Designing a Goal Setting Weekend with Your Partner
Freedom Lifestyle
01/13/20 • 45 min
A few weeks ago, my partner and I carved out two full days to reflect, align and design our 2020 vision and beyond. We set personal, professional and relationship goals.
We laughed, argued, got uncomfortable and manifested clarity. We ended the weekend with a vision we felt aligned on and in this podcast episode share the template for success that worked for us.
I hope you don’t follow it perfectly. I hope hearing our experience is the inspiration and motivation you need to carve out the time and design an agenda on your “own terms” 😉.
Grab your lover, business bestie or make it all about you.
In this episode Sam and Jared discuss:
- Designing the agenda for a goal setting weekend
- Collecting an inventory of your 2019 wins
- Reflecting on key learnings from previous year
- Aligning on personal and relationship values
- Setting mantras for the new year
- Creating your 2020 intentions using 90 day sprints

Freedom Lifestyle

Buying a house doesn't mean giving up your freedom and we're going to prove it.
During Covid I got engaged and bought my first house. I had dreamt up these milestones millions of times throughout my life and never did I expect them to occur during a pandemic. It was a serious case of expectations versus reality.
I invited my new fiancé onto this episode to share:
- how we got a mortgage despite both being self-employed
- our process for aligning on our dream house together
- why we're moving to a small town with <20k people (Squamish, BC)
- whether my fiancé believes in soulmates 🤣

Selling Online Courses with @DigitalNomadGirl
Freedom Lifestyle
09/18/19 • 52 min
The travel bug is not a myth, folks! After returning from 4 months of backpacking, I was dead set on making this more than a one-time thing. I wanted to be a full-time digital nomad.
I'm sure you've been there. Scanning the world map, admiring your passport stamps and bookmarking Lonely Planet destinations.
With so much to see, the time to start feels like yesterday 😟
These desires drew me to today's podcast guest. Louise Croft (@digitalnomadgirl) has been working remotely and traveling the world for more than 5 years as a YouTuber and full-time teacher on Udemy!
I actually found her courses when looking for support in launching my own course - which btw went live this week! 😉
I instantly loved Louise and her approach to living FREE.
In this episode, Louise shared:
- How she quit her job and transferred her skills for online work
- What her life on the road looks like day to day
- The sacrifices she's made to pursue this lifestyle
- Tips for launching an online course of your own!
