After quitting one of the top Universities in Canada to move to New York, Sean Kim sold everything he owned and headed south. But when he reached the U.S. border, he was denied entry and the visa he'd been relying on for his new life, was revoked.
This unfortunate turn of events took him all the way to Argentina with no money and no plan. In an effort to avoid any additional shame on his traditional Asian family, he was determined to make it work. Through geo-arbitrage, ingenious personal branding, and his entrepreneurial spirit, Sean went from nothing to building a successful language learning business, and hosting an inspirational podcast with some of today’s most well-known authors and thought leaders.
"I booked the ticket and naively believed that I would figure things out."
