I have always wondered if there were things I wasn't answering in the podcast or online in general.. So this week, I asked 5 of my followers to hop on the episode and interview me to ask me ANYTHING that I may not have shared yet. Meet a few of people who have been following my journey on the road and hear what they've always wanted to know. @amor.aventura / @vanlifemegan / @the.happy.hippy.life / @learnsomethingpod / @moniquellima_

Christian is a wonderful friend of mine who is working full-time at REI while building out his second budget-friendly van. He's been on the road for over a year now while working a stationary job proving that remote income and van life don't have to go hand-in-hand right away. Christian is building is photography portfolio to become remote down the line but brings in money in the meantime with a more location dependent position.

I can't be fake like overnight parking is on my mind right now. I'm a human going through some thangs. So that's what I'm choosing to share. I learned in therapy that trauma can be remembered in your body even better than it is in your mind. Also, white privilege on the road is super real. Lastly, hi hello I'm starting a coffee brand. Random episode? Yes. Helpful? Hopefully.

It's been awhile since I just sat down & chatted with you about mental health, anxiety & all things my brain.

ALSO how does van life help my mental health?! Let's talk!

It's not all about big numbers or lots of "likes". It's about loving your mission so much that you want the whole damn world to hear it. When you're determined to share your message with the masses, you do care about growth. I can't promise you the results... That's on you. I can, however, tell you exactly what I did to get myself where I am today. I believe in you to do with that what you will.. We are all waiting to hear your voice.

After Lee & I discussed our break up, I thought it would be helpful to hear from two people who have been together for 30 years, my sweet parents. They bring us through their journey together starting at a nightclub. We listen to how they've moved through difficult times, come to accept the other person's flaws and continue choosing each other every day. This is a *real* love story... imperfect & all.

After backpacking, van living and sailing the world, Dylan Magaster joins us to share how traveling the world started for him with only a bag and a little money. He made a deal with his mom that if he couldn't make it work in 5 years, he would come back and live a "normal" life. Learn how having a deep passion for something can push you to your limits -like making 150 Youtube videos before making money- but ultimately, keep you going to achieve your goals and explore the world.

Lee and I broke up a few months ago and we've been taking that time to work on ourselves separately to heal & grow as individuals. Since making the decision to quarantine together, we have been communicating things with each other that we never did while dating. We're learning how to talk more, be more effective when we do, & so much more. This week we share what lead to the break up, what we've learned since, & how we made the decision to isolate together in the first place. I...

After last week's episode, two people approached me to express their feelings about the conversation.. They were not good feelings. One took the mature approach with an open discussion while the other.. not so much. I'll admit when I'm wrong so this week I correct where I made mistakes and I'll also share my perspective on having a productive versus hateful conversation when it comes to sensitive topics.

The Coronavirus has affected us all in very different ways so this week I sat down with Katie (@soweboughtavan) to discuss how it's affected people living in vans and also influenced some negativity in the van life community. It's easy to point fingers and tell everyone what YOU think they should do. But the truth is, you don't know. We rant, we laugh, and talk a little sh*t.
