She explains how pet sitting became her gateway to location independence, the strategies she uses to secure sits around the world, and how her travels inspired her to create Traveling Catsitter, a community for cat-loving travelers. Nicole also discusses how she uses her freedom of movement as a “Nomadic Activist,” traveling to political battlegrounds to volunteer on grassroots campaigns, support progressive candidates, and explore the intersection of travel, civic engagement, and social impact. Along the way, she reflects on solo travel, digital nomadism, sustainability, community building, and the lessons she has learned from years of living without a permanent home. → Full show notes with direct links to everything discussed are available here. ============================ FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU: See my Top 10 Apps For Digital Nomads See my Top 10 Books For Digital Nomads See my 7 Keys For Building A Remote Business (Even in a space that’s not traditionally virtual) Watch my Video Training on Stylish Minimalist Packing so you can join #TeamCarryOn See the Travel Gear I Use and Recommend See How I Produce The Maverick Show Podcast (The equipment, services & vendors I use) ============================ ENJOYING THE S…
