*In this episode:*
Welcome to the Ecuador Insider Podcast, where hosts Jesse and Brandon invite you into the vibrant world of Vilcabamba, Ecuador! In this engaging episode, they share their excitement about the sold-out Vilcabamba Lifestyle Retreat starting August 29, 2025, welcoming guests from the US, Canada, Argentina, and beyond. Curious about life in Ecuador? The 9-day retreat at the breathtaking Izhcayluma eco-resort offers a perfect blend of expert-led talks, immersive tours, delicious food, and a deep dive into expat living in this unique corner of the world.

Jesse and Brandon share why Vilcabamba attracts those seeking freedom, sovereignty, health, and spirituality. They explore the idea of living differently, inspired by the "bad apple" study, which suggests that a single nonconformist can shift group dynamics by challenging the status quo. They encourage listeners to redefine success on their own terms—whether that means breaking free from the 9-to-5 grind or embracing a unique path as a "black sheep" to truly "win" at life by standing out. Through lively stories, they highlight Ecuador’s welcoming culture, from joining a local road crew with hard hats and vests to brainstorming fun community events like a donkey race. They also offer a gentle reminder to engage respectfully with locals by building relationships and earning influence through genuine connection. #EcuadorExpat #Vilcabamba #LifestyleRetreat #CommunityVibes #blacksheep #valleyoflongevity #ecuadortravel #badapple
