12-minRVconvos is an extension of my podcast 12minconvos with Engel Jones available on iTunes and Google Play. This is the name we came up for our mission, to drive across the US
Think about it here with me. I interviewed 1987 guests on my podcast. If each podcast guest donated US$24 we would raise US$47,688 which would cover the RV
We raised US$3,947.50 in 12 days, 8% of the inital goal.
Great time to GIVE UP !!!! !!!! !!!!
here is a leading that has developed over time that I am learning to follow. An inner voice that's hard to explain because it is a voice only I can hear. The voice that speaks to what you can accomplish when others say you can't. The voice that urges you to get up and do it again, to follow through, to show up. I heard that voice say do not give up.
Therefore, given the situation we began to do the next best thing. Course Correction.
We came up with the following options :-
Amanda suggested that I do it by myself. She believed this was something I should do. She was willing to sacrifice not being there. To her, it was more important that this caribbean podcaster fulfill his dream. This is where my mother came to the rescue a second time in this story
I felt excited. This was actually happening. We spoke with Amanda's parents asking them if they would be willing to keep the boys on the weekend and they said yes as well. Understanding the energy levels of our sons, we calculated that this would have provided a much-needed break for both grandparents. This was a plan that we could feel safe with. Next, the question of money
A combination of the money raised and ours. Added to that Ryan was working on other ways that we could save. His planning and support was an integral part of us getting this far. We planned to use the money we raised to rent an SUV for the 90 day period and use our savings to finance the rest. The SUV rental for the period would cost US$2895.37. Our airline tickets from Trinidad and Tobago to Florida just about US$725 / TT$4,979.94.
Trinidad and Tobago
We are packed and off on our flight to the United States of America accompanied by our friend Alicia. We will arrive on the 11th of June. Ryan Dean has strategically planned the logistics for the journey and is flying in from Virginia to meet us in Florida to prepare for our launch date on June 12th, 2018.
What happens next on arrival could not have been planned.
We are faced with an obstacle on arriving at the airport. Follow us to the next day where we will share more.
