"Take off on a quest or a personal search until you find yourself. You either find yourself or decide to go home."--Bel Woodhouse
Great Escape Radio host, Jody Maberry and Great Escape Publishing Director, Lori Allen introduce us to Bel Woodhouse.
"Bel is quite the spitfire," says Lori. "She's an ex-Navy kick butt woman!"
Bel makes an indelible impression on everyone she meets. With her combination of British and Australian slang, she inspired the attendees at last September's Ultimate Travel Writer's Workshop in Austin, Texas where she was on the success panel.
Formerly in the Royal Australian Navy, she now lives in Mexico.
"I left the Navy, sold everything, went on a walkabout, and ended up in Guatemala teaching English for a couple of years."
Bel attended her first Travel Workshop in Washington DC and decided she was going to write full time.
Today she's living in Cozumel and loving the life she's created. She's added photography and creating travel videos to her skills too. Listen in as she shares her entertaining and inspiring story.
You can get started in Bel's footsteps when you join us at The Ultimate Travel Writer's Workshop this year. Live seats are SOLD OUT. But there's a way to attend from the comfort of your home—and get access to every insider tip and secret—at a fraction of the price. Details here.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
