Just like a life coach doesn’t teach you how to live your life.
It also isn’t about teaching someone where to go or what to do there.
It’s about changing the narrative that travel is just something that we all love to do from time to
time.
We all travel, sometimes for work, with our families, with our friends, for a celebration,
and sometimes alone.
Then, when the trip is over, we return home to who we were before we left, our same old
routines, our habits, our work-life, and back to our “norm”.
But what if travel isn’t something that’s just fun, comes at various prices, others can plan and
book for us if we want them to, and temporarily helps us to destress, relax, and forget about
our problems that we left at home until we get back to them?
What if traveling becomes a priority in our life.
A tool in our toolkit for living our life, feeling our best, being our best, and reaching our goals?

When Travel Is About More Than Fun
We already do this, to some degree, when we decide to travel.
We seek to get away to feel something different whether it’s happiness, joy, excitement, peace,
acceptance, or something else.
We crave human connection, time to process grief, feel like we are living a more fulfilled life, filling our voids, finding clarity during our various seasons of life, and seeking answers to unformed questions that we have.
Travel gives each of those at different times, for each trip.
But then we return home and things go back to “normal”.
What about all that we have experienced during that trip? What about the lessons learned?
The “ah-ha!” moments?
The clarity?
The ideas?
The inspiration?
The new connections?
The purpose found?
That takes self-awareness, intention, reflection, realization, and application to make the most
impact on our life when the trip ends.
When those things happen, you know exactly the types of experiences that you need to have,
where you need to travel to, the kinds of environments to be in, and how to best spend your
time, and of course, who to spend your time with.
Your trip then turns from just a vacation or a getaway to an avenue of change and
transformation.
This is what Travel Coaching is all about.
It’s not about the surface-level travel advice and recommendations that the internet is
saturated with.
It’s about shifting how travel is viewed, thought about, valued, planned, talked about,
marketed, booked, and “sold”.
Travel Coaching isn’t some “woo woo” way of thinking about travel.
It’s based on decades of
research that exists on how powerful travel is for us as human beings and why we truly travel.
