Charities We Support

One thing I love about the growth of our business is that we have more space in our life to support charities we care about. I hate saying that it’s only a reality for us now, but when you’re facing your own money struggles it’s hard to think about supporting charities financially, even though you really should. It’s one of the best ways you can tap into that stream of abundance, as you are operating from a giving place. But, as I said, I know it’s hard. So if you are in …

Discovering Pemberton in Western Australia

I love it when you stumble upon completely out of the ordinary things. Travel is just as much about the unexpected surprises as it is the bucket list items. We had one of those moments driving through the Karri forest of Pemberton in Western Australia, 3.5 hours south of Perth and 2.5 hours south-west of Margaret River. We were sitting in …

Do You Have a Soul Home or are You Called to Travel to Certain Places?

Is there a certain place in the world that calls you? You’re not sure why but the intense desire or fascination won’t leave you and you just HAVE to book that plane ticket. Maybe there’s a place when the moment you landed just knew you had arrived home. I like to call those places my Soul Homes. I believe you can have more than one, but often one speaks to you louder than all the others. I had a fascinating conversation about this recently on my webinar…

Poverty is a great unfairness of life. There is enough wealth on the planet to erase that. We just don’t have the right people in power with the intention to balance it. But, that does not mean we hold ourselves back from living a full life. That doesn’t help…

9 Lessons learned from the Problogger conference

Two weeks ago we attended the Problogger conference here on the Gold Coast. So did 700 other people – mostly women! It’s definitely my favourite conference. Not only do I get to hang out with a cool bunch of travel bloggers, but also connect with other bloggers and entrepreneurs across a wide variety of niches from business coaching, to fashion and food bloggers. I …

40 Travel Experiences Before You Turn 40 (It’s my 40th today)

Turning 40 feels GOOD I used to think 40 was sooooo old, but now I’m here I feel like life is just starting. After living 20 years of incredible travel experiences, that’s a pretty awesome future shining back at me. It seems like yesterday I was sliding through the mud in the beer tents of the Durham beer festival in North Carolina for my 30th birthday. A lot has happened since then: …

A Tribute to Wayne Dyer

There are many people in my life who I’ve turned to for guidance to make sense of life’s journey and how to best deal with its ups and downs. I treasure their wisdom and how they’ve helped me transform my life. But, there has been one, who I’ve returned to again and again, …
