So this homeless Nomad is in Valencia at the moment and suddenly ended up in a really good Italian restaurant. So when your there I put it in the merchants of @Satlantis: Social Events
From Airline Cockpit to Startup Success & Bitcoin
Excited to share the latest episode of the Digital Nomad Podcast, where I sat down with @Jordi Llonch Esteve
- Airline pilot,
- Startup founder
- Mentor
and passionate advocate for freedom in both money and speech with Bitcoin and as head of growth of Satlantis.
Jordi’s journey is anything but conventional.
Starting from the Ground Up: From baggage handler at Ryanair to flight dispatcher, and then seven years as an airline pilot.
The Leap into Entrepreneurship:
While flying, Jordi studied art and multimedia, which led him to launch his first startup, Sharing Academy. He shares candidly about the challenges of building a business with zero experience, learning to manage teams, and the reality of “successful failures.”
Key Lessons:
- The importance of lowering your ego: Real growth happens when you’re open to feedback and change.
- Product-market fit isn’t static: Sometimes the best opportunities come from pivoting and listening to your users.
- Treat people differently at every level: Nurture your interns, be direct with your C-levels, and always adapt your leadership style.
- Breaking the rules (when it’s safe): As a pilot, rules are life-or-death; in startups, breaking the right rules can lead to breakthrough innovation.
- Global Perspective: Insights from working with governments and startups in Japan, China, and Spain, how culture shapes business and innovation.
Jordi Also explains why he believes in Bitcoin as “freedom of money” and how protocols like Nostr are pioneering “freedom of speech” in the digital age.
If you’re a digital nomad, entrepreneur, or just curious about unconventional career paths, Jordi’s story is packed with actionable insights
Don’t miss this inspiring conversation. Whether you’re in the cockpit, launching your first startup, or exploring new technologies, there’s something here!
At some point, you realize:
You’re working your ass off for something you don’t even want.
That’s where Stephan Milacek found himself.
Med school in Prague, on track to become a doctor. But deep down he knew.
“This isn’t it.”
No backup plan. Just the courage to say no to the wrong life, before he knew what the right one looked like.
In the podcast I recorded with Stephan for the Digital Nomad Podcast, we unpacked 3 major lessons:
1. How to move without a clear plan
Stephan didn’t wait for clarity. He acted before things made sense. That’s what creates momentum!
Not waiting, but moving anyway.
2. The hidden cost of comfort
Stability feels safe… until you realize it’s numbing your potential. His story makes that cost impossible to ignore.
3. Why survival is the business model
When everything breaks, what matters is your ability to stay standing. That’s where real strategy lives, on the edge of resilience.
This isn’t just theory.
At Clarity Craft Consulting, we’re applying this across our systems and with our clients:
→ Rebuilding from simplicity, not scale.
→ Testing against friction, not just flow.
→ Designing for durability, not just growth.
If you’re stuck between “I know this isn’t it” and “I’m not sure what is”...
This episode will give you a lens to move forward.
🎧 Full conversation with Stephan Milacek on the Digital Nomad Podcast:
Tonight there will be a unforgettable game of Charades at @Bansko Nomad Fest with me @Fabio vitto. The Winning team wil get the first round of drinks on us!!
You're not stuck. You're just distracted.
I used to think my competition was outworking me.
But the truth?
I was losing to distractions scrolling, overthinking, saying yes to people who drained me.
One day, I wrote down everything I was avoiding.
Protect your time like your life depends on it.
