Alicia Simms on the Freedom of Adjusting to Less

Episode 56

On this Episode of Fulfillment Equation

This month we’re kicking off our deep dive exploration into Fulfillment Concept #3: Finding Freedom. As my first guest for this topic, I’m thrilled to welcome entrepreneur and star of the TV series “Trailer Travels”, Alicia Simms! Together we discuss freedom in work, location freedom and adjusting to less (working less, having less, spending less). Alicia talks about how she decreased her monthly living costs and how it has opened up so many more opportunities. As she describes, instead of spending money on utilities, they’re now spending that money on incredible travel adventures.

We also touch on how time is our most precious asset and how the changes you make don’t need to be dramatic. “Small ripples can lead to big waves”, as Alicia says. You don’t have to disrupt everything you know; just make little changes that move the needle towards the direction you want to be heading.

Plus, of course, we talk about RV living and travel!

Finally, we build Alicia’s equation: 14pp + 6e + 5W + 7f + 3(→7)r + 14s + 7tv + T + ss
