In today's episode, I had the honor of sitting down with my great friend, David Osborn. Most people know David as a real estate powerhouse and co-founder of GoBundance, but to me, he's also a man of deep purpose, adventure, and love for his family. Our conversation dives into the moments that shaped David's journey—from growing up on military bases to leading bucket-list adventures for his tribe. He also shares a life-changing story of traveling to Nepal with his son, Luke, to volunteer at an orphanage—an experience that revealed the true meaning of wealth and legacy. We cover: Parenting and Travel: How traveling with children cultivates empathy, gratitude, and leadership. David's Wild Childhood Adventures: Hitchhiking through the UK at 14 and learning resilience at a tough boarding school. Teaching Kids Gratitude: Why David brought his son Luke to Nepal and the life-changing impact it had on both of them.

There are advantages to hosting corporate travelers in your short-term rentals. You get high-quality guests. You can offer a number of upsells. And capitalize on referrals and repeat business. But you may have to level up your game in order to attract these high-paying corporate clients. So, what amenities do you need to offer business travelers? What level of service do they expect? And how do you market your Airbnbs to the corporate travel niche? Robertin Nunez is the STR corporate travel specialist behind LivingQuarters.net, a platform that connects short-term rental hosts with business travelers. With headquarters in Philadelphia and Miami, Robertin owns 100 in-house units and operates 3,200 listings in 12 cities around the world.

Daniel Galhardo discovered the Japanese method of fly fishing called “Tenkara” while researching the fishing culture of Japan. After realizing how effective it was not only for fishing but for backpacking and backcountry travel, he decided to Introduce Tenkara to the United States and has been successfully doing so for over 10 years.I wanted to have Daniel on to talk about fly fishing in the backcountry, but I ended up getting so much more than that. He has an incredible way of explaining things and is willing to dive into topics that create the foundation of our experiences in the backcountry. You don't have to be interested in fly fishing to enjoy this episode because there's so much great thought that Daniel brings to this episode that we could probably have a full length one just on backcountry philosophy.For those interested in experiencing the backcountry in a new way, you're going to enjoy this episode with Daniel of Tenkara USA!AUDIENCE DISCOUNT!!!FOR A LIMITED TIME audience members can receive 20% off Tenkara USA products by calling Tenkara USA at 1-888-483-6527 AND referencing The By Land Podcast.

Boundaries don't usually sound like fun (unless you get a thrill from breaking rules, in which case more power to you). But for the majority of us, especially those with a desire to travel, boundaries can kind of sound like a drag. Which is why when Dani Reyes-Acosta, a long-time road traveler and remote brand strategist, shares how learning to set boundaries for herself has actually been a key factor in her continued growth and even aided in her repeated decisions to say yes to travel-- well, we were pretty much hooked.From what she learned driving a sedan around Mexico, to why she travels solo even though she has a partner, Dani's stories show the liberating side of creating boundaries.About Dani:Dani Reyes-Acosta is a brand strategist, creative consultant, and everyday adventurer with a serious penchant for fresh foods (but an equally serious pizza problem).Calling 6 countries and 6 western US states "home" since graduating from corporate life in 2014, she chases snow, rock, and surf adventure as a means to drive her personal and spiritual growth, finding origin, identity, and community in wild spaces.As a digital nomad and founder of the Nomad Creativa brand strategy collective, she helps brands evolve to and public workshops that support a healthy future for public lands, public health, and community well-being.While Nomad Creativa is her channel for professional creativity, her project, Not Lost, Just Discovering, provides an outlet for stories of heritage, adventure, and the journey within.In this episode, you'll hear:Where Dani has traveled, and what got her started in the first placeWhy she prefers slow travelHow travel helped Dani find healing from traumaWhat creating boundaries has done for her travels, and beyondHow Dani feels about traveling solo now that she has a partnerThe importance of finding balance when it comes to compassionHow taking things one step at a time is often the best approachResources mentioned in this episode:Follow Dani on Instagram - @notlostjustdiscoveringDani's website - Dani Reyes-AcostaNomad Creativa and on Instagram: @nomadcreativaJoin the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Sponsor Websites & PromotionsThe Trip PodcastEnjoy this episode?

