141. When Nomadic Life Meets Real-Life Struggles


Listen Later

Ever wondered what life as a nomadic therapist really looks like? In this candid episode, I pull back the curtain on the not-so-glamorous side of nomadic life struggles and share a deeply personal update. From navigating hurricanes and caregiving for my father with early Alzheimer’s to moderating a Facebook group of 20,000 members (amid election drama), it’s been a wild ride.

I also talk about balancing multiple income streams, managing a portable practice, and handling the unexpected curveballs that come with a digital nomad lifestyle. This is an unfiltered look at the challenges and lessons I’ve faced recently as a Traveling Therapist.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

  • The reality of fleeing hurricanes and living out of Airbnbs.
  • My journey to Greece and how I travel hack for premium experiences.
  • Caregiving challenges while maintaining my nomadic lifestyle.
  • The chaos of moderating large Facebook groups during political turmoil.
  • Lessons on scaling a business while letting go of perfectionism.
