There was a time when I couldn’t afford a McDonald’s meal.

It was 2012, I had recently started a graphic design business so I could work online and travel the world but... clients weren’t exactly knocking down my digital door (aka. inbox), so money was tight. Really tight.

My friend and I were in town when she said she wanted to go to McDonald’s. Not wanting to tell her I couldn't afford it, I followed her in and got in line. I was SURE my card would decline and I didn’t want my friend to see, so I told her I had forgotten my purse and asked if she could pay for my lunch and I'd pay her back.

Fast forward to now and things are wildly different.

• I built a six figure business working three days a week and traveling the world.

• I saved £110k+ in my twenties.

• I have the time and financial freedom to travel for 3-6 months a year. (I’ve lived in New York, Seoul, Central America, London and traveled to over 17 other countries.)