Today's interview is with Cepee Tabibian. Born a citizen of the world to a Colombian mother and Iranian father in West Virginia, Cepee spent all but 9 months of her childhood growing up in the Lone Star State and proudly considers herself a Native Texan. Although her parents were from South America and the Middle East, her passion for travel didn’t start until high school when she befriended a group of foreign exchange students. Convincing her traditional Iranian father to let her travel solo to the Netherlands for her 17th birthday was no easy feat. Little did they know that his support of her trip to visit a friend would become the most pivotal moment in her life. Her first trip abroad prompted a deep and magical love affair with travel and self-exploration that continues till this day, 21 years later. In our interview, we discussed the following:What sparked her desire to travelHo women over 30 can break free from a life of routine and start a life of travelHow to start working remotelyLiving Abroad and as a Multicultural AmericanInfo about She Hit Refresh, the online community she created to support women over 30 who want to move abroadResources Mentioned In The PodcastShe Hit RefreshShe Hit Refresh Facebook Group See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

According to a travel survey, couples who travel together have better relationships than those who don't. In this episode, three couples share their thoughts on what makes their relationship work while on the road. And we also talk to a couple who rode from Alaska to Ushuaia on a quest to find out what was the secret behind couples who remained married or partnered for a long time. They talk about their experiences with the Ural, the people they met and what they learned about relationships. Travel & How it Affects Relationships In 2012, the U.S. Travel Association conducted a survey to find out if and how much pleasure travel made relationships between romantic partners and couples stronger. According to the survey, they found three key points: “1) Travel has long-term benefits for couples 2) Travel helps build and maintain relationships 3) Travel ignites romance and intimacy” Source: https://www.ustravel.org The survey also found that relationships between couples who travel together last longer and that divorce rates were higher for couples who don't travel together. And to find out what keeps couples relationships strong while spending copious amounts of time together while on the road, we asked some experienced motorcycle adventurers for their secrets or tips. Mike and Alanna Clear: Mike and Alanna were married in 2008, and in 2009 they set off on an 8 month adventure on a Ural to search for the secret of lasting love. With research showing that 50% of marriages end in divorce, they wanted to interview couples between Alaska and Argentina, talk to experts and ultimately make a film about their discoveries. They interviewed people in all types of relationships, including long married couples, Jehovah Witnesses, Inuit couples, pornographic actors, swingers and people in polygamous relationships. They had tests done to see if they were scientifically suited to each other, both before and at the end of their trip. Putting it all together took Mike five years, and the outcome was their film "Going the Distance". The film is available on their website or at https://vimeo.com/ondemand/30269 Website: http://www.goingthedistance.org.uk/ Sam Manicom (Birgit): In 1995, Sam met Birgit while on on his eight year trip around the world, she travelled with him for the last four years of the trip, and they have been together since. They still do trips together, and Sam gives us some tips on how they keep their relationship strong. Website: http://www.sam-manicom.com/ Lisa and Simon Thomas: They've been on the road together for 14 years, having completed the world's longest motorcycle journey by a team. They're not only a team, they ride, live and work together every day and remain happily married. On this episode, Simon and Lisa reveal keys to how they do it. Website: http://2ridetheworld.com/ Shirley Hardy-Rix and Brian Rix:  Shirley and Brian are retired professionals, he's a bike fanatic and she loves travel and is happy to be a pillion. They've taken a lot of trips, and have covered a lot of miles together. They share their secrets for a successful and great marriage.

