The Strategic Hippie Show

If you’re still trying to figure out wtf is a sTrAt3Gic h!pPi3?! This episode is context. It’s giving on-the-scene journalism. Documenting Mickey’s first full day in Puerto Rico with Julia. We had so much fun, and you can feel it. Our hosts met in 2018 through Better Than Success, while navigating their “boss babe” era as real estate entrepreneurs. Now, we’re united in our anti-grind culture approach to business and sharing the less polished and more authentic parts of our investing experiences. While we chat almost every week for the show, this trip was our first time hanging out for an extended time, IRL. We got to know each other better, and affirm our synchronicities and differences as Strategic Hippies. This episode is a window into our vibe and a taste of life in Puerto Rico. Stay ‘til the end where we share the results of our human design types from myhumandesign.com. If it resonates...  STAY IN TOUCH  JOIN "Who's Paying My Mortgage?

We’re millennial-boomers, so we’ll always call it Twitter. And it’s the perfect space for silly and meaningful rifts on life and business. We posted a photo of a smiling, walking, flower with the caption, “The secret to having it all is knowing you already do.” With this quote in mind, Mickey and Julia get into a convo about self-worth and “financial security.” It can be second nature to quantify our needs with a dollar value. Our financial relationships are nuanced and informed by our lived experiences. We’re always here for exploring the deeper values of money, and sharing practices to stay mindful in the dance of giving and receiving currency.   If it resonates...  STAY IN TOUCH  JOIN "Who's Paying My Mortgage?

The foundation of being a "Strategic Hippie" is releasing grind culture. (It’s trash) Closing out 2023, Julia and Mickey met a crossroad in keeping up with The Strategic Hippie Show and a mutual call for rest and reflection. How can we continue to produce content outside the spirit of our core values? We can’t. And we don’t. We took a proper break, then we got back to work. And by work, we mean frolicking in Puerto Rico =) In January, Mickey visited the beautiful wellness space Julia is creating and fell in love with the vibes and her vision. Before we got into that trip thoh, Julia came back to Philly and we got a chance to catch up during our ‘pause.’ This show is a labor of love that keeps us grounded in our own reaffirming to lead with intention in life and business, and we share as a blueprint for others. So alas, we’re back for Season 2 and discussing self-awareness and scalability. If the things are resonating…  STAY IN TOUCH  JOIN "Who's Paying My Mortgage?

5From overworking to intentional living, Julia and Mickey explore “stillness” in moments of transition. Julia calls it the “capitalism curse,” when we’re too busy being human “doings” we’ve lost the plot on “being” humans. Surely it’s personal preference on what that means to each of us. And there’s a reminder to check in, that the tasks of life aren’t overpowering our ability to be present on the journey.
