Are you making all the right choices only to feel as like you are living the wrong life? That was me …until I purchased an around the world ticket. With an oversized green backpack , I embraced the unknown twists and turns of traveling the world solo for 9 months… pretty successfully I loved how travel unpacked parts of myself I had not fully experienced in my life back home. Unfortunately, my re-entry home was an epic fail. I felt lost and uninspired. This led to a deep depression that cost my job, a relationship, and worst, my confident. So, what happened? I didn’t completely unpack the most significant thing when I returned home – my empowered self … the one that the world met when I was traveling. Has that happened to you? At my lowest point the answer home to me I needed, no I craved, a way of being a traveler every day. Travel has such a positive impact helping us become a better version of ourselves. Wouldn’t YOU want to feel like your empowered traveler every day, too? This low point gave birth to my simple yet powerful approach for living happily and fulfilled daily. It’s called, The Way of the Traveler’s H.E.A.R.T., and we want you to have access to this approach too. Join us in unpacking your traveler’s heart. Hear inspiring stories from traveler’s and travel expert from around the globe to learn ways we can all fuel the desires of our traveler’s heart daily, where its on the road or living life back home.