Have you ever discovered a life hack just when you needed to hear it? The timing and the solution was just so perfect that you acted immediately and it has stuck with you ever since? You’ve also probably seen biohacks that involved expensive equipment that is only for the most hardcore biohackers. Today, I’ve got an interesting episode on Biohacks that actually work. Based on my own experiments and experience I’ve created 39 actionable biohacks that YOU can start doing today! The best part? They don’t involve super expensive equipment or things that aren’t exactly backed by solid science. Okay, so why I am talking about Biohacking? I watched a funny video by JP Sears Biohacking Secrets – Ultra Spiritual Life where he’s making fun of Biohacking Secrets. It’s hilarious, . There are way too many people out there taking the biohacking concept and making fools of themselves trying to be cool or cutting edge. But I actually like the term Biohacking. I look at biohackers as a group of people who didn’t fit into the “bro” fitness scene but they are still interested in performing their best physically and mentally. It’s easy to see how all this health hacking talk could come off as complete quackery like the . But it’s also true that biohacking can greatly improve your mental and physical health–if you choose the right science-based strategies. So, what is Biohacking? It’s the art and science of controlling your biology and different parts of your body, influencing physiology in different ways to get the desired result.  In a nutshell, being the best you can be — Life Optimization! And who doesn’t aspire to become a better version of themselves? That’s why you’re reading this blog, right? That’s exactly why I’m not against Biohacking. Biohacking can be the tool to help you grow and reach our maximum potential. It can also be used to close those gaps in your life. Many of you have success financially but are struggling with your health or relationships. Or you’re physically fit but you struggle with financial or communication issues. Whatever it is— I want you to think about optimizing your life and strive to be fit in all areas of your life with these 39 practical biohacking tips. Let’s start with:   6 Fitness Hacks 1. Maximize your gains If you want to maximize the amount of muscle that you’re building make sure you alternate every month between strength zone reps, 4-6 reps then the following month you would use 8-12 reps for your major exercises. So, alternate between a month of strength training and a month of hypertrophy training. And here’s the major exercises that you should do: bench presses, deadlifts, single leg deadlifts, pull ups, overhead presses, squats, Bulgarian split squats, etc. 2. Gymnastic strength training There is a lot of power in using gymnastic strength training. Incorporate these type of exercises into your workout to improve your strength, power, and body control. You’ll notice that these moves make you focus in a way sitting that on a machine or even doing a bench press does not, as there is more skill involved.  Think L-sits, ring dips, muscle ups, Jefferson curls, back bridges, planches, front levers, dragon flags and more. Check out my episode on gymnastic strength training with Christopher Sommer, ! Incidentally, Tim Ferris wrote about Christopher Sommer’s approach to gymnastic strength training in his new book Tools Of Titans. I’ve been a student of gymnastic strength training for the past 2 years now and credit it with helping me get back in shape after a car accident herniated 3 of my cervical discs. 3. Eccentric isometrics This is a great way to get more out of your exercises. It enhances the quality of movement, thereby increasing performance and reducing inflammation and oxidative stress. This is one of the most effective techniques for increasing strength and hypertrophy. Something I’ve been experimenting with is using eccentric isometrics to get better at gymnastic strength training exercises. I’ll be doing videos of how to do those soon. In the meantime, I did two interviews with Dr. Joel Seedman, where we went deep into this topic.   4. Isometric holds You may already be doing this with planks but you can do isometric holds in other exercises such as chin-up, bicep curls, just to name a few. Start using them in your workouts and during reps. It’s going to help you get stronger and build more muscle and it also takes a tremendous amount of control to hold a position. Here are 5 of my favorite isometric exercises: 5. Build Stronger Toes, Feet and Ankles Strong and flexible feet, ankles, and calves provide a base for stable movement and are essential for performing your daily activities without pain or strain. Dr. Joe Seedman has revolutionized my thinking on this topic and I started doing his toe foot and ankle exercises and I’ve been getting great results. What do I mean? Better balance, fewer knee issues, stronger calf muscles and toes that actually move. Here are a few exercises for you to try: 6. Go barefoot (or use barefoot shoes) Going barefoot strengthens the stabilizing muscles of the foot and ankle and makes them stronger and also helps to improves muscle alignment. This all means a stronger body, less joint pain, better posture, more mobility, greater health, and greater freedom. Just make sure you perform the toe, foot and ankle exercises above or your feet may not be ready for barefoot workouts. If workout at a gym and you can’t go barefoot then I suggest using these recommended barefoot shoes. (take the insole out and order 1/2 size smaller) 7 Nutrition, Digestion and Detoxification Hacks 1. Chew your food slowly Chewing breaks your food down from large particles into smaller particles that are more easily digested. This also makes it easier for your intestines to absorb nutrients from the food particles as they pass through. You also release a digestive enzyme called salivary amylase that starts to break down starch in your mouth. If you’re not consciously chewing your food you’re missing out on something that is free and something that really improves your digestive health. Another bonus is that you’ll be less likely to over eat by giving your body time to register fullness. 