If you love travel and pursuing your passions, you’ll love this episode! Back in 2016, Celinne Da Costa took a huge leap of faith: she left her unfulfilling corporate life in New York City behind to design the life she wanted from scratch.

Instead she yearned for a lifestyle that allowed her to travel, write, and share meaningful experiences with others. […]

On today’s podcast we’re speaking with Kim and Ryan Desmond who run CodingNomads, which teaches intensive software development courses around the world.

However, Ryan’s expertise with in-demand coding skills, Kim’s chops in marketing, and the couple’s combined dream to help people worldwide learn skills […]

In this episode, we’ve flipped the tables and I’m the one being interviewed by my friend and new OpenWorld podcast co-host, Lloyd Hester. Sometime ago, Lloyd and I connected on Facebook and connected instantly as fellow entrepreneurs, global nomads, and kindred spirits.

Despite natural gifts, we always seemed to be the troublemakers, the […]

In this interview I have the […]
