Creative Contact w/ Kia Orion

Two months out from the breakup, recorded at the new place outside the city. I talk about Coop, the AI assistant that's been emailing embassies to help me renounce my US citizenship, and the other half of this season, which might include Bible study at 35.

Creative Contact is my weekly pod: life abroad, decisions, and figuring it out in real time.

A hands-on-my-head kind of episode. A little existential crisis last night turned into the real question: what am I actually passionate about, and how do I build a business I'm excited to wake up for? Plus why the 9-to-5 is my mortal enemy, and why I'm starting at zero to one.

two, actually

I've been testing mountain life around Medellin on weekends. Turns out I like the idea of living out here more than the living out here. A short one about small experiments and what they taught me.

Recorded right after getting let go for the second time in a year, from a place I'm about to give up because it's too expensive. Stay or go, shrink to the cheapest rent possible or swing for it, and how to decide before you feel ready.

Recorded early in the morning from a mountain town in Colombia I'd never been to. Some Colombia talk, and me thinking out loud about the shape of the business.

No fancy intro on this one. Lost the job, lost the girl, and now everything's flexible. On exploring this era through small experiments instead of one big leap.

Lost the job, lost the girl, and for the first time in years nothing is holding me in place. A rambling one from the end of August about what it feels like to be completely untethered.

dark night of the soul type shit

War mode vs monk mode.