2. Eat mostly whole foods We’re starting to learn that the quality of what we eat is so important and we’re much better off eating whole foods. None of us are perfect and we live in the modern world, so obviously every meal and snack you have will not be made up of whole foods unless you’re super strict. However, if you aim to eat whole foods for most of your meals for most of the week it will go a long way. Whole foods also make it harder to digest all the calories contained in them versus processed foods. And whole foods are loaded with vitamins, minerals and more. 3. Take glutamine for gas, bloating, loose stools, etc. If you’re experiencing excessive flatulence with a foul smell, it’s usually a sign of an unhealthy digestive system. I would recommend that you try to use trans-analyl glutamine for gas, bloating or any other digestive problem to see if it helps. Glutamine is one of the 20 naturally occurring amino acids in dietary protein. It is considered a conditionally essential amino acid (being elevated to essential during periods of disease and muscle wasting). Glutamine is known to help the immune system as well as the gastrointestinal tract. I’ve personally used it when I was suffering some digestive issues and it helped clear them up. Try it! *My pick:  4. Take digestive enzymes for digesting food problems If you have trouble digesting your food you can also take digestive enzymes. We all have Hydrochloric acid in our stomach and that helps digest the proteins and the harder to digest foods. However, some of us have low levels and I used to have a hard time digesting steak and chicken and taking Betaine HCL has helped to improve that. However, there are many other enzymes (technically HCl is an acid and not a true enzyme) that help to digest fats and starches. These other enzymes can help if there’s an issue digesting the other foods. That’s why I recommend the supplement below. It contains HCl as well as many other enzymes that will help you improve your digestion and to get the most from your food. *My pick: 5. Use organic body care products and toiletries Here’s something I want you to do when you’re home. Look at your shampoo bottle and read all the ingredients and a rule of thumb if it doesn’t sound like something you would eat, don’t put it on your scalp or body. Why? Because our skin is actually an organ and it lets things through. Things like the chemicals that can disrupt your hormones. While not as important as the big three (exercise, nutrition and sleep) I’ve read enough to motivate me to take exposure to potentially deleterious man-made chemicals seriously. Using organic toiletries minimizes your exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals. An added bonus is that these toiletries tend to be better quality and easier on your skin. Here are a few of my favorite toxin-free toiletries for you to try: 6. Use glass containers to store food Whether you’re on a quest to prevent food waste or you simply want to store prepared food, reusable containers can do the job. But some food containers are safer than others when it comes to personal and environmental health. Glass is overall a safer choice for food storage than plastic for the same reason as using organic toiletries–it cuts down on endocrine-disrupting chemicals in your life. Are you going to drop fat like you’re a contestant on the Biggest Loser? No. But it’s another small step in the right direction on optimizing your health. And you won’t get that funky plastic smell in your food. *Here’s my pick: 7. Use an air purifier or air purifying plants Every day our bodies are exposed to small amounts of toxins, carcinogens, and organic pollutants, and over the course of our lives, this can have a very harmful effect. Air quality easily ranks as among the most influential factors on our health. Having an air purifier with a HEPA filter can easily help to the reduction of these effects. If you’re like me and are interest in getting an air purifying plants check out this of air purifying plants.   10 Sleep Optimization Hacks 1. Sleep ritual Bedtime rituals can make or break your success. The last few things you do before bed tend to have a significant impact on your mood and energy level the next day, as they often determine how well and how much you sleep. Having a sleep ritual is a great way to set up your environment for optimal sleep. Try these three steps before going to bed. i. Turn down the lights an hour before bedtime. By dimming your lights (or turning most of your lights off) you cut down on the ubiquitous melatonin disrupting blue light that keeps us from sinking into deep sleep. ii. Turn down the temperature an hour before bedtime. (I’m currently doing 69 degrees) Sleep is though to be triggered by a lowering of temperature. In fact, there was a study done with insomniacs who used a cooling cap before bed and it basically got rid of their insomnia. No need to put on a funny cap. Just turn down your thermostat and hour before bed to ensure that overheating won’t keep you from falling asleep. iii. Stay away from the computer and other devices an hour before bedtime. This has to do with the melatonin disrupting blue light coming from your computer and devices. Of course, sometimes we’re required to work late on our computers. If that’s the case, make sure you download for your computer. Or consider buying some . 