In this solo episode, Kristin clarifies the common myths, misconceptions, and possibilities around digital nomadism, location independence, and remote work, related to:
* Required tech skills
* Quitting your job
* Traveling and cost of travel
* Freelancing
* Passive income
* Job titles
* Entrepreneurship
* Digital nomad “trendiness”
We also discuss:
* The various categories and types of remote workers.
* How to break through the perceived limitations of a location-independent lifestyle.
* How the self-imposed labels and stereotypes of “digital nomads” are unfounded and unnecessarily hold people back from going remote.
Digital nomadism is a dynamic, ever-evolving mindset. It’s not a fixed destination or identity. For all intents and purposes, it doesn’t matter what your job title is, how you support yourself, or where you fall along the digital nomad spectrum - we are all helping to define digital nomadism for ourselves. And that’s okay.
