#1 I Quit My Job, Moved To Canada, And Sold My House To Buy A Van
from Bikini, Bodybuilding & Dietetics · host Tyarra Nelson
The untold story of what's been going on behind the scenes and why I stepped away from the bodybuilding industry. Follow along with my new podcast channel "GONE ON AN ADVENTURE" Instagram: @tyarranelson @vanlife.adventurepodcast Tyarra Nelson is a 29-year-old girl from Australia who quit her job, sold her house, and moved across the world to buy a van and start over. After more than a decade of chasing excellence, earning two degrees, building a business, competing in bodybuilding, and never taking a break, she reached a point where everything looked right on paper… but it all felt completely wrong. Burnt out, disconnected, and craving something real, Tyarra walked away from the “dream” life she had meticulously architected to create one that actually feels meaningful. This podcast is a raw, honest, and unfiltered documentation of that transition - from structure to spontaneity, from routine to adventure, and from climbing ladders of success to finding genuine fulfilment. It’s a space for fun, real-life storytelling from the road, sharing the highs, the lows, and the true realities of van life that aren’t always shown online. Along the way, Tyarra will sit down with other van lifers to explore their stories, lessons, and insights into this unconventional lifestyle - making the podcast both an entertaining listen and a valuable resource for anyone curious about or considering van life. Now based in Canada and travelling across North America, she is choosing memories over materials - seeking real human connection, new environments, life skills, uncomfortable challenges, and epic stories worth telling. For anyone who has ever felt stuck in a life that no longer fits, this is your reminder: it’s okay to start again. Strap in and buckle up - because we’re going on an adventure!
