Digital Nomad Family - Balancing Work & Travel | Ep 142

Business Your Way

Karen King, founder of Gold Star Pro, shares her journey of building a business while embracing the digital nomad family lifestyle.

Meet Karen King, the adventurous entrepreneur behind Gold Star Pro!

An Aussie, a mum of two, and a full-time traveller for nearly a decade, Karen traded the 9-to-5 grind for a business that lets her work from anywhere. 🏝️

The spark that ignited her digital nomad family lifestyle were the words “location independence” from “The Four-Hour Work Week” book by Tim Ferriss.

From there, Karen didn’t just adapt to the digital nomad family life. She built a business to make it easier for others too (if that’s what they dream of). Enter Gold Star Pro.

Let’s talk about Gold Star Pro

Gold Star Pro is the ultimate business tool for talented but not-so-tech-savvy entrepreneurs who want efficiency, automation, and more freedom. Instead of juggling multiple platforms, Gold Star Pro brings everything into one place with (and this is important!) lots and lots and lots of support. 🙌

In Karen’s words, “the platform offers everything a small service business needs apart from ZOOM”. From the website to course creation, email marketing, bulk social media scheduling, contact management and much, much more. It’s all there.

Equally, as any parent will contest, running a business with kids isn’t easy. Doing it while travelling takes it up a notch. But Karen has mastered the art.

Here are her top 5 strategies to make it work:

1. Time Blocking is a Game-Changer ⏳ In the early days of their life as a digital nomad family, Karen loved the freedom of working whenever she wanted. But soon, she realised she wasn’t as productive as she could be. It was the trigger to engage a business coach who encouraged her to time-block.
