how I made it happen.
We’ll dive into:
- The turning points that led me to explore remote work.

- The biggest lessons I learned—what worked, what didn’t, and what I’d do differently.

Key Takeaways:
- How to explore remote work without quitting your job overnight.
