In this episode of The Bold Route Podcast, I’m joined by one of my favorite people—my former teaching partner and lifelong adventurer, Heather Brumley.
In this first half of our conversation, we talk about:
- What it means to live boldly in different seasons of life
- Where Heather’s passion for travel came from
- The difference between traveling and vacationing
- Her top three favorite places so far
- A few hilarious stories from her travels
- And a whole lot of laughter, encouragement, and permission to live boldly
Heather is a natural storyteller with a heart for adventure and a ton of wisdom to share—and we laughed a lot in this one.
