After losing his job, relationship, and financial stability, Jay Yoder found himself back at home trying to rebuild his life from nothing.
In this episode of Phuket Insights, I speak with Jay about leaving California behind and starting over in Phuket, Thailand after years of stress, burnout, failed business struggles, and financial pressure.
From working in the tech industry in San Francisco to going broke during COVID and moving back in with family, Jay shares what led him to completely change direction and build a new life overseas.
We talk about:
• Burnout and dissatisfaction working in California tech
• Going broke and rebuilding from zero
• Starting and running a digital marketing business
• Why he chose to leave the US for Thailand
• Phuket lifestyle vs life in California
• Remote work and working US hours from Thailand
• Education visas, DTV visas, and adapting to life abroad
• Mental health, stress, and lifestyle changes after relocating
• The reality of moving to Phuket long-term
This is an honest conversation about failure, recovery, remote work, and creating a different kind of life in Thailand.
