This week I sit down with digital nomad and founder of the Nomad Cruise to talk about the future of conferences and cruises for digital nomads. We talk about why we both decided to take a financial loss and give 100% refunds for both the Nomad Cruise and the Nomad Summit, and what we plan on doing in the future for our events. 

It's a good insight on how in person events are run, the finances behind them, and the secrets behind why early bird tickets are so cheap and why door tickets are so much more expensive. Our sponsor this week is Buddy, text BUDDYINSURE to 474747 to get your free quote today. 

​Peter Santenello, originally from San Francisco and featured on episode 225 of Travel Like a Boss previously has been making Youtube videos full time, traveling the world, and being a content creator even during these crazy times.

It was fun catching up with Peter after meeting over a year ago in Ukraine. Since then a lot has changed in both our lives, and the world. Take a listen, it's an interesting conversation between two friends who haven't talked much since 2020 started. 

​Daniel Rose is the co-founder and former CEO of Six Pack Shortcuts (SixPackAbs.com) along aside Mike Chang who was on Episode 248 of the podcast. Dan continued to grow and pivot the company using Youtube ads first to the over 40 fitness crowd, then to supplements, all before selling the business to entrepreneur and investor Thomas F. Harter. 

The exact sale amount is undisclosed but was in the $10M-$100,000M range, leaving Daniel Rose a multi-millionaire from the exit. In this episode we talk about how we both got our start with internet and affiliate marketing, how he used Youtube ads to grow the business, and why he started his Youtube marketing agency Social Response Marketing.

Aleona is a digital nomad, born and raised in Russia, but saw the opportunity to move aboard to Denmark go attend University. Since then she has learned English, Danish, and Programming Languages. She now works as an iOS App Developer while traveling as a digital nomad. 

This is a fun and inspiring story of someone who took control of her life, learned valuable skills, and how gets to spend her days surfing here in Sri Lanka, traveling and hanging out with friends. 

It's been a long journey these past couple of years since Mike Vestil and I last met in Chiang Mai. In this episode we talk about our journeys as location independent entrepreneurs, and how we have both changed and grown over the years. Mike and I are both digital nomads still, and recorded this in Bali and Sri Lanka. 

Take a listen, it's a long episode, and ends up being Mike interviewing me somehow halfway through, but either way, it was a fun chat and there's a lot of valuable takeaways and life as well as business lessons learned in this episode.

Marc and Julie Bennett are authors of the bestselling book Living the RV Life and have been working remotely from their RV full time for the past 6 years years. We talk about the differences between #VanLife and #RVLife as well as why many digital nomads are now learning towards home basing and living and traveling out of RVs or Vans. 

This episodes also answers the questions of what the pros and cons of of custom built vans vs. off the lot or used RVs and what the differences are between the class A, B, and C models as well as what life is actually like for RV nomads. 
​

From being the co founder of Six Pack Shortcuts (Now SixPackAbs.com) and creating $13,000,000 a Year in Revenue to leaving the company to find his flow state and true, lifelong happiness.
​
We talk about how using psychedelics can show you a glimpse of what is possible, but the downsides of relying on them instead of going to the root cause of stress and unhappiness. This is a really powerful episode that dives deep into why anyone would leave a company doing ten million dollars a year in sales and 7 figures each year in profit. 

This episode talks about finding and maintaining true lifelong happiness, fitness, and is a must listen. 

​In this episode I sit down with Debbie Arcangeles from The Offbeat Life. Here's a bit about her.

​"Born in the Philippines, I did not always have the best of things and my family often struggled to make a living. Everything changed when my mom immigrated to the United States when I was 2 years old.  From then on our situation became better, but I also lost a mother who had to leave in order to give us a better life.  So, it was just me and my dad until I was 8 years old.

Like most immigrant families, there was a lot of struggles along the way. The biggest one is not being able to see my mom for most of my early childhood. I found that fire when I became honest with my self, and began to do what I really wanted instead of what was expected of me. Today, I hike beautiful trails, meet incredible people in the most unexpected places and get paid to travel the world!" - Debbie Arcangeles

This episode is with Kristin Wilson on the topic of why some digital nomads are coping better during this quarantine than many people.

We discuss the following topics: 
​

• Daily life hasn’t changed much for us in many ways.
• Familiar with uncertainty and discomfort. (also just not having access to certain things)
• Minimalist lifestyle and low cost-of-living
• Multiple revenue streams
• Personal identity not tied to a job or company
• Comfortable using remote collaboration tools
• Pre-existing focus on mindset and mental health
• Less familial pressures at home
• Part of a global community
• Reality Check for many so called digital nomads.

We talk about why many digital nomads (not all, but many) are doing well and coping under quarantine better than the average person who came from a normal life and a 9-5 job. We also talk about how we can help those who aren't coping well or are having distress during this time.
