Building a Travel Lifestyle: Digital Nomadism, Slow Travel, Exploring Latin America with Kyle Cohenour

Do you want to take the leap from office life to embracing a digital nomad or travel lifestyle? In August 2021, Kyle Cohenour made a major life change — he sold most of his belongings, left his apartment in Florida, and embarked on his journey as a location-independent digital nomad. Since then, he's visited 14 countries, spending two years living and slow traveling in Mexico, 4.5 months exploring South America, and three months calling Madrid, Spain, his home. Kyle shares his journey of transitioning from a traditional corporate job to a travel-focused lifestyle. He reflects on how he reignited his travel dreams, embraced solo adventures, and built a life as a digital nomad. This episode is a great reminder to take the long-term view when it comes to your dreams. You'll learn actionable tips for overcoming fears, pitching remote work to your boss, creating meaningful connections on the road, and more. What does your ideal travel lifestyle look like? I'd love to hear about it, and I hope you'll share by sending me an audio message. Premium Passport: Get ad-free episodes, exclusive content, and access to all episodes for only $3/month.
