About this episode
Vicki James shares her journey of letting go of societal norms to embrace new opportunities and a nomadic lifestyle.
In this episode, we talk to Vicki James. She is resilient and a connector and supporter of others. Vicki lives in Spain. Vicki tells us about sitting on a comma after ending a career job in Manhattan. When faced with “what’s next”, Vicki was clear that she no longer wanted to live by the norms of others and decided to “let it all go”. By working through a process of values identification, alignment in her goals and navigating fear, she was able to make a major move across an ocean while starting a new business for herself. Her new nomad life allowed Vickie to reflect on who she is and who she wants to become. Tune in to hear what Vicki means when she says “I don’t need a lot”.
