Life In Motion

What happens when you stop waiting for “someday” and book the ticket anyway?In this episode we sit down with Amanda Black, founder of The Solo Female Traveler Network, a global community helping women explore the world with confidence, connection, and support. After years of backpacking solo across countries like Honduras, India, and Mongolia, Amanda turned her own leap-of-faith travels into a movement—creating small-group adventures that blend independence with built-in community.From getting robbed in Mexico to launching her first Bali trip through a simple Facebook group, Amanda shares how uncertainty became opportunity—and how travel can reshape the way we see ourselves and the world. This is a story about courage, resilience, and discovering that sometimes the best way forward is simply to go.Life in Motion is brought to you by Actual Outdoors.
