Society EN ↓ 5 episodes

Ever look at your life and think, how did this become the plan? Burn the Blueprint is us talking through what it actually looks like to do life differently while you’re still in it. We’re Leyla and Trevor. We sold most of what we owned, packed our kid and two dogs into a 230-square-foot RV, left the U.S., and ended up in Belize. We figured we’d sort it out as we went. Sometimes that worked. Sometimes it really didn’t. Most of the time we’re somewhere between this feels right and wtf have we done? Parenting in a foreign country. Money fear. Big decisions. Bigger doubts. Immigration. Identity. E...

The Good, The Bad, and The Border 29.03.2026 1:17:56

This is the one where it all starts to feel a little too real. Our last night in the United States is an RV park in McAllen. Not a big goodbye. Not a moment.

We didn’t wake up one day wanting to leave the U.S. We just slowly realized we didn’t want to stay. COVID. Losing our jobs. The political climate. Feeling stuck in a life that suddenly felt way more stifling than it used to. Then one trip to Belize. And a very uncomfortable feeling we couldn’t shake when we got home. In this episode, we talk about the why . The first trip. The moment it clicked. L...

Burning it Down 22.02.2026 1:16:24

Buying the RV made it real. Posting the video made it public. After that, everything rolled downhill. Marketplace chaos. Selling the house. Quitting our jobs. Watching the safety net disappear. Realizing we’d boarded a train we couldn’t get off and it was moving FAST. In this episode, we talk about blowing up our lives in real time. Letting go of everything familiar. Getting wildly confident opi...
