How a Corporate VP Became a Full-time Travel Influencer (Best of Series) #180
You followed the rules. You checked all the boxes. So why does it still feel like you're living someone else’s dream?
In this Best Of episode, host Kim Anderson revisits one of the most powerful and soul-stirring conversations from last summer with travel blogger and content creator Bea Mitiner of Bea Adventurous.
Bea had it all: a high-powered corporate job, a successful marriage, and the kind of life that checked all the boxes. But something didn’t feel right. So she made the boldest decision of her life - she left it all behind to travel, create, and pursue a life that actually felt like hers.
In this episode, you’ll hear how Bea sold everything, ended her marriage, and set off on a year-long journey across Sub-Saharan Africa to build a travel business rooted in meaning and connection. She shares the raw truths of that leap - what it cost her, what it gave her, and how it reshaped everything.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
- Why leaving a “good life” can be the hardest decision of all
- How to build a business aligned with your values, not just your resume
- Why redefining success means going beyond money, metrics, and titles
If you’ve ever looked around and wondered, “Is this really it?”—this episode is your sign.
Press play and get inspired to build a life that feels like your own.
