Our Rich Journey
Welcome to Our Rich Journey!
If you’ve been following our story, you know that our family of four reached FIRE (financial independence retire early) in August 2019. That’s right - at the age of 39, we retired early and moved to Lisbon, Portugal!
When we started pursuing FIRE, the movement was relatively small and not many people knew about it. But through our Channel, we’re hoping more people learn about FIRE! In our videos we share ways to make money, save money, and invest money - to inspire you to pursue financial independence.
Our goal is to share our experiences with you, so that you can learn from them and so that you can also successfully pursue financial independence. We’ve created quite the community of Our Rich Journey FIRE starters. So, what are you waiting for? Join the journey and start that FIRE!

We all say we want more freedom.
To travel. To create. To live on our own terms.
But actually doing it—that’s where it gets real.
Matahari “Mata” Dharma has done it.
She left NYC and built a life on her own terms—traveling to 40+ countries, living abroad, creating, and redefining what freedom really means.
She’s not following someone else’s blueprint.
She’s creating her own.
And at the 365 Days to F.I.R.E. Conference, she’s sharing how.
Mata’s joining the panel:
“The Future of F.I.R.E: Designing the Life You Want”
If you’re ready to design the life you want, this is your session.

Too many people wait for someday to live.
Someday they’ll travel.
Someday they’ll rest.
Someday they’ll finally take a break.
At our 365 Days to F.I.R.E. Conference, we’re flipping that script.
We’ve invited Sharolyn, global thought leader and founder of The Xpat App, to share:
How she used mini-retirements on her journey to F.I.R.E. and . . .
How you can too.
Sharolyn was a Big 4 consultant and . . .
In 2019, she took a bold mini-retirement that changed her life and led her to build the world’s largest global directory of Black expats, nomads, and study abroad students.
She’ll show you how to successfully take a mini retirement on your F.I.R.E. journey —without breaking your plan.
