SHE TRAVELS: Real Stories of Women Transformed Through Solo Travel with Pascale Landriault

You don't need a divorce, a diagnosis, or a breakdown to change your life. Sometimes you just need to buy a one-way ticket.Pascale Landriault sold her house, gave away her furniture, and flew to Paris in her late 50s with no return date and no plan beyond eventually reaching Bali. Today, at 65, she's still going — and she wrote a book on what solo travel actually does to a woman from the inside out.In this episode, Pascale shares the story that stopped her in her tracks: robbed in Sardinia, left with a bathing suit, a towel, and a phone — no passport, no credit cards, no crypto keys. What happened next wasn't just survival. It was the deepest healing of her life. If you've been waiting for the "right time" to travel solo, or convinced yourself it's too unsafe, too lonely, or too late, this conversation will dismantle every excuse you have.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Why selling everything and leaving in her late 50s wasn't a crisis — it was a callingWhat getting robbed in Sardinia taught her about childhood wounds, surrender, and real freedomThe myth that solo travel is lonely, unsafe, or only for the youngHow to heal by feeling — not fixing, not pushing throughHer two coaching programs for women ready to travel transformatively or go fully nomadicRetreats in Bali (May 2026) and the Moroccan Desert (November 2026)Connect with Pascale here - https://ca.linkedin.com/in/pascale-landriaultWant to learn more about Pascale’s work?

To me, that's mass conditioning.""The biggest act of healing is surrendering. Surrendering to whatever's there and whatever's coming up.""When you try to repress it, it keeps coming back. But if you let it flow through, the cloud moves away quicker.""You don't realize how heavy you are until you're lighter.""The more you shed what's not the real you, the more you realize — I didn't even know I was heavy before.""Vulnerability is courage. First to yourself — and once you can do that, it becomes easier with others too.""There's a gift in every situation. Travel teaches you to trust that everything's going to be okay."CONTACT THE HOSTWebsite |  www.thereikihealingcoach.com Instagram | @sophia_i_got_igInstagram | @createlifeyourwayFacebook | www.facebook.com/sophia.e.754LinkedIn | Sophia Elcock Hosted on Acast.
