My friend Rob Murgatroyd is one of the strongest examples in my life of what it looks like to live in alignment and follow your intuition. He’s truly mastered the art of living authentically and chasing what matters most, which for him is quality time with his family and community.  In our conversation, Rob shares the story of how he and his family moved from Manhattan Beach, California to Florence, Italy and how it completely changed their lifestyle. Like so many Americans, he was fed up with the rat-race environment and felt burnt out from feeling like he was always behind.  Rob highlights some ways that we can tap into the Italian approach to living, even if becoming an expat isn’t on our bucket list. He also describes simple strategies to balance ambition with enjoyment and adopt the work hard, play hard mindset.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: The biggest differences that Rob notices about life in Italy vs the US  Challenging the template that you use to design your life  What wisdom Rob hopes to impart on his daughters about life and money  Getting in touch with what really lights you up  Creating more meaningful connections with the people around you   RESOURCES Text ROUNDTABLE to 310-421-0416 to see if we’re a good match for my upcoming VIP business strategy session.     CONNECT WITH ROB  Follow Rob: @robmurgatroyd  Listen to The Next Chapter Listen to Fri-Date with Rob and Kim Murgatroyd   CONNECT WITH CHRIS Follow Me: @chriswharder Visit My Website: https://chrisharder.me
