Rob and Kieran pull back the curtain on the massive, life-altering decisions that made them leave Ireland and the UK forever — and build a dramatically better life in Poland.
In this episode we go deep on:
- How Ireland’s record-breaking harsh lockdowns made Rob’s escape decision almost automatic
- Kieran’s “I’m just visiting” trip that turned into “I’m never going back”
- The honest 2025 reality: why day-to-day life in Poland (cost, safety, culture, freedom) now feels objectively superior
The exact decision-making frameworks we used to take the leap (and that you can use for any big move):
→ Jeff Bezos’ regret-minimization & one-way/two-way door decisions
→ Annie Duke’s “Thinking in Bets” mindset
→ Mel Robbins’ 5-4-3-2-1 rule to kill procrastination and indecision
→ Escaping the sunk cost fallacy (with painful stories of when they did)
→ Beating decision fatigue by habitualising and front-loading choices
→ How small daily decisions compound into a completely different life (Darren Hardy’s The Compound Effect)
If you’ve ever dreamed of moving abroad, feel stuck in your current country, or just want to make faster, higher-quality decisions—this episode is your playbook.
