This is about what happens when you stop waiting for life to get easier and start putting yourself in places where something can actually happen.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/globetrotters-podcast--5023679/support.
Wanderlust is embedded into the human DNA. It is as much a part of us as thirst or hunger, and just as powerful a motivator. Humanity did not cross the Bering Strait because Asia ran out of space, we crossed because it was there. We spread across the world like a global pandemic, and now that we have airplanes, that pandemic has become airborne. Travelers traverse everywhere, and thus citizens of foreign lands need a place to put all these explorers. Just like airports have customs lines, and the Everglades has Alligator Alcatraz, popular cities have Tourist Traps. Some random, worthless artifact is given Can’t-Miss status and these groups flock to line-up and self-contain. But if your goal is to explore a new city, why waste time taking a selfie at the most photographed places in the world? Blend in with Mat and Veronique as we seek out new life and new civilizations by boldly going where everyone else already lined up for Tourist Stuff! *Grumbles are specifically off-the-cuff, no research went into this grumble. _____________________________________ Support the show and become a Grumble Kid!

Wann hat der Mensch eigentlich beschlossen, dass er Urlaub braucht, dass er verreisen will und dass er sich für ein paar Wochen im Jahr einfach mal eine Auszeit gönnt? Ist Ötzi auch schon in den Urlaub gewandert? Cäsar oder König Arthur? Wann ging das alles los, wer war der erste urlaubsreife Mensch auf dieser Erde? In dieser Folge gehen wir auf Spurensuche und fragen uns, wann und warum das Verreisen angefangen hat. Waren es immer nur Flucht, Vertreibung oder Eroberung, die uns angetrieben haben, unsere Höhle zu verlassen? Oder war es auch die Neugier, die Wanderlust auf den nächsten grünen Hügel, der Wunsch nach Tapetenwechsel und Erholung am Meer? Und letztlich steht die Erkenntnis: Urlaub, das ist eigentlich gar nicht die Ausnahmesituation. Urlaub, das ist der Urzustand.Protagonisten:Prof. Dr. Harald Meller – Prähistorischer Archäologe, Landesarchäologe von Sachsen-Anhalt und Direktor des Landesmuseums für Vorgeschichte in HalleIhr wollt tiefer ins Thema eintauchen?:MDR WISSEN: "Mitteldeutschlands klügste Köpfe – Harald Meller"MDR WISSEN: "Faszinierende Funde und Geheimnisse der Himmelsscheibe von Nebra"Spektrum der Wissenschaft: "Erholung: Urlaub wirkt doch!"

Before the girls hit menarche, they trailed rainbow sorbet, tie-dye, and enough Pirate's Booty to leave a breadcrumb trail across every airport in North America. In this episode, Jeff remembers the summers his family spent touring with the Wanderlust yoga festivals: one squeaky roller bag, three dozen Trader Joe's totes, and three young daughters who could double as walking coat racks. Pirate's Booty wasn't just a snack; it was how the ops team always managed to track him down. The story lands at a Vancouver airport ticket counter, where the "yogul" of Wanderlust finally, and very publicly, loses his equanimity. This is the 7th episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

For most of us, singer/songwriter Donna Lewis appeared out of nowhere in 1996 when her smash hit "I Love You Always Forever" got to #2 on the charts and seemed to never go away. What was strange is she kind of disappeared almost as fast, with further singles and albums not making the same impact. You may be surprised to find out Donna's never stopped working and even has a new album, Wanderlust, her seventh, with collaborator David Lowe and it's just as strong as the rest.

Six years ago I made something I really believed in. A remix of mine had reached Ruben de Ronde through a mailing list. He played it, he liked it, we started talking, and he asked me to do an official remix of "Wanderlust", his track with EKE. I made it. He loved it. And then, for whatever reason, it just never came out. So it sat. Six years on a shelf. Long enough. I'm just really happy to finally share my music with you again. Original: Ruben de Ronde feat. EKE, Wanderlust (Statement!). Remix by Gitman. Follow: instagram.com/gitmanmusic | youtube.com/@gitmanmusic | tiktok.com/@gitmanmusic
If you've ever dreamed of saying, "I quit!" and booking a one-way ticket, this episode is for you. After experiencing corporate burnout and setting off on a solo trip through Southeast Asia, Gabi Nowak-Jelonek discovered that the hardest part of travel wasn't finding incredible destinations—it was finding people to share them with. That realization led her to create Females Flying Solo, a Facebook group that has since grown into a global travel company. We talk about building community from scratch, why more women are embracing solo travel than ever before, and how stepping outside your comfort zone can completely reshape your life.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/globetrotters-podcast--5023679/support.

