Summary
I came to Brazil for Carnival and never left. And one of the most beautiful gifts this country has given me is my new friend Ana Stier, a female solo traveler who has visited over 50 countries and sees every trip as a vessel of self-love and spiritual awakening.
In this episode Ana and I get into everything you have ever wanted to know about solo traveling the world as a woman and how to make it the most transformative experience of your life.
In this episode we explore:
✈️ How to choose where to travel and why places actually choose us
🎒 Why buying a one way ticket and leaving 3 days unplanned is the greatest gift you can give yourself
🌺 How solo travel builds self-love in a way nothing else can
💃 Why the goddess protects solo female travelers and how to call on her
🧭 How to make friends stay safe and find the magic in every destination
🌹 What travel romances teach us about detachment presence and being fully alive
🧠 The science behind why travel builds new neural pathways and makes you more resilient
🌍 How to surrender to the unexpected and let spirit lead you somewhere better than you planned
🌊 Why traveling teaches us how to die and say goodbye with grace
If you have been dreaming of taking that solo trip, this episode is your sign. The goddess is already planning your itinerary.
