Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube

How do you create opportunities when the ones you seek don’t come through? In the first episode of my Master Flow series, I explore the journey of mastering life's flow and the power of self-empowerment, even in the face of setbacks.

Today, I explore my motivation behind launching this podcast as a platform to highlight extraordinary individuals who are redefining their lives abroad, showcasing their resilience and paths to fulfillment. We’ll discuss embracing diverse lifestyles, challenging conventional routes, and recognizing life's limitless possibilities. Join me to be inspired to challenge the status quo and dream boldly.

Mastering the Flow of Life

Welcome to the first episode of my Master Flow series! Today, I'm talking about mastering the flow of life and how this very podcast came to be—it's a perfect example of turning disappointment into opportunity.

Let me explain.

Two years ago, I was part of a mastermind group in America, where I was diving deep into sales and marketing for the digital world. My goal was to relaunch my business so I could serve a global audience and live anywhere I chose. During a meeting in Arizona, our mentor suggested that I launch a podcast as a powerful strategy for my business. He explained how a podcast could help gather people, showcase who I am, and create amazing content through interviews. It made perfect sense, and I was sold on the idea.

At the same time, he was launching his podcast and I was hoping that our mentor would feature us, his students, on his podcast. We were the perfect examples of the success his mentorship brought—ordinary people who had transformed and thrived, even during challenging times. It seemed like a win-win: we would share our stories, gain visibility, and he would showcase the real impact of his work.

But that wasn’t his strategy. He chose to interview already established figures with big followings, aiming to exchange audiences and grow his reach. While I understood his approach, I was still frustrated and disappointed. I wondered why he wasn't highlighting the incredible progress of his students.

This led me to the biggest lesson in life: when you don't get what you want, sometimes the best thing you can do is create it yourself. Instead of waiting for others to offer you a platform, build your own.

From that frustration, the idea for this podcast was born. I knew one day I was going to do it.

The Power of Infinite Possibilities

And that day finally came.

A few months ago, while planning my business, I realized it was time—I was ready. I wanted to speak, to share what I do with others, and to interview the incredible people I've met along my journey. These are ordinary people, just like me, living extraordinary lives. They’ve built businesses, transitioned through different phases of life, and navigated the challenges of living in foreign countries.

I knew this was the story I wanted to share with the world. These individuals may not have massive followings, but that's not the point.

This podcast is about creating a space for genuine, heart-to-heart conversations with amazing people who have inspired me. I hope these stories will inspire you too, to start creating a life you truly love.

When you listen to these stories from different cultures and places, you'll see that there's no single path to follow. Growing up, we were told to get a degree, a job, an apartment, a car, and then start a family. But that path never appealed to me. Moving abroad opened up a world of possibilities and showed me that there are countless ways to live a fulfilling life.

Whether you want to live in the tropics, in the mountains, by a lake, or split your time between countries, all of it is possible. I’ve seen people create lives that suit them perfectly, even with kids and partners. The key is finding the path that resonates with you.

The more you take the time to dream and envision your ideal life, the more you can make it happen.

I’ve done it, and so have many others, and that’s why I started this podcast. I believe that mastering life is the most satisfying journey we can embark on.
