For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Jen Ruiz, a former attorney turned full-time travel expert, TEDx speaker, author, and the creator of the acclaimed travel blog, Jen on a Jet Plane.
Jen's journey began in the legal world, where she was on track for a long and successful career as an attorney. But after a period of reflection and solo travel during her final year of law practice. She made a bold decision to leave her firm and pursue a life of adventure. Since then, she's visited dozens of countries solo, embraced immersive cultural experiences, and built a thriving platform to help others travel more and seek out possibilities.
In this episode, Jen shares the story behind her career shift and what it took to walk away from a stable profession in pursuit of her passion. She talks about the highs and lows of solo female travel, her most memorable cultural experiences, and the unexpected challenges she's faced along the way. Jen also highlights her bestselling travel books, her inspiring TEDx talks, and how she's empowering others to see the world on their own terms.
Stay to the end, we have a special surprise guest joining us!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
