You got 60 days left to close 2026 strong. Does that make you feel excited or anxious?
In this solo episode of Rich and Remote, Karla Singson Booth records from her hometown in Davao City, Philippines, fresh from a mastermind in Bangkok. After a year of layovers, she spent a lot of time thinking about how to approach the last 60 days before 2027.
Her take: don’t wait for the fireworks to start planning.
After 17 years of running businesses, Karla shares the questions she’s asking herself right now, from an honest look at the past 10 months to protecting the money you’ve already made and making the hard team decisions most founders put off until January.
Enjoy the holidays. Just don’t drift through them.
In this episode:
The honest “autopsy” Karla does on her year before setting any goals
The question about your top five clients that every founder should be able to answer
What to ask your clients for this season instead of a price increase
Why Karla says not to hold off on letting someone go just because it’s the holidays
The date she wants you to put in your calendar right now
If you’re the kind of person who makes resolutions on New Year’s Eve, this episode will make you want to start today.

How Many Flights is Too Many Flights
Over 50 flights in one year. That’s how much Alex and Karla once traveled while running their businesses. Was it worth it?
In this episode of Rich and Remote, Alex Booth and Karla Singson Booth get honest about the side of location freedom nobody posts about. Between business layovers, time zone swings, and a three-week Europe trip they just got back from, they unpack what travel really costs a business owner beyond the flight and the hotel.
Karla has been a business owner since 2009 and has built a seven-figure business she can run from anywhere. Alex left over a decade in corporate to build his own. Their travel styles could not be more different, and that’s what makes this conversation so useful.
They share the trips that cost them real momentum, what held up while they were completely offline, and the personal rules they now follow before booking anything.
In this episode:
The five-month stretch abroad that almost brought Alex’s business to a halt
What Karla discovered about a team member while she was on vacation
The one hire that closed deals while Karla was offline
Why you should never try anything new right before you travel
Alex and Karla’s “magic number” of flights per year (they don’t agree)
If you’ve ever wondered whether your travel plans are helping or hurting your business, this episode will give you a few rules to live by.

I Have a Weak Passport, Here's How I Moved to Better Countries
My passport gets me into fewer countries than yours. I went anyway.
I carry what I call an “ugly” passport: visas, bank statements, embassy interviews and fees I don’t get back if they say no. Still, I traveled the world, closed global brands before 23, and built a multi-million dollar remote business.
In this solo episode, I share the exact playbook I’d hand to any Founder who wants more freedom (especially for my sisters and brothers in developing countries):
Why making more money is your real passport upgrade
How to build a travel history that gets you approved
Starting with visa-free, inexpensive countries
Designing your ordinary days, not your dream vacation
Why you should visit in different seasons before you move
How to score a country: culture, safety, food, climate, time zone and more
Why trying two or three places isn’t a mistake
Grab a pen, take notes. Then ask yourself: is your “ugly passport” really a wall, or just paperwork you haven’t finished yet?
Know a Founder who thinks “people like me don’t get to do that”?
