Today’s guest is a sought after speaker and thought leader on lifestyle freedom, Ryan Moran. He specializes in helping others build lifestyle businesses for themselves, and for those unfamiliar, lifestyle business has become the term for a business that supports the lifestyle you want to live rather than one demanded by the business. So, there’s a natural relationship there for travelers aspiring to build a business that supports a lifestyle of travel.

This is a business heavy episode, but listen to Ryan’s beliefs on why travel not only matters but is a duty. He asks and explores the big questions he was faced with when, one day, his friend called him out on his sheltered upbringing and said, “We need to get you a new continent.” Ryan quickly came to realize that he wanted to be an Explorer, to inform himself of the complexities of the world, so he could better understand the place in which he desired to make a lasting impact.

Explorer Quotes

“I couldn’t understand the world until I got out of my own world, and went to a place that was really uncomfortable for me.”

“How are we ever going to make this world a better place if we don’t understand each other?”
