Just a couple months ago, Katie and Billy Kim packed up their lives in New Jersey — two careers, two kids, and a mortgage — and moved to Korea.
To make it happen, they navigated a year-long project involving six trips to the South Korean consulate, an unexpected citizenship complication, a possible military draft, a cancer diagnosis, and ultimately, the realization that fear and inconvenience are the worst reasons to not make something happen.
Topic Highlights:
– Why Katie first shut down the idea of moving across the world – and what changed her mind
– The consulate saga that almost derailed everything
– The “excuse test”: how to tell whether something is a real constraint or just discomfort
– The three things the Kims agreed on before they even booked a flight and why most teams only get one of them right
– Why a shared “why” matters more than a perfect plan when things don’t go as expected
Guest Bio:
Katie Kim is a marketing executive and former VP of Global Marketing at MillerKnoll. Billy Kim is an independent investor and the family’s designated maverick.
