Hey friends,
A week ago, I had the opportunity to sit down with Laura Ericson on her Type 2 Travel podcast, and let me tell you, this conversation felt different.
Laura introduced me as someone who proves that adventure doesn’t have an expiration date, and honestly, that’s exactly what I want other women to hear.
We talked about:
- What it means to stop following someone else’s timeline and start creating your own.
- How living across Europe and Asia as a military spouse forced me to carve out independence through solo travel and hiking.
- Why the grass isn’t always greener, even when you’re living in Europe.
- The invisible “permission” we think we need before chasing bold choices (spoiler: we don’t).
Through my blog, Kimberly Kephart Travels, I’ve tried to share the messy, beautiful side of building confidence through travel—and this conversation with Laura brought all of that to the surface.
🎧 Listen to the episode here
If you’ve ever felt like you “missed the right window” for an adventure, I think this one will remind you it’s not too late.
Talk soon, my friends,
Kimberly Kephart