Starting with the legendary comedy group "The State," more than three decades ago, Marino has been the go-to comedy gold in countless television shows, stealing so many scenes in movies, always bringing the funny. The films he's co-written with David Wain are some of his highlights — "The Ten," "Role Models," "Wanderlust," and now "Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass" (which comes out July 10th). On this episode, Marino ponders the origins of his brand of comedy (or if he even has one), explains why he doesn't like humor that punches down, makes a case for why he thinks he has "a good grasp on 'asshole,'" talks about what has brought him to a place where he makes bold choices right off the bat, lays out how it all comes down to "specifics," and much much more. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft.

What happens when your body starts to heal, but your mind is still trapped in survival mode? In this episode of hol+, Dr. Taz sits down with Amy Kurtz, certified health coach, patient advocate, speaker, and author "But You Look Fine", for a powerful conversation about chronic illness, Lyme disease, medical gaslighting, nervous system trauma, and what it really means to heal.Together, they explore Amy's 20+ year journey through unexplained pain, chronic symptoms, misdiagnosis, and the search for answers that finally led to a diagnosis of late-stage neurological Lyme disease and co-infections. Amy shares what it was like to be told her labs were normal while knowing something was deeply wrong in her body, and how years of invalidation shaped her relationship with her health, her identity, and her trust in herself.Dr. Taz and Amy also discuss why so many people live in the “gray zone” between sick and well, especially when symptoms are invisible, complex, or hard to explain. They unpack why normal labs do not always mean optimal health, why Lyme disease can be missed for years, and how chronic illness can impact relationships, career, emotional safety, and the nervous system.This conversation offers a grounded and hopeful look at what happens after illness, when the body may be improving but the mind and nervous system are still bracing for the next crash. Amy introduces her concept of Medical Trauma Brain, or MTB, which describes the anxiety, hypervigilance, fear, and survival patterns that can remain after chronic illness, cancer, stroke, chronic pain, or any major health crisis.If you're listening to this and thinking, “I know something is off in my body, but I don't know where to start,” join the Circle here:

Charles Achampong joined Michelle to share the story of how his family took a year-long trip around the world. What began as a seed of an idea on his honeymoon in Rio de Janeiro became a 10-year plan that ultimately transformed his family's relationships, perspectives, and approach to life. About Charles Husband and father of two girls (ages 9 and 12) 20+ years across public, private, non-profit, and philanthropic sectors Focuses on helping communities solve complex problems Now speaks and writes about the power of pausing and intentional living Author of Around the World in Family Days How It Started His wife planted the seed on their honeymoon — a dream to take their future family around the world Became a 10-year financial and logistical plan The pandemic reinforced their decision — life is short, and waiting isn't guaranteed Originally planned as an African safari for her 40th birthday; evolved into a full world trip Key Barriers They Faced Financial fear — shifting from scarcity mindset to values-based decision making Logistics overwhelm — schooling, travel routes, work; most were solvable Illusion of readiness — there is no perfect moment; you have to interrupt life yourself Identity — letting go of titles, productivity, and career momentum Execution reality — fatigue, missed flights, sibling arguments; growth comes from friction Values-Based Decision Making Most pre-trip decisions were default decisions, not deliberate ones The gap year forced the question: What do we value enough to reorganize our lives around? Key family values identified: Quality time together before kids become teenagers Exposing children to the world beyond the classroom Living in alignment, not just in stability Practical exercise suggested: Review your last 3 months of calendar — where is your time going? Review your last 3 months of bank/credit card statements — where is your money going? Do these reflect your actual values? Advice for Others "Don't wait until life forces you to pause — practice choosing a pause intentionally." You don't need a full year; even micro-sabbaticals create meaningful disruption The goal is disruption of routine, not just duration Get honest about what's really holding you back — it's usually fear, not logistics Involve your kids (or family) in the planning process Resources & Links

