That’s the thing about life, you have to try things in the full knowledge that it could be a terrible idea. A Brit moved to Sri Lanka to try the digital nomad life and ended up starting my new favourite Black Honey Café. So, try something, at the very least you’ll get a cool t-shirt, at best you might open a new café.

What is truly wild is doing exactly what you want to do. Free of the baggage of judgement – positive and negative – from others. When we are 5, 10, 15 and 20, someone has always laid out the next steps for us. Then something happens when we move through our twenties. We let go of that belief that everything is decided for us.

What if we ran out of money? What if I wasn’t good enough?

They followed curiosity, saw patterns others missed, and made creative leaps that changed the world. In today’s age of AI, complexity, and constant change, it’s not your niche that will define you - it’s your Range.
