S2 E18: The Path to Freedom with Breanna Wilson
Today we have a conversation with Breanna Wilson, a travel writer, content creator, and trip designer running motorcycle tours in Mongolia.
Breanna left her life in Los Angeles behind to pursue a path that's anything but traditional.
In this episode, Breanna talks about finally making the decision to pursue her dreams and how that single decision to take action changed her life. She shares with us her perspective on courage, what it means to have authentic travel experiences, and how important it was for her to follow her natural instinct for adventure.
I loved this conversation with Breanna so much because we explore the many facets of self-discovery from our definition of accomplishment to learning how to say no to things that aren't aligned with our vision. I hope you find Breanna’s thoughts on listening to our souls to uncover what we really want as insightful as I did!
“Don't get discouraged if you don't meet that goal, or if you don't get that award or that assignment doesn't get picked up. It will happen if you just continue to learn from it and listen to the feedback and yourself. Don't be afraid to change that vision and readjust it to what's happening in your life and what you want to be happening.”
