Ever wonder what happens when you actually design your life around your dream?
In this Best Of episode, host Kim Anderson rewinds the conversation with Lucas Chesterton, founder of Indy Escapes, a travel company creating epic group adventures for solo travelers in dreamy destinations like Kenya, Uganda, Turkey, Croatia, the Maldives, and Bali.
Lucas has explored over 120 countries, but his journey isn’t about ticking off a list. It’s about living with purpose, building meaningful community, and chasing the kind of joy that can’t be faked. In this episode, you’ll hear how he turned a soul-searching question"If money were no object, how would you spend your days?" into a life filled with travel, connection, and real impact.
If you’ve ever dreamed of ditching the 9-to-5, building something meaningful, or living with more freedom and heart, Lucas’ story is your permission slip.

- Why travel is the ultimate connector—and what makes a trip truly transformational
