  • Weekly Retrospective #3

    In this week’s retrospective, I catch my breath after a long travel day (they let me back into the country!), learn that I'm not immune to accepting suboptimal solutions, set my sights on the June T-shirt Challenge and get ready for the announcements of WWDC.

      • #6: Pushing Through the Dips

        Starting new things is the easy part. We’re excited and full of passion. 

        But what happens when that passion fades? Will you still keep going? How to keep yourself motivated and avoid distractions with “new, shiny” things? 

        On this episode, I’ll talk about some sound advice that’s helped me with “pushing through the dips”.

          The Cocoa Nomad Podcast: Weekly Retro #2

          In this week’s retrospective, I talk about how my hackathon project didn’t go as smoothly as planned, how changing countries is disruptive to my routine, and how my June Challenge will allow me to get reacquainted with some old tools.

            • #3: Accountabilli-Buddies

              Today, I talk about the benefit of having accountabili-buddies, people that you meet with frequently to hold you accountable for the goals that you set. Whether it’s an informal call or a formal mastermind group, it’s beneficial to have others invested in your success and willing to help you get there.

            • #2: Fake It Til You Make It Is BS

              There's never a need to be fake. Stay authentic and true to yourself. In today's episode, I talk about the pitfalls of the "Fake It Til You Make It" mindset and why it's unnecessary. 

              I'm just getting started in podcasting solo and it definitely shows (there's not even any intro music). But there's nothing fake about it. As with most things, it's a process and that's OK.

              Welcome to the Cocoa Nomad podcast, a show about location independent entrepreneurship. I’ll discuss the techniques, tools and tips that can help you balance work and travel and share my experiences (and experiments) in trying to make both a living and a life.

              This episode is a bit of my origin story and why I've decided to start podcasting my journey.  I just wanted to give a taste of what's to come and the ideas and topics that will be discussed. Hope that you'll come along.

              Thanks!
