Have you ever dreamed of quitting your job, selling your stuff, and traveling long-term? (and paying for flights ENTIRELY from travel hacking points?)

How about living and saving off of side-hustles? How about getting your blog featured in multiple news outlets, including Glamour magazine?

Today's episode was SO much fun; I got to sit and chat with some real-world friends of mine, Nate and Jess from RoundTheWorldCouple.com.

They're amazing people (and hilarious by the way), and I've been fortunate to follow their journey in real-time. This includes:

"stumbling" into local and national press coverage, driving massive traffic to their blog
Living minimally and crushing side hustles to save up $80k+ in 18 months
Travel hacking their way across the globe (literally. 25+ countries)

Nate and Jess are amazing, and I know you're going to enjoy their journey!

016 Why Chris left the American Dream to focus on blogging for a year [coaching session]

Shownotes and takeaways from today's episode can be found at http://doyouevenblog.com/podcast/chris

Chris (KeepThrifty.com) had a highly lucrative and secure career...which he just quit. To blog. For a year.

This episode is a bit different, as it's half interview, half coaching session.

We dig into

Why you DON'T need a blog coach
Why the FIRE model isn't for us ;-)
Tying our identities into our work
The circumstances to put in place BEFORE leaving your job to blog full-time
Chris and I hash out 3, 6, and 12 month goals, and put a strategy in place.

Special thanks to Chris for allowing me to be a part of his journey. I stand behind him 1,019% percent, and I know you'll get some value out of this episode as well!
