Today we are talking with Erica Hackman from The Nomadic Network who is also the owner of Decoding Online Dating. Erica and I go back a few years and she is one of my favorite people to talk to and it always seems like once we are together, we can spend hours upon hours talking about travel, and business, and even get into some deep topics effortlessly.   On this episode, we are getting into how people can ebb & flow from your life depending on the season you are currently in, why being comfortable being you can help you navigate your seasons of life, and how looking at your future through a lifestyle lens can make it less daunting and overwhelming. I adore our conversations and I am always learning and gaining so much great advice from my time talking with Erica.   When you look at the next 5 years from a lifestyle lens instead of a purely business mindset, what does it look like for you?  Let us know over on Instagram! Guest Bio Erica is the Director of Nomadic Matt's community: The Nomadic Network. After living around the world for years in places like Zambia, St Vincent, South Korea, Qatar, Costa Rica, and rural Thailand, Erica met Nomadic Matt and began her decade-long career working with a huge budget travel website that gets over 1.5 million readers each month. She's worked from my laptop for extended periods of time in Vietnam, Cambodia, Dubai, Costa Rica, the UK, South Africa, and Ghana. Her love for meeting people translated well when it came to building The Nomadic Network. Over the last 3 years, Erica and Nomadic Matt have created a thriving community that hosts in-person and virtual events that connect travelers to people and resources that get them traveling cheaper, better, longer, and more!
