Rob and Kieran pull back the curtain on the massive, life-altering decisions that made them leave Ireland and the UK forever — and build a dramatically better life in Poland.

In this episode we go deep on:

- How Ireland’s record-breaking harsh lockdowns made Rob’s escape decision almost automatic

- Kieran’s “I’m just visiting” trip that turned into “I’m never going back”

- The honest 2025 reality: why day-to-day life in Poland (cost, safety, culture, freedom) now feels objectively superior

The exact decision-making frameworks we used to take the leap (and that you can use for any big move):

→ Jeff Bezos’ regret-minimization & one-way/two-way door decisions

→ Annie Duke’s “Thinking in Bets” mindset

→ Mel Robbins’ 5-4-3-2-1 rule to kill procrastination and indecision

→ Escaping the sunk cost fallacy (with painful stories of when they did)

→ Beating decision fatigue by habitualising and front-loading choices

→ How small daily decisions compound into a completely different life (Darren Hardy’s The Compound Effect)

If you’ve ever dreamed of moving abroad, feel stuck in your current country, or just want to make faster, higher-quality decisions—this episode is your playbook.

Most of us swear we don’t have “issues” with money… until we realize we’re still afraid to invest, still waiting for permission to buy something nice, or still sitting on cash “just in case the world ends tomorrow.”

This episode is about the money curse you never saw written down anywhere, yet it still runs your life: the sound of your parents arguing about bills through thin walls, the endless chorus of “money doesn’t grow on trees,” the slammed kitchen cabinets when the rent was late—little moments that taught you money is pain, scarcity is permanent, and playing it safe is the only smart move.

We get real about growing up broke and how that scarcity blueprint can follow you through life. We talk hoarding vs. true security, class betrayal, generational patterns, and why we’re begging you to stop treating investing like gambling and start treating it like oxygen for your future wealth.

This is the episode that calls out the invisible curse… and hands you the permission (and the push) to finally invest like someone who believes tomorrow can be better than today.

It’s time to stop letting childhood ghosts hoard your potential. Let’s break the curse and build real wealth—together.
