Is 2026 the year you finally run paid ads? Something shifted at DC Mexico this year — more founders than ever are seriously considering paid ads as their next acquisition channel. Between AI making creative cheaper to produce and competitive research easier to do, the barriers are lower than they've been. Max Sinclair has run a paid ads agency for eight years. In this episode he breaks down what actually works for founders spending under $30K a year — how to start, what to expect, and whether it's even worth it for your business. Plus: how Max used AI to turn his agency's internal tools into a product, and what that transition looks like in practice.

Dan and Ian are joined by Jeff Picaro of meetwingman.com to recap lessons from the DC Mexico event and share five trends for 2026 in bootstrapped, location-independent businesses. In this episode: • Why organic traffic is rebounding and how legacy publishers can compound results via Google, LLMs, and AI repurposing • Why companies with strong SOPs and systems are translating fastest to AI-enabled workflows and higher margins (especially agencies) • How org charts may shift from pyramids to circular, data-centered “hive mind” models with new technical and client-facing roles • Why many founders who started with AI-driven layoffs are rehiring as capacity and demand expand • Why bootstrappers should consider going upmarket, raising contract value, and pursuing bigger customers and deals.

What happens when an American content creator discovers a hidden winter workation village in Bovec after clicking on a random Instagram ad? Why would a Spanish digital nomad leave Madrid and Budapest behind for life in Ljubljana? And why did a Slovenian entrepreneur living in Barcelona decide to return home just as Slovenia launched its new digital nomad visa?In the first-ever video episode of Feel Slovenia The Podcast, host Dr. Noah Charney sits down with three digital nomads whose personal stories reveal a different side of Slovenia — one that goes far beyond postcard images of Lake Bled. Guests include American travel creator Ben Herskowitz, who spent the winter living in Bovec as part of a rural digital nomad community; Fernando Cantero, a Spanish remote worker who found in Slovenia the perfect balance between mountains, nature, safety, and quality of life; and Dino Kovačević, founder of WorkFromSlovenia.si, who offers insight into Slovenia's growing digital nomad ecosystem and the impact of the country's new digital nomad visa launched in November 2025. Together, they discuss everything from coworking spaces and bureaucracy to hidden alpine villages, local traditions, and the surprisingly strong sense of community foreigners can find in Slovenia.More than just a conversation about remote work, the episode explores why Slovenia is increasingly attracting people searching for something many destinations have lost: authenticity, connection to nature, slower living, and genuine human interaction. From Ljubljana and Maribor to Bovec, Triglav National Park, and lesser-known corners of the country, the episode paints a vivid portrait of Slovenia through the eyes of foreigners who unexpectedly found a place that feels like home. Feel Slovenia the Podcast is brought to you by the Slovenian Tourist Board and hosted by Dr Noah Charney.For more inspirational content, check out www.slovenia.info and our social media channels, including Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn and Tripadvisor.

Guest BioMark Phillips is the Founder of Nomad Stays, a platform created to help digital nomads find comfortable, reliable accommodations built for long-term remote work and travel. A tech-driven entrepreneur and global business leader, Mark has spent years building ventures and relationships at the intersection of technology, hospitality, and international travel.Across an entrepreneurial career spanning tech and travel, Mark has explored more than 100 countries and developed an unusually broad global network—connecting with everyone from local traders in remote regions to senior business and government leaders. That experience has shaped his understanding of what modern travelers need when they're living and working on the road.Since 2015, Mark has lived as a full-time digital nomad, running businesses while traveling continuously and relying on remote collaboration as the norm. Through Nomad Stays, he's focused on making long-term travel feel more stable and livable by helping nomads find spaces that support productivity, comfort, and a genuine sense of home.Show SummaryIn this episode of the Big World Made Small Adventure Travel Podcast, host Jason Elkins speaks with Mark Phillips about the fast-growing digital nomad lifestyle and the hospitality gaps that many remote workers encounter when they travel long-term.Mark shares what inspired him to create Nomad Stays and why traditional short-stay accommodations often miss the mark for nomads who need reliable Wi-Fi, functional workspaces, and the comforts that make a place feel livable for weeks or months at a time. He also explains how longer stays change pricing, expectations, and the kinds of services that hosts should consider offering.The conversation goes beyond logistics into the lifestyle itself—how technology enables full-time travel, why community matters when you're constantly on the move, and what it takes to stay adaptable and healthy while building a location-independent life around the world.

Dan and Ian just got back from DC Mexico — 4 days in Mexico City with 200 founders, a third of whom run $1M+ businesses. Three ideas worth sitting with: Reading about something is useful. Watching someone implement it is better. Doing it yourself, beside someone else doing it too, is where things get real. Networking gets a bad reputation — and maybe it deserves it. But sharing a real experience with someone who's solving the same problems you are? That's where trust gets built. And trust, right now, might be the most valuable thing a founder can have. In this episode: • Why reading and podcasts only get you so far • What made the DC Mexico AI Build Lab different from any workshop they've attended • The difference between networking and shared experience (and why it matters) • How the attention economy is shifting — and what's replacing it • How to get the most out of any room you're in Thanks to this week's sponsor Wayfront — the AI-ready operating system for productized agencies.

