Meet Tammy Horvath, one of the 24 incredible contributors to Unmapped: Solo Women Travelers – Bold Journeys of Healing, Resilience, and Self-Discovery. Tammy shares how travel, faith, and unexpected friendships around the globe helped her find light after unimaginable loss.

After losing her beloved son Luke to murder, Tammy chose to keep her heart open to love, faith, and movement. Through books like Gone in an Instant, Life Begins with Travel, and Deep Inside, she invites readers to rediscover hope and forgiveness. In Unmapped, Tammy’s story about her solo journey to Australia shows us how healing often arrives in the form of strangers who become family — and koalas who become comfort.

In this heartfelt conversation, Lizbeth and Tammy talk about courage, connection, and the gentle magic of saying “yes” to life again.

• How travel and community can help rebuild trust and joy after trauma.
