Welcome to the Mindful FIRE Podcast, where we explore living mindfully on the path to financial independence and beyond. I’m your host Adam Coelho and I’m glad you’re here.

Today we talk to my friend, Frazer Kirkman, a very interesting character who I met teaching meditation at work. Frazer is now a software engineer but has an incredibly interesting story which includes him traveling the world teaching mindfulness and positive thinking for 10 years while living an incredibly minimalist lifestyle.

In this episode Frazer and I dive into:
- What “brain programming” is and why it’s so powerful
- How we can use mindfulness to become aware of our current “programming”
- How we can choose a different “program” for our minds that will take our lives in a different direction
- How “brain programming” can be applied to any area of our life
- How Frazer traveled the world for 10 years teaching mindfulness and positive thinking
- How Frazer lived on less than 10k per year
- Frazer’s thoughts on the positives and negatives of being a minimalist
- Frazer’s thoughts on the Financial Independence Retire Early movement
- How Frazer builds community in his life and has a ton of fun while spending almost no money
- His thoughts on what it means to be and have enough
- How we can be more intentionally loving to our partners and people we care about
- Frazer’s top advice for people starting out with meditation and mindfulness
- Frazer’s top advice for people pursuing financial independence

And so much more. I hope you enjoy my wonderful conversation with my friend Frazer Kirkman.
