By |

Summary: In this episode of Wealth on the Move, host Will Hoffman sits down with Phil and Erin Lockwood—founders of the ‘Always Be Changing’ brand. What began as a shift in educational choices for their children quickly blossomed into a transformational lifestyle change that saw their family exploring all seven continents. The Lockwoods share how they built a life that defies traditional templates—embracing asynchronous cyber schooling, running a remote business, and choosing meaning over money. They explain the philosophy behind their brand, how the pandemic shifted their priorities, and why their adventures are rooted in personal freedom and creative fulfillment. This episode offers a bold take on redefining wealth, education, and how we spend our most valuable resource—time.
