S4 Ep75: Creating a New Normal Through Solo Travel

Solo travel can make a massive impact on your sense of confidence and independence. Lots of women travel solo for this reason, and they span across all ages and backgrounds. In fact, according to a 2020 report, 47% of travelers with Overseas Adventure Travel are registered as ‘solo' - and 85% of these solo travelers are women. In this episode, we chat with Charlotte Simpson, aka Traveling Black Widow. After losing her husband of 31 years, she decided to begin traveling solo so that she could start building a new normal for herself, and see the world.  GUEST: Charlotte Simpson LINKS & RESOURCES OVER 85% OF SOLO TRAVELERS ARE WOMEN- ADVENTURE TRAVEL REPORTS THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSOR, WORLD NOMADS!
