Earlier this week, we shared part one of this conversation, all about how to create more adventures in your life. And I tell ya, while I do love to have deep, profound conversations on the podcast, this month of light, playful topics like these have really been fun as a palette cleanser. My inner child has been really craving a bit of travel and adventure lately and so I’ve done the thing and booked in a couple of epic adventures this summer that I’m really, really looking forward to.
Now, if you haven’t heard part one, go back and listen to that one first. But if you’re ready to continue on, let’s pick back up here with my conversation with travel agent Bridget Scotti as she simplifies how to create more adventures in your life.
Here’s how.

My special guest today is Bridget Scotti and she’s simplifying how to create more adventures in your life.
We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:
- Why she believes it’s so important to have more spontaneity in your life, especially through travel and exploration
- How you can determine your level of comfort in travel and your appetite for risk when it comes to adventuring and taking trips
- A few practical tips that would help you plan an epic road trip this summer
- Have you heard of this yet? How “surprise destination travel planning” works and what types of trips she plans for her clients all over the US
- …and ultimately, she gave us some valuable insight and tips for solo travel, especially if you’re a woman traveling alone this summer. How to stay safe, have fun, and see new sights on your own.
All this month, we are focused on the theme of “Adventure + Play” to shake things up a bit… bring a lighter energy to the podcast and to our earbuds.
