Today, I'm interviewing Bella , a client of mine with an incredible journey. She went from a corporate job earning $140,000 a year to building her own business and creating a life on her terms.
Fast forward just one year after joining the Digital Nomad Life Academy, and she's recording this podcast from Spain, her new home. She's built a thriving business, has clients coming in from multiple channels, and is truly living the life she once dreamed about.
She's running her dream business, she's a full-time entrepreneur, and I'm so excited for her to share her story.
In this episode, Bella shares how she went from where she was—which might be exactly where you, the listener, are right now—to where she is today.
If you've ever dreamed of quitting your 9-to-5, becoming a digital nomad, finding remote work abroad, or moving to Spain, this conversation is packed with lessons on entrepreneurship, resilience, and trusting the path that's calling you.
In This Episode, We Discuss:
- Why Bella quit a corporate career earning $140K per year
- What it was really like getting paid to travel while feeling unfulfilled
- The hidden challenges of remote work and living abroad
- How losing her remote job became the catalyst for entrepreneurship
- The reality of building a business from zero clients
- How she moved to Spain multiple times and eventually secured Spain's Digital Nomad Visa
- Why your life experience may be more valuable than your professional experience
- The mindset shifts required to become a digital nomad entrepreneur
- How to build a business around knowledge you've gained through real-life experience
- What entrepreneurship actually looks like behind the scenes
