Building a Bucketlist Business

In 2007, I spent six weeks in a hostel in the middle of Guatemala just “because”.Truly, I’d never felt so free.The two years prior had been spent working like a donkey, with good people but in a field I hated.The endgame? Admission to the Supreme Course of Queensland as a lawyer.It was an accolade I spent 7 years working towards..Only to quit, 6-weeks to the day later. And so, there I found myself in a computer shop in Puerto Escondido, Mexico, on a steaming April afternoon checking my emails when my brothers friend messaged us on Facebook.“Wanna come visit?” – he wrote, “I’m just down the road in Guatemala!”We looked at each other.Of course we would. It wasn’t even a QUESTION.We were free. The world was our oyster. And we could do anything, be anyone, go anywhere!And so it came to be that I ended up spending the best, most carefree, most FUN 6-weeks of my life living out of a backpack in a dingy hostel dorm room in Antigua.Acutely aware that I had opted out of life for a little minute, and feeling grateful as heck for it.Five years later, I started my online business chasing that kind of freedom again.And on the surface, the promise of it all felt..  intoxicating.Time freedom – to work when I wanted!Location freedom – to go back to Central America, or London, or ANYWHERE BUT HERE!Financial freedom – to make more than a doctors wages working on the goddamn INTERNET!I wanted it.The sense of adventure.The possibility.The wonder that came from not knowing what would come next.The Tuesday afternoons spent outside (and not in an air-conditioned cubicle)ALL OF IT.🍊 Rinse and Repeat has just been added to Lifestyle Business School!  This is the ultimate collection of every live launch and promotion under the sun.
