When we're young we have an amazing positive outlook about how great life is going to be

but somewhere along the line we forget to dream and end up settling. Join up dots features

amazing people who refuse to give up and chose to go after their dreams.

This is your blueprint for greatness. So here's your host, live from the back of his

garden in the UK, David Ralph.

Yes, hello there.

Hello world, welcome to episode 230 of Join Up Dots, and we have got an amazing guest. The voice over man at the

beginning says if you are looking for amazing people who follow their dreams and go after

it then well you've come to the right episode because this is a lady who is

is taking action on a daily basis it's amazing what she's doing and she she puts us most

of us to shame so let me ask you a question, have you ever wanted to

travel the world, see amazing sites and experience new cultures but for, man, what would

I do with the kids? Well I know that I have and I guess mentally upset my stall out for when they all grow up and leave home and then straight on an airplane I go.

But does it have to be that way? Do you have to wait until everything seems perfect in your life or do you just need to show a passion and a commitment to the task?

Well today's guest is a lady who decided in 2007 that she would visit every country on earth and has currently visited 36 and 5 continents.

Planning her work carefully to allow for months of travel each year.

As soon as the kids are in school, she leaves them with her beloved nanny, packs her bags and sets

off alone to start conversations with

total strangers and the collection of unforgettable memories. As she says I am a

dreamer and a doer I'm passionate about living life to the fall and empowering others to do the same.

I wear many hats. I'm a writer, mother, entrepreneur, philanthropist and a modern Marco Polo.

And now as a 230th guest on Join Up Dot, she can add interviewee to her titles too.
