LIFTing the Burden ft. Travis Parry

Once you hit the age of 50, would you look at your life and say “wow I have lived this life I’ve always dreamed about” or would you have regret, wishing you had done things differently? When Travis Parry’s dad passed away unexpectedly at the age of 49, it forced him to look at his life and his years ahead. Was he on track to live the life he always wanted? So he started some heavy research on parenting, finances, and psychology, and created a model for others to live without the burden of working too much or worrying about finances. He, his wife, and his 7 kids take 16 weeks off throughout the year to vacation. His own life is proof that his model works! Key Takeaways When parenting is in-sync and you both are on the same page financially, that stressor goes away. Once you boil everything down to your needs and wants, then you can prioritize where your money is going and know exactly how much you are going to spend. The LIFT model helps families or couples create a happy and balanced life. Key Moments {1:57} “It all just kind of hit me at that moment. Dad was able to become the person that he wanted to become. And I had this come to Jesus moment where I realized I wasn't where I needed to be.” {9:21} “I felt stuck and I got back into that mode where it was like, wow here I am again, nothing's going to change if I don't change literally everything. So, the first thing that we ended up changing was our financial situation.” {16:41} “When you have that freedom and you don't have the stress, it allows me to say, ‘yeah, I take Fridays off.’ I take 16 weeks off and we go travel the world with our kids and with my wife and do trainings or public speak, whatever it is that we're doing as we're traveling around. And we homeschool our kids.” More about Travis Dr. Travis G.
