It was such a breath of fresh air to see so many entrepreneurs in Mexico City last week at DC MEX, our first in-person event since 2019.

We had so much fun catching up with old friends, meeting new ones, exchanging stories, and working together to move forward with our businesses.

One of our favorite parts about these events is that we get an up-close-and-personal look as all kinds of exciting trends start to emerge in the community.

In today's episode, we are highlighting 10 new trends that we've identified in the location-independent community. You'll hear about business models that becoming popular, how entrepreneurs are moving forward in the wake of the pandemic, and hot locations for digital nomads in 2022.

Listen to this week's show and learn:

  • How entrepreneurs are using service businesses as a means to stairstep into wealth. (10:23)

  • Insights into how the job market is changing going into 2022. (19:34)

  • Which locations are trending hot spots for entrepreneurs. (32:12)

  • Why selling your businesses might not make sense in 2022. (37:51)
