Rachel Lathrop and her family traded in their traditional Michigan life for full-time RV living, and she’s not just surviving—she’s thriving! 

With a full-time remote job, two teaching gigs, and a PhD in the works (yes, really!), Rachel still found time to dive into content creation while traveling. (Oh, and did we mention her whole family is neurodivergent?)

In this honest and inspiring chat, Rachel shares how she balances a packed schedule, keeps her ADHD family running smoothly, and found a creative outlet that brings in extra income without the pressure of becoming an influencer.

If you’re already living the full-time travel life but looking for fresh inspiration to balance business, creativity, and family, Rachel’s story is packed with ideas you’ll want to steal.
