About 2.5 years ago, my friend Liv connected me with Vaishali Patel, who had begun working on her book SOLO EXPLORERS, in which she would share the stories of 30 women from different backgrounds and in different stages of their lives. The one thing they had in common:

They all went on a solo trip that changed their lives, whether through a conversation, a workshop, a person, or a task they set out to do.

In this episode, Vaishali and I are talking about

- what female solo travelers have in common

- what fears we face and how to overcome them

- how to make friends

- and how to start solo traveling if you've never done it before.

Vaishali also shares the inspiring stories of some of the women in her book.

Listen to be inspired for your first or next solo trip <3

Vaishali is an avid solo traveller, TEDx speaker and transformation expert with a keen interest in how travel, creativity, and well-being can open new realms of potential.

She believes venturing beyond comfort zones through solo travel offers insights into ourselves and the world, shaping aspirations and perspectives.

Her solo travels not only ignited a successful marketing career but also elevated her self-confidence and paved the way for entrepreneurship.

Eager to extend these benefits, she shares her journey in a TEDx talk, ‘Your Body’s Intelligence,’ and coaches others to embrace their natural self-expression, whether through public speaking, creativity or solo travel.

Through coaching and speaking engagements, she inspires others to embark on empowering journeys of self-discovery.
