Unplanned on Purpose: Our Pack Up + Go Escape to Greenville

In this episode of Soul Stories with Jill, I sit down with my friend Michelle to share the story of our unforgettable surprise trip with Pack Up + Go, the travel company that plans your entire getaway and sends you on a mystery adventure. We didn’t know where we were headed until the morning we left, and the moment we arrived, we instantly fell in love with Greenville, South Carolina. It quickly became one of our favorite cities we’ve ever visited, so much so that we’re seriously considering spending Christmas there instead of Chattanooga.We talk about the moment we checked into the breathtaking Grand Bohemian Lodge, a hotel that was every bit as beautiful and luxurious as we hoped. We share our experience of having a relaxing spa day, the joy of slowing down, and how it gave us exactly the reset we both needed. We also dive into the amazing dinners we enjoyed at three fantastic restaurants, each one memorable in its own way and a highlight of the trip.Throughout the episode, we reflect on what it felt like to simply show up and enjoy a perfectly curated vacation without having to plan a single detail. We also talk about the deeper value of taking time to travel with a close friend, laughing, exploring, creating memories, and remembering how important it is to make space for fun, connection, and experiences that fill your soul.This episode is full of friendship, travel inspiration, and our shared love for a city we can’t wait to visit again. If you’ve ever considered doing a Pack Up + Go trip, this conversation will give you a glimpse into the magic of letting go and being surprised.