2. Sleep mask One of the simplest and most effective ways of achieving darkness when you want to sleep is with a sleep mask. But not all sleep masks are created equally. *My pick: 3. Ear plugs When you block out both noise and light, your chances of falling asleep are improved. In case you live in a noisy area or you have trouble sleeping when it is noisy. Use superior foam ear plugs it’s a great way to solve that issue without putting stress on your ears (some ear plugs can cause your ears to ache when worn for hours). *My pick: 4. Breathe Right Extra strong nasal strips Nighttime nasal congestion is commonly caused by a cold, allergies, or a deviated septum. You may have tried common cold treatments or allergy products to relieve your nighttime nasal congestion, but those may not provide the relief you are looking for, and many people prefer a drug-free option. This is what is working for my nighttime breathing trouble. *My pick: 5. Bed You spend at least 1/3 of your “day” at bed, sleeping. This 1/3 is usually taken for granted because you’re most active during the other 16 hours and that’s what you think about and care for. But rarely do you ponder about the bed you sleep on. So, this hack is a little more of the pricier side but you really can’t put a price tag on a good night’s sleep. If your mattress if old and you wake up with stiffness, numbness, or aches and pains consider changing your bed. *UPDATE: After sleeping on the Sealy Optimum for a number of nights, I have to recommend the Tempurpedic TEMPUR Breeze line. The Sealy has lost its firmness in just a few weeks of sleeping on it. If soft beds are your thing then go for it. But if you have back issues, too soft a bed can make them worse. *My pick: Although I don’t have this mattress, I’ve slept on tempurpedic beds and they’re amazing. So adding cooling gel is just an improvement over an already stellar product. 6. Blackout blinds Research has shown that cutting out all light sources while we sleep can halt interruptions to our body clocks. Simply put, learning to love the dark prevents changes to our internal rhythm. It turns out we need exposure to ‘good’ darkness at night for quality sleep. So, blackout blinds are a perfect solution to better sleep. Another consideration is that installing new blinds can be expensive. And not worth doing if you’re just renting. That’s why I recommend these. *My pick: 7. Sleep meditation As you probably already know though, thinking leads to worrying and can be a significant cause of sleeplessness. So practicing relaxation techniques to calm your overactive mind and unwind from a busy day can be an effective way to overcome insomnia. I’ve started meditating every day now and it has a powerful impact on stress and boosting mood. *My pick: 8. Yoga poses & deep breathing If meditation is not your thing and maybe your body is a bit achy, try doing some yoga moves and deep breathing. This can help bring the stress levels down so that you get back in bed and sleep effortlessly. This is a tried-and-true strategy that I’ve used for years when I have trouble sleeping. 9. Magnesium before bed If you want to get into deep sleep faster, I suggest trying Magnesium before bed to see if it works out for you. I’ve experimented with various forms and dosages and I recommend threonate, glycinate, taurate, chloride. Stay away from the cheap form like magnesium oxide. In fact, I personally use Ancient Minerals Magnesium Lotion and recommend it to all my clients who have trouble sleeping. I also give you an oral alternative ( Natural Stacks Magtech) that I like a lot as well. I highly recommend you try the lotion first. *My picks:   10. Melatonin before bed during nights of troubled sleep or jet lag Melatonin is a very popular sleep aid. It’s naturally produced in your body. You don’t need a prescription for it and can buy it in gummy form or in a fruit drink. When used correctly Melatonin is a safe supplement to take when you are having trouble sleeping. If you are planning to take Melatonin check out my top pick here: *My pick: Most melatonin supplements come in doses that are too high. MIT discovered the best dosage to be .3 mg (or 300 mcg). Make sure you break the tablet in half or even less. And read the articles about the proper way to use melatonin. Learn more about Melatonin:   Get your complete Sleep Guide   6 Supplement Hacks 1. Collagen protein for arthritis The claim that collagen can stimulate the growth of new cartilage in joints is worn out by recent medical studies which say that patients with arthritic or damaged joints showed improvement in mobility and pain relief when taking the supplement. If you have any inflammation going on in your joints, try taking collagen protein and see if it makes a difference for you. *My pick:  2-Whey protein for building muscle Whey is a powerful muscle builder. It digests quickly and has the most leucine (the most important branched chain amino acid for muscle growth) of any food. Please, check out my about the 6 best supplements for building muscle, sleep, stress reduction and better health. I go into detail about whey as well as many other supplements. *My pick: Although it’s a combination of whey and collagen, I was impressed with the quality. And my knees started feeling better! I even did a video review of this product. Watch the review . 