  • 104: Looking at Uni in Europe vs American, My Experience So Far
    2024/11/02

    For years as a financial planner working with clients struggling to figure out an affordable to get an education for themselves, their children or grandchildren, I often suggested exploring going to University abroad.

    Back then I was speaking about something conceptually that I hadn't actually done myself. In this episode I dive into my experience at the University of Turin, Italy so far.

    If pursuing an education in Europe has ever crossed your mind this episode is for you.

  • 103: Following Dreams, an Update from Turin
    2024/10/26

    This is my first episode since December of 2023! Last year I did an experiment with my life and spent 4 months living semi-nomadically in Italy, mostly. That time period opened my mind to some new goals that lead me to where and what I'm doing now which is living in Turin, Italy as a student at The University of Turin studying archeology, in Italian.


    I wrote extensively about the concepts of Yes And and Following the Fun in my book AFTERLife, Waking up From My American Dream. They are tools that I'm still using and still amazed at the powerful impact one can witness when we say yes to what our hearts desire. Please like, follow, and share anything you find useful and don't hesitate to let me know if something doesn't make sense or if you'd like me to expand on or add to anything I've covered.

    Thank you so much and best of luck on your journey!

  • 102: Reflecting on the Past Year as You Plan the Next
    2023/12/31

    “The only person you should try to be better than is the person you were yesterday.”
    ― Tony Robbins

    It's easy to get overwhelmed this time of year as people who had amazing years, or want you to believe they did, start posting highlights. No matter what kind of year you had, this is a good time to pause and reflect.


    In this episode I took some time to walk you through what I think about as I look at my year and begin to plan the next. This episode pairs well with my last one I did about goal setting. If you haven't seen that you I'd really recommend these two as a complimentary pair.

    101: Goal Setting Strategy for the New Year


    Please let me know what you think and as I move into my 4th season of this podcast, let me know what you'd like to hear more of!


    Best of luck in your New Year and thanks for listening!

    Cheers,

    Carlo

  • 101: Goal Setting Strategy for the New Year
    2023/12/04

    “The ability to set goals and make plans for their accomplishment is the “master skill” of success. It is the single most important skill that you can learn and perfect. Goal-setting will do more to help you achieve the things you want in life than will anything else you've been exposed to.”

    Brian Tracy


    We're in the final month of 2023 and now is a great time to review your progress for this year and plan the next.

    In this episode I took some time to explain the process I've used over the last 14 years. I've been studying goal setting since I graduated college. It was an important part of my personal life and my professional life as a former financial planner. I developed this process over the course of my career and it works.

    So, if you are ready to build a plan that will move you steadily towards your dreams, this is the episode for you.

  • 100: Still Following the Fun
    2023/11/23

    I can't believe I've recorded 100 episodes!

    This idea I had over 5 years ago that took a couple of years to come to fruition has been so fun and rewarding.

    I've had the honor of sitting down with so many amazing and inspiring people to dive into their stories and wisdom.

    On this Thanksgiving day I'm so grateful to all the people who have helped me, encouraged me, and said yes to joining me on the show.

    I took some time in this episode to dive deeper into this.


    Mentions:

    Here's the language school that I've been attending during my time here in Italy that I mentioned during my show. Scuola Leonardo da Vinci ®

  • 99: Chelsea Ritter-Soronen, Knowing and Living Her Why
    2023/11/06

    I'm super excited to publish this 99th episode that is a conversation I had with one of my dearest friends and a truly inspiring human being, Chelsea Ritter-Soronen. Chelsea is the Sole Proprietor and Principal Artist of Chalk Riot, which is Washington D.C. based company with "an all-women mural crew specializing in vibrant pavement art, including ephemeral chalk art, “3D” illusionary and immersive works, and industrial roadway installations". She and her amazing team just celebrated their 10th year as a business!

    In the time I've known Chelsea I've watched her grow Chalk Riot from a dream to company that is doing HUGE, complex, beautiful projects around the country.

    This list of accomplishments and projects Chelsea manages is amazing.

    There are so many life lessons in this episode. I know you'll love it.

  • 98: Change Requires Courage
    2023/11/05

    “Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.”
    ― Leo Tolstoy


    Change can be very scary...I know. I fought it for many years trying hard to be the Carlo I thought I was supposed to be.

    I built a world around me that supported and reinforced that version of me. Once I started changing, it upset that ecosystem.

    So, along with dealing with my own fears, I had to deal with the fears, comments, and criticisms of others. I look at this now as a necessary part of the process that took me on a transformative journey to where I am right now...living from a back pack in Sicily.

    Substack coming soon.

  • 97: Updates on My Experiments with Minimalism, Studying Italian, and Life Itself
    2023/10/02

    I just finished my 6th week in Italy and am taking a break with my studies to explore a little.

    I took a break to share what I've learned so far and I shares some of the thoughts I've been chewing on as I explore. What I did not do, however, is comb my hair. :)

    If you aren't following my travel Instagram you can see lots of what I'm seeing on carloz_adventures.

    Check out my blog if you want more of the kinds of things I talk about here in a written format.

    Last, if there are topics you want me to dive more deeply into please let me know. I get asked all the time how and why I'm doing what I'm doing and I'm trying my best to share what I can so you can live your dream.
