149: Achieving the Beach Lifestyle Through Online Work – Marisa Meddin

Today’s guest on the Expat Money Show is Marisa Meddin, co-founder of ‘Beach Commute’. She is a career coach and has been a digital nomad for over 5 years, visiting more than 60 countries. At Beach Commute they help other Digital Nomads figure out what remote job opportunities exist, which they're best suited to do, where to find remote job opportunities, how to increase chances of a job offer, and how to tactfully negotiate remote terms.  

WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW:

• Why listening and working with a professional career coach that has been there, the same as you, can be the most powerful step you can take towards freedom and getting the job you have always dreamed of while travelling around the world.
• Exactly how to achieve your dreams of working & world travel….and how to crush your limiting belief patterns.
• Step-by-step instructions on how to ask your boss for a big fat raise to live as a digital nomad in any country you choose.
• A common myth about how to work from abroad. This is an important concept to always understand.
• One key concept you must understand about human behaviour that can lead you to amazing growth and becoming a confident individual.
• What happens when you figure out what remote job opportunities exist, which you're best suited to do, where to find remote job opportunities, how to increase chances of a job offer, and how to tactfully negotiate remote terms. 
• What happens after the boss says yes, you can work remotely!
• And what if your boss says 'no', you can’t work remotely and you have no idea what to do or say!
• And finally, listen in to Marisa & Mikkel talking about some of the countries they have visited and their true love of travel and why they are so passionate about their adventures.

Join Me In Panama For Our Next Tour

I have great news. After many meetings and explanations, the Panamanian government has agreed to keep the Investors Visa at a $300k Real Estate investment instead of nearly doubling the amount required, as they said they would. This is a massive win for our community who wants to move to or invest in Panama, but I am not sure how long this will last… If you have been thinking about Panama, then I want to make an invitation to you today. Come join me for a special four-day tour to see if the country I call home is right for you and your family. We have just released the next set of trip dates. You can find out more at ExpatMoney.com/fly. Come visit me and the Expat Money team, get a feel for the country and see if Panama makes sense for investment or as a new home.
