Have you ever wondered how to travel and work as a remote copywriter?

This week I speak with Rebecca Chant who is a remote copywriter and blogger behind Maybe This Way.

Before becoming a freelancer Rebecca was a dietician. Although she enjoyed her job, she knew she wanted to travel the world.

So, Rebecca quit her job and traveled solo for several years. After her journey ended she decided to come back to her job but soon realized that her career as a dietician wasn’t as fulfilling as she remembered.

The year she spent traveling made her realize that she wanted to continue to travel and be a writer.

Today she is doing just that! She and her husband have taken a leap to travel and work remotely but with a home base in Montreal, Canada.

Rebecca is a very special guest because she was the first listener to reach out and let us know how the podcast has helped her take the next step to be location independent.

Her story and courage to live the life she truly wants to live are so inspiring to me.

So, if the podcast has also helped you take the leap to a life you truly love make sure to send me a message at hello@theoffbeatlife.com. Who knows, I may feature and interview you as well.
