Transformational travel starts with intention and ends in mindful action. It is "intentionally traveling to stretch, learn, and grow into new ways of being and engaging with the world." This is the ethos of the Transformational Travel Council, and in this episode, Christine and TTC Co-Founder Jake Haupert leave no stone unturned in the conversation around transformation and all of the joy and discomfort that are inherently braided into it.Consider a time you traveled and came back a changed person. (Maybe every time, right?) This conversation will have you reflecting on your own travels, exploring your way of being in the world, and considering the themes of transformation in your own journey - whether internal or abroad.
