Leading Rebels

Traveling the world while working on your laptop from anywhere, from the beach to the city. Sounds like a dream, right? It’s a dream Meesen Brown made come true for herself, becoming a bona fide digital nomad. She quickly realized though that 1) you want and need to stay in a place longer than a week to really experience local culture and 2) the logistics of finding a new home, workplace, and fitness studio can get old fast. She decided to create the perfect solution for both and went from digital nomad to being a nomad founder, bringing the Behere platform to life. The one thing travel, being a digital nomad, and founder have most taught Meesen? Confidence.
