from French Kissing Life · host Shawnna Stiver
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to say yes to something new, this might be it. In today’s episode, I’m joined by Anna VanAgtmael, founder of Wandering Roots, who shares how a car accident became the catalyst for a completely different kind of life. What started as a season of healing slowly turned into a life built around intention, courage, and connection.We talk about effortless adventure, how to create retreat-style moments in everyday life, and why showing up, just as you are, is its own kind of bravery. Whether you’re dreaming of a faraway trip or simply craving more joy at home, this conversation is a beautiful reminder that transformation doesn’t always need a plan. Sometimes, it just needs one small, brave yes.Topics Covered:How a car accident became the unexpected turning point of Anna’s lifeWhy adventure doesn’t need to be epic to be meaningfulThe quiet magic of doing something that scares you, just a littleThe power of being supported, without needing to prove or performWhat effortless adventure really looks likeHow to create retreat-style moments in everyday lifeLetting go of outdated definitions of success and self-worthWhy delight is not a luxury, it’s a guidepostHere are some actions you can take, whether you have 5 minutes or 50:If you have 5 minutes, I have an article from OmNoire called “Retreat vs. Vacation: What’s the Difference and Which One Do You Actually Need?”https://omnoire.com/blogs/journal/retreat-vs-vacation?If you have 50 minutes, and you’re curious about what a retreat with Anna is like, check out her free DIY retreat guide (which usually costs $39!)https://freebie.yourwanderingroots.com/Anna’s 2-week email series for business owners who want to host retreats: moneymakingretreats.comConnect with Anna!Website: https://www.yourwanderingroots.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourwanderingrootsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-vanagtmael-214973b/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourwanderingroots/ ______________________Contact French Kissing Life PodcastDM us at @shawnnarstiver on Instagram or FacebookConnect with Shawnna Stiver on LinkedInEmail us at [email protected] Until next time, muah! ______________________French Kissing Life is sponsored by Ampersand Copy and Content.
