#77: George shares how a chance coffee shop conversation led to uprooting his family (three kids, ages 11-13) and moving to a small Spanish village for what became a two-year adventure. From navigating bureaucracy and language barriers to watching his children courageously walk into Spanish schools, this episode explores what it takes to "run toward the roar" of our biggest fears.
Key Highlights:

The Catalyst: A networking conversation that became life-changing advice
Facing Fears: Professional uncertainty, family impact, and financial risk
Reality Check: The challenging first months and questioning their decision
Kid Courage: How children adapt and teach resilience to their parents
Unexpected Benefits: How the experience prepared them for COVID and virtual work

Memorable Quotes:
"What right do I have to be coaching these people if I'm constantly comfortable and haven't done much of a big change in my life?"
"Courage is not the absence of fear, it's having fear there but working your way through it."
"Your kids can do it. You can do it. And the adventure is there waiting for you."
Perfect For:

Anyone considering a major life change
Parents wondering how families navigate uncertainty
People looking for courage to face their fears
Those interested in international living experiences

Key Takeaway:
Sometimes the most transformative experiences come from running toward what scares us most - and our children might just be our best teachers in courage.
