About this listen

After Kim and her husband, Brian, decide to quit their jobs to travel around the world, they're given a yellow envelope containing a check and instructions to give the money away. There are only three rules for the envelope: don't overthink it, share your experiences, and don't feel pressured to give it all away. Through Ecuador, Peru, Nepal, and beyond, Kim and Brian face obstacles, including major challenges to their relationship. As they distribute the money to people they encounter along the way, they learn that money does not have anything to do with the capacity to give but that it is the giving of ourselves that is transformational.

I have loved this book & all the stories. I’m not able to travel at the moment & have no idea when/if I’ll be able to do it again. But, this book has reminded me of many travels over the years & helped me travel to new places as the author talks about their experiences in such a wonderful way. Thank you so much for putting these words on a page for us to enjoy.

Vicariously travelling!

loved the booked. lovely story. I felt like I was travelling with these guys, going through their experiences with them. I felt like they were speaking directly to me.
the narration gets a bit irritating at times especially when she's trying to do a man's voice.

Awesome story but narration irritating at times

Utterly unmutable. An envelope reveals a real life journey of soulful discovery. Stories that jog along and feel this real usually are so. At the end of each day the dust settles, the journey unravels, and for good reason the soul gets bigger and whole again.

I was with them all the way.
