Hi Mary! Love the "intentional" philosophy. That six-figure pivot is the dream so many here are chasing.
Where I currently live: I’m living full-time in my rig right here in Branson, Missouri.
Dreaming, planning, or actively preparing? I’m in the "Active Operations" stage. I’m the Operations Director at an RV park here in Branson, so I’m living the life while simultaneously managing the infrastructure for hundreds of other travelers. I’ve spent 20+ years building systems and platforms—from logistics and trucking to high-level operations—and now I’m applying that "system-first" mindset to the RV world.
What excites you most about RV life? The Community and the Freedom. There is a specific kind of "rugged" self-reliance that comes with this life. I love that your home is a tool that enables your lifestyle, not a weight that holds you down. I’m currently focused on developing the roadmaps that lead to true financial freedom while on the road, helping others transition into the nomad life without losing their primary source of security.
What's your biggest question or fear right now? My biggest focus is Scaling the Freedom. For many, RV life becomes a "job" of maintenance and constant troubleshooting. I’m constantly looking for ways to use tech and better systems to move from "reactive" survival to "proactive" living. My fear is seeing people quit this life because they didn't have the right "staging" or infrastructure in place before they hit the road.
Stoked to be here and learn from those of you who have been on the pavement for the long haul!