What if a song could take you somewhere you've never been? Or transport you straight back to a beach, a bus ride, or an open road on the other side of the world?In this solo episode I'm sharing the songs that have shaped my travel life — from the early days of dreaming about the world from my bedroom, through my first big adventure in 2013, all the way to life on the road today.Some of these songs painted pictures of places before I'd ever set foot there. Others are locked forever to a specific moment — a sweaty dance floor in Thailand, a hungover bus ride through New Zealand, a road trip across Canada that changed everything.Seven songs. A lifetime of wanderlust. And one or two choices that might genuinely surprise you.Whether you're a seasoned traveller or still dreaming of that first big trip, this one might just make you want to book a flight, hire a campervan and disappear.
In this special episode, Dr. Will Cole takes the stage at Wanderlust to deliver one of his most comprehensive talks on the bi-directional relationship between gut health and mental health. He covers the science of neuroinflammation, leaky gut, intergenerational trauma, and why standard lab reference ranges are failing patients - along with the specific tools, supplements, and mind-body practices that actually move the needle. This is functional medicine as Dr. Cole teaches it: rigorous, compassionate, and deeply practical.

In this inspiring episode of Follow Your Joy, we explore the powerful intersection of travel, intuition, and redefining success for women who have achieved — yet know there's much more. My guest's story is a prime example of how a NEW CHAPTER begins with discontent, uncertainty, a defining moment, and then burnout. If her journey of being pulled toward something different… more freedom, more adventure, more aliveness… then this conversation will surely resonate deeply. I'm joined by global travel journalist, author, and entrepreneur Jen Ruiz, whose story is a brilliant example of what happens when you stop following the expected path — and start following your joy. Jen went from practicing law to taking a bold leap: 12 trips in 12 months before her 30th birthday — a decision that completely transformed her life and career. Sometimes… the most powerful next step isn't more strategy — it's a plane ticket, a yes to yourself, and the courage to follow what feels true. Inside this episode, we talk about: • Why traditional "success metrics" rooted in hustle and logic often lead to burnout • Jen's personal story of heartbreak, solo travel, and unexpected magic that led to her newest memoir • How travel becomes a catalyst for clarity, healing, and reinvention • The importance of blending feminine intuition with masculine structure for true alignment • The role intuition plays in making bold life and business decisions • Why women don't need to wait for the "perfect time" to start living fully Jen shares how she now uses her platform to amplify local and women-owned businesses around the world — combining her background in law with storytelling, advocacy, and global impact. This conversation is a reminder that: Success isn't just what you build. It's how you feel while living your life.

Hey everybody! Episode 188 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with my friend Marta Wanderlust for her second appearance on the podcast—the first was five years ago, back in episode 16. Since then, Marta has become a mother of two, and this conversation centers largely on motherhood and the birthing process. We explore the parallels between birth and plant medicine ceremonies, birth as an initiation and threshold, the medicalization of childbirth and its downsides, and how birth itself can be a path to God. Marta also speaks to the role of Christ and faith, the reclamation of women's sovereignty, and what that return of power could mean for a society less dependent on institutions and hierarchy. This was a deeply fascinating conversation about life, and Marta's grounded, experiential wisdom truly shines through. I trust you'll gain a lot from this one.

In this episode, Laura is joined by Dr. Crystal Moten, an award-winning writer, historian, and expert on Black women's history who has spent her career amplifying the lives and labors of Black women. Dr. Moten introduces the concept of professional wanderlust, a term she coined to reframe how we think about career mobility. Drawing inspiration from the idea of wanderlust in travel, she explores how many Black women navigate their careers as spaces of learning, growth, and exploration rather than following a single, linear path. A self-described professional wanderlust herself, Dr. Moten shares how she once felt shame about frequently changing roles before recognizing the deeper power in refusing to wait for permission to pursue opportunity, wellbeing, and alignment. Through both personal experience and historical insight, she challenges the stigma often attached to "job hopping" and invites listeners to see career movement through a more expansive lens. Together, Laura and Dr. Moten discuss the many reasons Black women move between roles—from seeking fair compensation to leaving toxic work environments to pursuing personal growth and joy. The conversation highlights how career mobility can be both a strategic and liberatory response to workplace realities. Aligned with Season 8's theme Leaning Into Joy, this episode encourages listeners to reimagine their professional journeys as acts of courage, curiosity, and self-determination. About Crystal Dr. Crystal Marie Moten is an award-winning writer and expert on Black women's history. She has spent her professional life amplifying the life and labors of Black women. A self-proclaimed "professional wanderlust," she is one of many Black women who have left job after job for a myriad of personal and professional reasons. At first, this continual movement made her ashamed–until she recognized the power in refusing to wait for anyone's permission to reclaim her destiny, walk in her power and write her own ticket.
