Building an amazing life is just as important as building a thriving e-commerce store, and today we're talking about something that has made a huge impact in my life: splitting time between two different places. I was hesitant about doing an episode on this topic for a long time, but I decided to share for three reasons: the impact it has had, the questions I get asked about it, and the challenges that sometimes come along with it. So in this episode, I'm joined by two friends who also split their time, Danny and Pete, and we're talking about how to make living in two places work. You'll learn why they chose the cities they did, how to build a community, how to make it work when you have kids, and—of course—how to structure your finances to make it feasible. If you've ever dreamed of living in a new place and wonder what that could possibly look like, this is an episode you don't want to miss!
