118. From Empty Nest to Open Road: Carol Tice on RV Living, Freedom, and Building Work You Can Take Anywhere
Send Jay comments via text
What if the space between parenting and grandparenting became your most vibrant, alive season? In this episode, entrepreneur and community-builder Carol Tice shares her transformative journey—from selling their Seattle home to living full-time on the road in a 24-foot RV. Discover how she and her husband designed a life centered on mobility, minimalism, and meaningful work, turning “someday” into their everyday reality.
Carol recounts their pandemic-era trial run—healthy habits, vegan cooking, long bike rides—and how a full year on the road reshaped their priorities. She dives into the practical choices behind RV life: choosing a rig that fits anywhere, solar power as a game-changer, and navigating boondocking at hidden gems like the Lost Coast. She also highlights the social fabric of RV communities, especially in Quartzsite, Arizona, where neighbors swap help regardless of class or politics.
Highlights & Key Takeaways:
- Why waiting for grandkids isn’t the only way—start living now.
- Building sustainable, location-independent income streams.
- Minimalism as a pathway to financial and personal relief.
- Selling your house to reduce costs and embrace freedom.
- How a trial RV trip can jumpstart healthier habits and clarity.
