Built Between Bedtimes – Episode 36: Costa Rica, a Four-Hour Work Week, and the Plan to Disappear for a Quarter

In this episode, Chris and Rob pick up where they left off — with Tim Ferriss, the Four-Hour Work Week, and what it actually looks like to stop being the bottleneck in your own business. Chris's wife is already on board with moving the family to a community in Costa Rica — think communal dinners, international neighbors, kids learning in the world instead of a classroom. The time zone math checks out: Portland is one hour ahead. The mosquito situation is still unresolved. Rob breaks down the practical steps he's taking from the book right now: cutting email to twice a day, handing off responses, and designing the business so it runs while he sleeps. The goal isn't retirement. It's optionality. And Chris is being held publicly accountable to picking a date.