Greetings Glocal Citizens! This week on the podcast it's an NYU affair with a side of Columbia University, Harvard University and UCLA. I first met my guest as fellow New York University students/alumni in the late 1990's, at a time when slam poetry was beginning to reaching global audiences with influences from hip hop music and other activist movements. Fast foward after more than 20 years to earlier this spring when our paths crossed again at an event hosted by fellow Glocal Citizen and Director of NYU Accra, Chiké Frankie Edozien - The Labone Dialogues. Bryonn is a poet, actor, prison activist, playwright, scholar, author, hip hop artist and professor of African American Studies, Theater, Film & Television, and World Arts & Cultures in the School of the Arts and the School of Law at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA). Playing over 40 characters, his one-man show, LYRICS FROM LOCKDOWN, won “Best Solo Performance” from the LA Weekly and the NAACP. Executive produced by the late and great, Harry Belafonte, the show tells stories of wrongful incarceration through spoken word poetry, hip hop theater, calypso, comedy and classical music. He founded the Prison Education Program at UCLA in 2015 and in 2019, the program and his performances at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts were featured on the debut episode of LA Stories, which won an Emmy Award. His work has been featured on a diverse range of stages including the Apollo Theater, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, The Public Theater (NYC), National Black Theatre (Harlem), NJ PAC, The Actor's Gang Theater (Culver City), Los Angeles Theater Center (LATC), Festival de Liege (Belgium), M-1 Theater Festival (Singapore), Universidad de las Americas (Mexico) and Muteesa Royal University (Uganda), Rikers Island (New York), Marion Prison (Ohio), TEDX at Ironwood State Prison and Sing Sing Prison. He has performed at over 250 colleges and prisons in the U.S., Africa, Asia, Latin America and Europe. And soon in Ghana!

Naming a person is a challenge—but one Melbourne family has made their relatives compete for the privilege of a surname. This week Monz, Stacey and Amelia are talking about the Melbourne couple who settled their surname debate with a best-of-three rock-paper-scissors showdown. So, should we be making all family decisions via a game of competitive Jenga from now on? Plus, the school holiday rule that has parents feeling like they’re back in detention. Amelia shares the enormous effort she poured into an official essay just to take her kids overseas, as we debate if ‘world schooling’ is a genius move or just a recipe for burnout. Also, it’s the show that saved our collective sanity, but behind the scenes, Bluey is the focus of a billion-dollar financial mess. We dive into the trending story and explain the details the internet seems to be missing. And, why does Mother’s Day feel a little bit… off? We’re looking into the unexpected history of the holiday and why it’s okay if you’re feeling more ‘complicated’ than ‘celebratory’ this Sunday. Reccos Amelia recommends Caper Crew; as if The InBESTigators was directed by Wes Anderson. Monz is loving the ‘Parental Path’ video hack to capture your kids’ little voices before they grow up, plus it's a great last-minute Mother's Day gift. Stacey recommends the ‘Do It For Dolly’ campaign and the 13-DOLLY support line for any families navigating the gut-punch of school bullying. If you or anyone you know is struggling and needs to speak with an expert, please contact your GP or in Australia, contact Lifeline (13 11 14), Kids Helpline (1800 55 1800) or Beyond Blue (1300 22 4636), all of which provide trained counsellors you can talk with 24/7.

In this interview from the 2026 IHIF EMEA conference, CoStar News Hotels' Terence Baker speaks with Navneet Bali, founder and CEO of LyvInn Hotels, who explains his goal of gearing his hostel-hotel brand toward the growing number of young, IT-savvy European travelers.

We have Daniel Schlagwein on the show, who is what Germans call a "Tausendsassa:" He is both a practitioner and researcher of digital nomadism, the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Information Technology, and president of the AIS special interest group on Grounded Theory Methodology. We touch upon all three of these aspects, but at the core we want to know from Daniel whether generative AI tools are automating grounded theory and thereby eliminate what used to be at the heart of a humanistic and constructionist approach to doing research – or are they merely leveling the playing field for qualitative field researchers by giving them computational support matching those tools that quantitative researchers have had for a long time. Daniel argues that it depends on the specific flavor of the grounded theory method you are using to determine whether and how you can leverage generative AI for such research.

Remote work permits often trip the tax residency threshold that make nomads pay more tax than they had predicted. Your foreign income, taxed once at home, becomes fair game locally as well. But a small group of digital nomad visas sidesteps this rule entirely through one of four mechanisms, and IMI's latest video covers 15 of them.Read the full article here.

