Summary
Lucinda and Will Belden are living their dream by traveling full-time in an RV while running their publishing and event hosting businesses from their RV. They have learned to adapt to challenges, be more assertive and confident, and prioritize flexibility and transparency in their work arrangements.
Lucinda and Will Belden own and operate Direction Wide Open. They join Glynn to discuss their lifestyle of traveling full-time in an RV while running their business remotely. They share their experiences of overcoming obstacles such as technical issues with their equipment, poor internet connectivity, and the challenges of balancing work and personal life on the road.
They also discuss the importance of following one's passion and being willing to put oneself out there to receive feedback. They emphasize the need for assertiveness and confidence in demanding a fair rate for services provided.
GUEST BIO: Lucinda is a travel writer (retired travel agency owner) and Will is a full-stack computer programmer (not retired). They have been full-time RVers since 2019 and together they keep busy hosting RV events and rallies around the country, publishing articles for RV & motorcycle blogs as well as several books on Amazon.
