I Sold Everything to Save My Soul: 6 Months on the Road with Izabela Oquendo

What do you do when your "perfect" life starts to feel like a cage? For licensed psychotherapist Izabela Oquendo, a series of profound losses—the death of her father and the ending of long-held friendships—served as a wake-up call that she could no longer ignore. In this episode of Longterm, Izabela shares the radical story of how she and her family sold their possessions, packed into an RV, and spent six months traveling across the United States to find what was missing. We dive into: The Catalyst for Change: How grief and the dissolution of friendships can actually be "divine intervention" pushing you toward growth. The RV Reset: The reality of leaving a corporate career to live on the road and how nature provides a fresh perspective on what truly matters. Listening to Your Body: Why mindfulness is the ultimate tool for recovery and how to finally tune into your intuition after years of ignoring it. The Power of Reinvention: How Izabela transitioned from a clinical career to entrepreneurship, coaching, and writing by trusting that "everything falls into place" when you are authentic. Izabela’s journey is a powerful reminder that adversity isn't just something to survive—it's an opportunity to rebuild a life that actually fits who you are.
