Group Trips Help Women Travel Braver with Doni Belau of Girl's Guide to the World // 180

You can feel it when life gets too crowded with roles: mom, partner, caretaker, employee, planner. The calendar stays full, but you start to wonder where you went. That’s why this conversation with Doni Belau, founder of Girl's Guide to the World, hits so hard. She shares what happened when she finally took a month to travel on her own and discovered something simple and life-changing: she could enjoy her own company again, make choices on the fly, and come home stronger.We get practical about solo travel for women and why “going alone” is often less about loneliness and more about reclaiming agency. Doni explains how women-only group tours can be the perfect first step if you want independence without the stress of handling every detail, especially the dreaded solo dinner table. We also talk about the psychology of travel, including the power of a pattern interrupt, how new places force your brain to wake up, and why connection and community are central to women’s wellness travel.Safety comes up too, with real talk about media-driven fear, naming specific risks, and planning with data and common sense. Doni shares her love for Japan, her complicated relationship with India, and how meaningful itineraries can include culture, conversation, and supporting women entrepreneurs around the world.
