  • Life at 3 MPH: Finding Connection in a World That Moves Too Fast - With Melissa Clover | #139

    Life at 3 MPH: Finding Connection in a World That Moves Too Fast - With Melissa Clover | #139
    Jun 3 2026
    Melissa Clover grew up surrounded by adventure, but after years of guiding travelers through Yellowstone and Grand Teton, she's learned that people rarely remember the miles ridden or the wildlife they spotted. They remember how they felt. In this episode, Melissa shares how a 70-year family outfitting legacy (Wilderness Trails Outfitters) has created a space where strangers become friends, solo travelers find community, and busy people finally slow down. We discuss life at "three miles per hour," the rise of solo female travel, what we've lost as we've become more disconnected from one another, and why authentic experiences in the outdoors continue to resonate in an increasingly digital world.

    Someday Isn’t Coming: Building a Life You Love - With Liz Long | #138
    May 27 2026
    Liz Long didn’t set out to become a full-time traveler. After graduating college and starting a publishing career in Boston, she found herself burned out, anxious, and questioning the version of success she had been chasing. What started with pet sitting and budget travel eventually turned into a lifestyle built around freedom, wellness, meaningful relationships, and intentional living. Since then, Liz has traveled across more than 25 countries while finding creative ways to make long-term travel financially sustainable. In this episode, we talk about the realities of solo travel, loneliness, money, community, wellness, and what it actually takes to build a life you genuinely love instead of waiting for “someday.”
