What happens when you step outside everything familiar and choose a different way of living? In this episode of Live by Design Mexico Edition, host Taniel Chemsian sits down with Travis Bembenek, whose journey to Mexico began as a college study abroad experience and later became a permanent lifestyle choice in San Miguel de Allende.

Travis shares how he and his wife left demanding corporate careers in the U.S. to create a more meaningful, intentional life rooted in culture, community, and connection. They talk honestly about the challenges of relocating, adapting to a new way of life, and redefining success beyond titles and income.

Whether you are considering a move to Mexico or simply questioning what fulfillment really looks like, this episode offers real-life lessons, thoughtful reflection, and inspiration to help you grow beyond your comfort zone and design a life that truly feels like your own.
