Why I Choose to be a Nomad | Robin Barrett | TEDxSouthCongress

Do you feel like a gerbil on a wheel at your job? Robin Barrett definitely did, but after experiencing a devastating catalyst in her life, decided it was time she owned that wheel. She sold her home and belongings and moved into an RV. But Robin is no bum; She's a digital nomad, working hard as a writer and YouTuber. Feeling freer than ever, Robin explains how a nomadic way of thinking can help you chase your dreams. As the creator of CreativityRV.com and the Creativity RV YouTube channel, Robin Barrett encourages others to discover the possibility of a modern, nomadic life through which professional and personal passions can converge and flourish.

After twenty years as a business owner and successful entrepreneur, Robin discovered what many of us do: that chasing the status quo doesn’t necessarily create happiness. But how does one find a balance between making a living and living a life of joy? For her, the solution was found in the most unlikely of places…a motorhome.

Robin was not a camper or RV enthusiast – in fact, she had never been inside of one until the day she decided to give up a ‘sticks-and-bricks’ house in exchange for mobility and freedom. She escaped corporate America to live and write full-time while traveling. Now, she helps others navigate their way into the life of an American Digital Nomad, have happy travels and be free.

As a creator, she shares her personal journey and gives others the tools they need to do the same, including through her book, Be a Nomad, Change Your Life: The Ultimate Guide to Living Full-time in a Van or RV which has been a bestseller since its release in January 2019 and through her YouTube videos which have been viewed more than 8 million times. Her latest book Work at Home While You Roam and upcoming book, 19 Nomads, both help others navigate the variety of options and styles available to all who want to travel and live now. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
