FL 110 – Our Quit-iversary Special: 3 Years of Living The Flipped Lifestyle

Our journey wasn't the easiest one. The road we took to get to where we are now wasn't paved with just rainbows and sunshine. We did not rely on luck, there was no Magic Pill and we didn't have a "parachute" to bail us out if we failed… we are just simple folks who wanted to have more time to spend with our kids and live our lives to the fullest. It has now been 3 years since we left our regular nine-to-five jobs to become full-time online entrepreneurs, be our own boss for a change and have that freedom. We learned so much and we keep learning as we go through our daily responsibilities. You know what? Life has been so much more rewarding. All the risks we took and sacrifices we made eventually paid off. Sure, it gets difficult at times, but it's also such a gratifying experience to reach out and help so many people. We also get to enjoy our time with the kids, be there for them when they need us the most, it's how we knew that this was the right fit for us. Today is what we fondly call our "Quit-iversary," so we're going to celebrate this milestone by flipping this episode with our take on living the Flipped Lifestyle 24/7, talk about life and dive into very interesting and inspiring stuff.
