A Sock, a Story, and a $4K Irish Adventure Up for Grabs - Don't miss this!

Hello Reader, Years ago, I took a long-haul flight that changed my life—because I ended up in the ER with a blood clot and pulmonary embolism. I was lucky...really lucky that I survived. That experience made me start taking compression socks seriously, especially when I travel. Since then, VIM & VIGR compression socks have been a non-negotiable part of my carry-on. Read about my story of contracting blood clots while flying and how they were discovered When I went to VIM & VIGR and asked to partner with them on their first-ever travel-themed sock, I was thrilled when they said yes. I added my Ottsworld colors, a fun airplane design, and stamped the words Go Explore on the sole—a reminder that travel isn’t just about following, it’s about discovery. AND....THE SOCK LAUNCHED TODAY!! SEE IT IN ACTION! On your next trip, arrive safe, with no swelling, and with more energy! Make sure the Go Explore sock is a part of your packing list!

Hello Reader , Happy March!! This month, I wanted to kick off Women's History Month by highlighting women's travel and resources! Last fall, I led an all-women’s trek in Nepal with World Expeditions—and it reminded me just how powerful it is when women step outside their routines and into the unknown together. I watched women arrive, unsure of themselves, and leave standing at mountain viewpoints with a new sense of confidence and possibility. These trips aren’t just about where you...
Hello Reader , We are one month into 2026 and I'm finally getting around to putting together a little list of where to go in 2026.

Hello Reader , What if “someday” didn’t live in that fuzzy future where dreams go to nap… what if someday was 2026? We all have those trips (or goals) we say we’ll do “when things slow down,” “when I have more time,” or “one of these days.” Trust me, I’ve used those excuses too. But here’s what I’ve learned after almost two decades of chasing adventures around the world: Life doesn’t magically make space for adventure — we have to decide it’s worth prioritizing. So what if this was the year...
