Over the last decade, the FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement has reshaped the conversation. And it’s not just about money — though money is the mechanism. At its best, FIRE is about reclaiming time, autonomy, and alignment. It’s about front loading effort and intention so that, sooner than expected, you can step into a life that feels deeply your own.

​I recently had the chance to speak with Jason and Daravy, a couple who retired in their 30s. They didn’t do it through flashy investments or lucky breaks — they did it by making thoughtful trade-offs, living below their means, and steadily building a life that matched their values.

In the latest episode of the Range of Change podcast, my brilliant co-coach Alison and I went from hosts to guests. We stepped behind the mic to share something deeply personal and professionally thrilling: the new and improved group coaching experience we’re launching this July. It’s a curated, hands-on, high-impact container for women ready to design—and commit to—a meaningful change in their lives. I hope you’ll tune in tomorrow to hear all about it!

And here’s the news: We’re inviting a small group of people to join the pilot cohort for free.

That’s right. The full experience, no shortcuts. In return, we ask for your full presence, honest feedback, and commitment to the process. Because we’re building something extraordinary—and we want it to change your life while we refine it.

I recently took an incredible trip, and it's got me thinking deeply about the power of travel, not just as a break, but as a catalyst for personal growth. Today, I want to dive into two key themes that really stood out to me: embracing a novice mindset and building resilience.

Think about it: when you travel, you're stepping into the unknown. You're navigating unfamiliar streets, trying new foods, and maybe even struggling with a different language. It's a crash course in being a beginner again. And that, my friends, is a beautiful thing - It might even be the intellectual fountain of youth!

Travis is a seasoned expatriate and humanitarian worker whose life has been defined by bold transitions and embracing the unknown. His journey from the United States to New Zealand, and many more travels beyond, is not just a story of relocation—it’s a masterclass in navigating change with intentionality, adaptability, and courage.

As a change coach, I see a lot of transferable and even learn-able skills in the experience Travis shares for making a successful life shift.

Recently, I had a fascinating conversation with Sarah, an artist, teacher, and community leader who embodies a truly balanced and deeply fulfilling life.

Sarah is in the retirement age range, but unlike many who eagerly embrace more leisure time—travel, pickleball, and afternoons with no agenda—she finds immense purpose in continuing to do what she loves. Her work is not just a job; it’s an integral thread in the rich tapestry of her life.

She creates art, both for herself and on commission. She collaborates on public projects, working alongside organizations, leaders, and fellow artists to bring creative visions to life to benefit the entire community. She teaches, mentoring young artists and watching them evolve over the years. She is deeply engaged in her community. And on top of it all, she enjoys a vibrant personal life filled with friendships, family, faith, and hobbies.

Her story is a powerful reminder that balance isn’t about rigidly dividing time—it’s about aligning our life’s elements in a way that sustains us.
