Across several episodes, I have been trying to organize my thoughts regarding what I've been able to do over the last couple of decades to set myself up for success.  I have spent a lot of time trying to figure these things out, and a number of major struggles were holding me back along the way. Tune in to hear me break down how I overcame three major obstacles to pave the way for success in my personal and professional lives.

CONCLUSION

There you have it, the 3 massive things I had to overcome in my life before I really was able to become successful. As you can tell from this episode, nothing has come easy for me in life, but I don’t talk about how I’ve overcome these struggles in order to brag. Rather, I hope that you’ll be able to learn from my experiences and perhaps skip a few of the mistakes I made along the way in identifying exactly what was holding me back. If you get value out of this episode, please feel free to share it with a friend. See you next Wednesday!

Into The Amazon—Then Straight To The Beach

This year, I’m taking a private group into the Amazon rainforest—then we head to Fortaleza and explore Brazil’s booming Northeast coast. Think Amazon river cruises, beachfront developments, and wide-open opportunity. From the heart of the rainforest to pristine beaches most people only dream about—this is bucket-list meets Plan-B strategy. If you’ve ever wanted to see the real Brazil and scout investments along the way, this is it. Go to ExpatMoney.com/Brazil.