3-Creatine Monohydrate for strength training and mental performance Creatine monohydrate is the most researched performance supplement on the market. It also can help with mental performance and depression. Read about creatine. *My pick: Biocreatine 4–Beta-alanine for lactic acid/glycolytic training I wrote about beta-alanine and the reasons for using it  *My pick:  I know, I know. It’s got more than just Beta-alanine in it. The reason I think this formula is superior is because 1) I tried it and liked it and 2) high levels of beta-alanine give you the tingles. This combo will help you push hard during your workouts without the tingling feeling that high-doses of beta-alanine cause. 5-Magnesium during times of stress These are the same products mentioned in the sleep section. The only point here is that you can use them during times of high stress. No need to wait until bedtime. *My picks: 6-Theanine during times of stress L-theanine can also be taken to balance out the effects of too much coffee, high stress or before bed. I put it in this section because I’m a bigger fan of L-theanine during the day. L-theanine is also found in green tea. Be sure to get matcha green tea if you decide to go the natural route. *My pick:    10 Mental Fitness and Stress Reduction Hacks 1- Meditation It’s something I find to be super powerful. We go to the gym to work our muscles but we also need to work out our minds and our brains. I want you to try the Headspace App. I have used it and I really enjoy it and I feel the difference. If you’re thinking meditation is not your “thing”, the Headspace App and do the 10 days of 10 minutes and make a call based on that. I know I already mentioned meditation in the sleep section. But it’s a biohack that has proven benefits, reduces stress and is cheap to implement. I think supplements are great but things like meditation are greatly underappreciated. 2- Power naps (20-90 minutes) They are free and great to take. I recommend taking from 20 to 90 minutes but be careful with the longer naps. You can wake up in the middle of a sleep cycle and feel awful from a nap but if you keep it to around 20 minutes you can wake up feeling calm and recharged. If you feel burnt out, take a quick nap! 3- Travel How often are you traveling? Traveling is an amazingly underrated investment in yourself it opens you to new insights which often gives people a new purpose for their lives. If you are unable to travel outside of the country go on a staycation.  It’s amazing how a short trip can re-energize and reinvigorate you. 4- Spending time with family and friends We all get caught up in our daily routine that we don’t get a chance to see our extended family and friends as often as we would like. Make it a point to go spend time with them as this will give you a boost of positivity and happiness through the release of the neurotransmitter oxytocin. 5- Spend time in nature This is another thing many of us don’t get to do very often, especially if you live in the city.  Nature offers one of the most reliable boosts to your mental and physical well-being. Make sure you spend some time in nature. 6- Get sun Sun directly to your skin creates vitamin D and if you get it into your eyes it boosts serotonin production. So those are two critical things for optimal health. In fact, if you’ve been lacking in motivation lately and you’ve noticed that you haven’t been outside as much or it has been a little bit gloomy outside that can be as a result of your serotonin levels. So, get out and get some sun and did I mention — it’s FREE. 7- Improv acting classes This was an amazing experience for me and new information is coming out on how improv acting can reduce anxiety and boost your communication skills.In fact, there are some . It can help also you be more empathetic to understand people by becoming a better listener. If you haven’t done an improv acting class you’re not serious about living your best life. If you’re in the South Florida area you can check out . If not, just do a search for improv acting classes in your area. 8- Toastmasters Similar to improv acting but less expensive, it’s a great way to boost your confidence and communication skills. And you’ll meet other like-minded people looking to get ahead in life. Find a . 9- Conferences Attending conferences is a great way to be re-energized and inspired while connecting with like-minded people. If you’re one those people who suffer from anxiety this is exactly what you need to do as a cognitive challenge for yourself to help you overcome. Learn more 10-Sex I don’t talk about it a lot on this podcast but sex does more than makes us feel connected to our partner. It releases oxytocin that reduces stress and will also boost your testosterone levels. This is good for both men and women, by the way. I would put sex as a pillar of health. If we’re not getting enough or you’re not enjoying sex with your partner(s) that’s something you should look into changing.

Simple, convenient, active and ecological, cycle touring is for us the perfect way to travel at a human pace to take time to embrace sceneries, atmospheres, silence.
