Travel for the Soul: Building a Business & Life You Love w/ Indy Escapes Creator, Lucas Chesterton #83
Ever dream of quitting your day job and designing a life around travel?
Our guest this week, Lucas Chesterton, did just that! Founder of Indy Escapes, a travel company curating epic adventures for solo travelers, Lucas has a serious case of wanderlust (and a passport to match – he's already explored 120 countries!).
In this episode, we talk about the question that changed everything for Lucas: "If money were no object, how would you spend your days?"
His answer? Travel, explore, and connect with like-minded adventurers. That's exactly what Indy Escapes is all about – creating unforgettable group trips to destinations like Kenya, Uganda, Turkey, Croatia, the Maldives, and Bali.
But here's the thing: Lucas isn't driven by building a travel empire.
He's passionate about helping others discover the joy of travel and the magic of connection, no matter how many countries you've visited.
Tune in to hear Lucas' inspiring journey and learn how the power of travel can connect us with ourselves and the world around us.
In a world that often prioritizes bigger and better, Lucas' story is a breath of fresh air – a reminder that true fulfillment lies in designing a life you love, not just a business that grows.
