🎉 IT'S LAUNCH DAY! 🎉
Back in 5th grade, I was voted "most likely to have their own talk show."
As the overly-empathetic shy kid who cried at everything and literally fainted at the thought of being in the spotlight (no joke), this felt impossible. But here's what 11-year-old me didn't know yet: I didn't want to be seen – I wanted to be heard.
When I started appearing on podcasts, I discovered something magical. It wasn't about how I looked – it was about what I had to say. After 30+ podcast appearances, it clicked: there's a world of difference between performing for cameras and having genuine, soul-stirring conversations with incredible humans.
This podcast has been 3+ years in the making. Three years of procrastination, fear, and honestly, zero time (I can barely unpack a suitcase, let alone launch a whole show). So many moments I talked myself out of it: "Does the world need another travel podcast?" "What if no one listens?" "Do I actually have time for this?"
Spoiler alert: I definitely don't have time for this. But some things are worth making time for.
Today, Type 2 Travel officially launches.
This isn't about me being the star – it's about creating space for amazing people to share their stories. The messy ones. The transformative ones. The ones that don't fit into Instagram squares.
We're diving into travel disasters that became favorite stories, moments that broke you open, and adventures that changed everything. No highlight reels, no "wanderlust" clichés – just honest conversations about how we become who we're meant to be through the places we go.
Episode 1, 2 and 3 drop today on all podcast platforms. Link in comments, or search "Type 2 Travel" on Spotify or Apple Music – we'll be the ones talking about questionable decisions and life-changing adventures.
