Ep15 From Corporate Success to True Alignment: James Martin's Journey to Spain and starting over

This episode is a journey — from the suburbs of Minneapolis, to a Fortune 500 career, and ultimately across the ocean to Spain. James Martin opens up about the moments that shaped him: discovering storytelling as a kid around a campfire, building a life through travel, and realizing he was living someone else’s version of success. He shares the pivotal day his daughter asked him to play, the wisdom his father left him before passing, and how those truths pushed him to redefine what fulfillment actually looks like. We also explore what it means to start over as an immigrant — the courage, the cultural humility, the “poco a poco” mindset, and the invisible challenges that come with rebuilding your life in a new country. This conversation is about alignment, family, identity, and choosing a life that feels like your own. It’s honest, human, and full of reminders to slow down and live with intention.
