Retiring Early Saved My Life.
And after two years of living abroad, I’m finally ready to talk about why.
I’m sharing the deeper, more vulnerable realities of what early retirement abroad taught me — about burnout, identity, safety, rest, and the hidden costs of living in the U.S. as a Black American.
I’m also revealing the lessons that changed me the most… the ones I didn’t see coming… and the ones I believe could change someone else’s life too.
If you’re curious about early retirement, moving abroad, or simply imagining a life where you’re not constantly in survival mode, this conversation will give you a lot to reflect on.
