Can we have a little chat about comfort zones and neuroplasticity?

Yes? Amazing.

This was my first night in South Korea and I was on my own. It was soooooooo uncomfortable for me. Even as someone that has lived and studied in Asia before. It wasn’t Korea before.

But I pushed through. I needed to eat. I did what I could. Tried to be kind and respectful although I felt like a terrible tourist for not knowing even the basics on how or what to order. Ended up with WAY too much food for one person. But I ate. I did it. I survived.

And guess what, the next time was easier and easier.

My brain and comfort level changed as I pushed the boundaries of where my brain wanted to keep me. Safe in my hotel room.

By the end of the trip, I was wondering all day, shopping, eating, ordering, and navigating this unfamiliar world all on my own without hesitation.

Travel more. Change your brain. Grow your world. Enrich your life. 🫶🏼

The part that hits hardest is…

I’m a mom of 3. And I would give anything for my kids to be able to just keep being kids for as long as possible.

I think tapping back into my own childlike wonder, curiosity, and sense of adventure only helps me feed that zest for life into my kids too.

My goal is for them to keep exploring, taking chances, making mistakes (a la Ms Frizzle), meeting new people, and staying curious about the world….just like their momma. 🫶🏼

I got a DM after my reel yesterday that said:

“Matt watching this reel 👀”

My response: “he understands 😂”

Grateful that my partner knows what this job requires, including travel. Which is absolutely FULL of fun, but also is packed with site inspections, travel partner conversations and meetings, and professional development sessions.

That being said, I love when I get a chance to bond with my girlfriends on a trip (work or leisure!)

FYI, Virgin Voyages just realized some amazing deals plus book with me for additional bonus bar tab! DM or email me for more details! 🛳️

Relationships with anything can have ups and downs, but I know I’ll never be able to quit an airport 💓

Climbing to the top of St. Peter’s Basilica in January of 2020 only rivals climbing back up the 4th tunnel in the DMZ during my trip to South Korea this past summer as the toughest climb with the greatest pay off.

Granted, the 4th tunnel climb was after the payoff…but the blowing fan in the lobby and cold water bottle at the top was a great reward for making it back out!

Tell me about the toughest hike during your travels that was WELL worth the struggle!

Sometimes you go half way around the world, find an amazing view, and just stop and let time pass. Just be.

Also, spoiler, you don’t have to go around the world to do this. But it can be extra special I think 😂 Says the travel planner…

I think Amy would agree, a travel agent friend is the best kind of friend. 😂

I can take the stress of the planning and the details off your plate too!

Also, can we just take a moment to gush about how gorgeous Secrets Playa Esmeralda Resort and Spa is in Miches, Dominican Republic? It was the perfect escape for Amy…and a great place for a conference for me too. 😂
