But what if it’s actually one of the most intentional financial decisions you can make? Kesi Irvin walked away from a high-powered finance career in New York City after saving for two years to fund her dream of traveling the world.

What started as a round-the-world trip turned into more than a decade of long-term travel across 84 countries and completely reimagined her way of living, working, and earning. We break down what it really takes to plan a round-the-world trip, including how much money you actually need, how to build a travel fund , and how to make money while traveling once your savings run out.

If you’ve ever wondered whether long-term travel is financially possible, this episode will show you how to start designing your own path.
