Goals DO Come True with Doug Bennett

Life Is Too Short For Ordinary When Extraordinary Is An Option with Karen King

Listen Later

Join Doug Bennett as he sits down with Karen King, creator of Gold Star Pro and founder of The Escapepreneur™ for a conversation about her journey to location independence, world schooling her children, and running her businesses remotely. Karen shares her transition from living a traditional Australian life to traveling for a decade, visiting 57 countries. This episode explores the hidden benefits of traveling full time, including saving $250,000 on accommodation. She shares how setting clear goals, using vision boards and not being afraid to live life beyond societal expectations have helped on her journey.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Like most people, Karen and her family did everything society told them they needed to do to be happy. But they were working too hard and had very little extra money or time for their kids.
  • Pet or house sitting is a great way to travel without paying for accommodation. Karen explains how to get started and get the most from this approach.
  • Karen started her business while travelling but advises people to start one before they begin their travels.
  • Automate as much of your business as possible. Karen explains how to automate your lead magnet, email list growth, bookings, making sales and more.
  • Gold Star Pro supports small businesses and helps them use tech to automate processes. Her new initiative The Escapepreneur™ guides people to create online income and live extraordinary lives.
  • Get really clear on what is important to you and what you want out of life. Don't let societal norms restrict your thinking when you sit down to do this.

    • BEST MOMENTS

    "Life´s too short for ordinary, when extraordinary is an option."

    "It was cheaper for us to travel full time than to live our very ordinary life in Australia."

    "We spend three months over winter skiing in Bulgaria, and then we head off and travel."

    "Automated reminders in in the back end, 24 hours before, an hour before, dramatically increases your conversion rates."

    "You don't have to go and get a university degree and, you know, do crazy things to be able to fund this lifestyle."
