This episode is about something else entirely: alignment. In this more personal episode, Tyler shares five lessons from spending two months “snowbirding” in Sedona — and what the experience revealed about money, time, and the life we think we want. Because sometimes the biggest financial insights don’t come from spreadsheets. They come from living differently long enough to notice what actually matters. In this episode, Tyler reflects on: Why buying back time only works if you know what to do with it The idea of a “path dividend” — testing lifestyles before committing to them How lifestyle upgrades quickly become your new normal (and lose their impact) Why major life changes require understanding what you’re leaving, not just gaining The illusion that a new place will create a new version of you Along the way, Tyler connects everyday moments — cooking dinner, staying in Airbnbs, almost buying a house — to deeper financial decisions around spending, relocation, and retirement. The core idea: Wherever you go, there you are. Money can change your environment. It doesn’t automatically change you. This episode isn’t about maximizing efficiency. It’s about building a life that actually fits — before you build the plan to fund it. If the show’s been helpful, leaving a quick review on Apple or Spotify genuinely helps. Hope this gives you something to think about this week.
