When the Money Says Yes, But the Soul Hesitates
In the final episode of Season 1, I share the surprising pivot that led me from the familiar comfort of Arizona to what felt like a second home — San Diego, California. From the jaw-dropping moment of being offered more money than expected to my wife’s bold plan of hopping Airbnbs until we were settled, I reflect on the hopeful start of a new chapter. But as you'll hear, chasing the "mighty dollar" wasn't without its cost. This episode sets the stage for Season 2, where the real journey begins: learning what we gain and lose in pursuit of opportunity.
