life as a digital nomad w/ Tilly McConnell
Tuesday Sep 06, 2022
Tuesday Sep 06, 2022
#28. Welcome Tilly McConnell, a 28 years old digital nomad currently living in Portugal (soon to be Morocco) who started working online about a year ago, wanting more freedom to travel and experience the world, instead of being stuck behind a desk 8 hours a day, 5 days per week. She does a little bit of everything to make money while traveling but as of now she is a virtual assistant, social media manager, surf teacher and booking manager at a surf camp. I don’t know how she does it, but here she is thriving!
Throughout this episode, we talk about balancing work and life while traveling full time and how different life is as a digital nomad versus the average 9-5 life. Her biggest piece of advice that she would tell her younger self is to go with your intuition and don't care so much about what others have to say when it comes to what you decide to do with your life. Always remember that you can create any life you want for yourself and shouldn't let the judgement of others steer you away from your dreams!

#27. Welcome Christina Davis, digital nomad coach and host of The Crazy Nomad, who worked in corporate America for years until she realized that that lifestyle of working to live was just not for her. In 2019, she quit her job and moved to Bali, going after her dream of becoming a digital nomad.
Christina later started her own digital marketing business working with clients to grow their brands and started her own podcast to share her story and the story of many other digital nomads she had met along her travel journey. Her most recent passion project has been starting an online digital nomad community for travelers, digital nomads and remote workers to connect and grow together!
Throughout this episode, we talk all about the pros and cons and highs and lows of traveling full time and how its not always as glamorous as social media portrays it to be. With that said however, those who have a calling to travel or feel that that is something they aspire to do throughout their life, will see how all of the amazing experience and opportunities absolutely triumph the downsides of "living out of a suitcase".
