"I moved to Colorado in 2021 seeking a change..."

In Episode 6 of 20-Year Timeout, I reconnect with Casey Tobin, a longtime friend who left behind his East Coast life for a fresh start in Denver, Colorado.

Casey shares his story of personal growth — from leaving a banking job in Worcester, MA, to finding fulfillment in the trades, snowboarding down Colorado slopes, and exploring hobbies like disc golf and content creation.

We talk about:
✔️ Why he left corporate America
✔️ How snowboarding helped him reset
✔️ What HVAC and entrepreneurship offer him
✔️ The ups and downs of dating in a digital world
✔️ The psychological value of hobbies
✔️ Social media's impact on real connection
✔️ Creative project ideas and social experiments
✔️ Reflections on life, family, and mindset
