What if I told you that you could build a full-time travel lifestyle without a huge following, an email list, or a trust fund? 🤯 Today’s guests, Kim and Isaac, did exactly that — and they’re here to spill all their systems-savvy secrets that let them work part-time while traveling full-time.

In this episode, I sit down with Kim and Isaac, the powerhouse duo behind LocalFi, an award-winning SEO and digital marketing agency that helps locally-owned businesses get found online (think Google Maps, Yelp, and their websites).

Now, they not only run a thriving digital business, but they also created a second brand: Full-Time to Travel Time, dedicated to helping others break free from the 9–5 by building systems that actually work.

We dive into:

• How they only work 10 hours a week in operations (yes, really).
• The exact systems they use to run a business that doesn’t run them.
• How to start building systems even if you’re overwhelmed or solo.
• Real-life advice on delegating, working with VAs, and using AI to streamline your biz.
• Why you should not fill your free time with more work (guilty 🙋🏻‍♀️).
• Their favorite personal systems — including Kim’s game-changing calendar routine.
• And the power of knowing when you’re in the wrong seat in your business.

Ever found yourself doing everything but the one thing you absolutely need to get done? Laundry folded, fridge organized, random Wikipedia pages explored—and your big project still untouched? You're not lazy—you're human. And in this episode, we’ll unpack why procrastination happens and how you can finally outsmart it.

🧠 What You'll Learn:

• The real psychological drivers behind procrastination (hint: it’s not just poor time management).
  
  
• How perfectionism and fear of failure feed the procrastination cycle.
  
  
• The concept of “emotional regulation” and why it matters more than willpower.
  
  
• Practical strategies to break the habit—and build momentum.
  
  

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• Procrastination is an emotional regulation problem, not a character flaw.
  
  
• Avoidance offers short-term relief but compounds stress in the long term.
  
  
• Awareness is the first step—recognize your triggers and emotional responses.
  
  
• Tools like the “10-minute rule,” setting low-friction goals, and self-compassion can radically change your behavior.

📌 Resources Mentioned:

• Tim Urban’s Inside the Mind of a Master Procrastinator (TED Talk)
  
  
• “The Now Habit” by Neil Fiore
  
  
• Mindfulness-based practices for self-awareness