Most founders already know what's wrong with their business. The fix is usually simple but scary. So instead of doing the one hard thing that would make everything else easier, they stay busy. It feels like progress. It isn't. In this episode, Dan walks through the 7 questions he uses in $1,000/hour coaching calls — the ones that make the real problem impossible to ignore. And he shows you how to run the same audit on your own business using AI as your thinking partner. In this episode: • The simple but scary problems that show up in almost every business • Why most founders are spending money on 'hopeful outcomes' — and how to stop • The pricing question that reveals whether you actually believe in what you're selling • How to use AI as a founder (hint: context first, questions second) • What does your answer to 'how would you 2x in 90 days?' reveal about your business Resources mentioned: The 7-Question Business Audit The Complete Business Diagnostic More Business Resources Upcoming DC Events Tropical MBA is a podcast for entrepreneurs building location-independent businesses.

SHOW NOTESThis episode covers a Financial Times report on the European Commission recommending at least one compulsory remote working day per week to reduce energy demand. The proposal sits within a broader package responding to high energy prices linked to geopolitical tensions. Alongside remote work, measures include public transport subsidies, tax changes, and support for electrification technologies. The episode focuses on how this shifts remote work from a cultural choice to an operational tool for businesses, with direct implications for scheduling, office use, and workforce planning across Europe in the coming months.SOURCES https://www.ft.com/content/bbc9c31e-cc43-41a6-8fb7-057d44b25a21?syn-25a6b1a6=1Looking for Remote Work?Click here remoteworklife.io to access a private beta list of remote jobs in sales, marketing, and strategy — plus get podcasts, real-world tips and business insights from founders, CEOs, and remote leaders. subscribe to my free newsletter Connect on LinkedIn

teenagers, and full-time digital nomad traveling the world with his family.Eric shares how a simple idea to try life on the road turned into four years of full-time travel across more than 50 homes and multiple countries, all while running businesses remotely and homeschooling their kids along the way.But this conversation goes way beyond travel.Rodric and Eric dive into digital marketing, leadership, hiring, remote teams, entrepreneurship, and why your leadership capacity ultimately determines the capacity of your business, your family, and your life.This is a conversation about freedom, yes — but more than that, it's about building the systems, leadership, and courage required to actually live the life you say you want.In this episode, you'll hear:How Eric and his family

and runs a digital marketing agency while traveling full-timeWhy local SEO still matters for small businessesHow Eric's coaching business evolved from lead generation into leadershipWhy leadership capacity determines business capacityThe framework Eric teaches for hiring and leading remote teamsWhat being a “first-time customer” in 55 different places taught him about marketingHighlights &

Eric introduces himself as a digital marketing agency owner, coach, nonprofit founder, husband, father of four, and full-time digital nomad.[02:00] Why travel became the lifestyle Eric shares how a conversation about camper-van life eventually turned into a three-month test run in Istanbul — and then a full-time family adventure.[03:00] Selling almost everything and hitting the road Eric explains how they made the leap, what changed, and why the family decided they wanted to keep going.[04:00] What it really costs to travel the world as a family Eric breaks down the practical side of

customers through websites, SEO, and reviews.[08:00] Why home builders are a different marketing animal Eric and Rodric talk about why marketing for builders is very different from typical local service businesses.[08:00] How Eric's coaching business began Eric shares how people kept asking how he built his lifestyle and business, which led him first into lead generation coaching.[09:00] Why lead generation wasn't the real issue Eric explains how he discovered that clients could get leads but still got stuck because they had no team, systems, or leadership infrastructure.[10:00]

coaching business.[14:00] A question for the next guest Eric asks what the version of themselves 10 years from now would want them focused on today.[15:00] The book that helped Eric implement growth Eric shares the book that most impacted his business execution and planning: The 4 Disciplines of Execution.[16:00] What travel taught Eric about marketing Eric reflects on how becoming a “full-time first-time customer” changed the way he sees local business marketing.[17:00] The email capture lesson most businesses still miss Eric explains why not collecting customer emails is one of the biggest marketing mistakes local businesses make.Notable Quotes“Your leadership capacity is the capacity of your business, your life, your family.” – Eric Dingler“Lead better, you'll live better.” – Eric

Aaron Anderson runs a link building agency — 8 years in, fully remote, team of 10. A year ago, his business was in negative growth. He decided to go all-in on AI and hired an agency to rebuild his systems. He paid them nearly $40,000. They delivered nothing he could use. While waiting on that agency, he started tinkering with Claude Code. Then he started building. Then he realized he was building better than they were. Today Aaron walks us through what he's actually built, what it's made and saved him, and his answer to the biggest question in our inbox right now: what do I actually do with this thing? Tactics include: automating the work you'd otherwise hire a VA for, rebuilding legacy tools without a developer, and the mindset shift from "what can I do with AI?" to "what can't I do?"

She was one of the baddies who showed up on this show back in 2021 — and four years later, Vanessa Wachtmeister is back and she is NOT the same woman. She's paid off $130,000 in debt, earned her German passport, and is about to launch her second tech startup.
