Natasha Cultrao is a real estate investor and owner of a property management company. She and her husband recently moved to Costa Rica to do more investing and change their lives. Natasha shares some valuable insights into the connection between business and personal success, and how past challenges have helped her to approach current challenges in a more positive way. In 2006, Natasha and her husband bought a duplex in Vancouver for $184,000. They rented out the basement and used the income to help make the mortgage payments. In 2011, they decided to move again and Natasha got into property management. She discusses their experience of buying cheap properties and renovating them in order to make a profit. They also talk about how they started their own property management business in order to have more flexibility in their life. The conversation also touches on the trend of motivation through proximity to immigration, and how this can be a factor for entrepreneurs. It discusses a trend of intergenerational fuel and motivation to leverage opportunities and find different paths, as exemplified by the move to Costa Rica. They found that it was a lot harder than they thought it would be, but they eventually made it work. This story is about overcoming fear and making a big life change. Natasha says that in Costa Rica when they turn off their computer at work, they are able to completely relax and enjoy their free time, whereas in Canada they find themselves still thinking about work even when they're not at the office.
