  • Bridging the Gap: Travel Inclusion and Equity with Brandon Miller of Too Fly Foundation
    Feb 20 2025
    How can access to travel transform someone's life? Brandon Miller is the co-founder and director of brand strategy for Too Fly Foundation, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide passports, travel grants, and educational experiences for students in underresourced communities. In this episode, Brandon shares how his travel experiences shaped his outlook and ultimately led to his work creating a world where every student has the opportunity to travel. We discuss the challenges of travel for these communities, how he went from a fun idea with friends in a bar to advocating for systemic change, and how his experience on The Kelly Clarkson Show amplified their mission. Brandon's story proves that small actions can lead to big change, and our conversation offers valuable perspectives on the importance of supporting travel equity, fostering inclusion, and always staying curious. How can you bring awareness to travel equity and inclusion on your adventures? I'd love to hear your thoughts and hope you'll share them by sending me an audio message.

  • 9 Ways Travel Will Change You + Lessons from Cycling Africa and Visiting 95 Countries with Alex Hennock
    Feb 18 2025
    What would it be like to cycle the entire length of Africa? What are the most important lessons that travel can teach us? Alex Hennock is a 28-year-old Australian who's already traveled to nearly half the countries in the world, mostly overland. At the time of this recording, Alex is on a life-changing journey, cycling the length of Africa while raising money for Pure Water for Africa. His travels have taken him from the deserts of Namibia to the jungles of Tanzania, and his thoughtful approach to travel has given him a unique perspective on risk, resilience, and the power of human connection. In this episode, Alex shares stories from his epic adventure, how his approach to travel has evolved over the years, and nine key lessons that travel has taught him along the way. This conversation is full of practical travel wisdom and adventure stories and is a powerful reminder that travel can push us beyond our limits in the best way possible. Alex's journey highlights how travel challenges our worldview, reshapes our priorities, and helps us appreciate the beauty of stepping into the unknown. PLUS: You'll hear part two of our mini-series featuring the five best road trips in the USA! What's one unexpected lesson you've learned while traveling? How did it change your perspective? I'd love to hear about it, and I hope you'll share by sending me an audio message. Premium Passport: Get ad-free episodes, exclusive content, and access to all episodes for only $3/month.

Tune In To Learn: Why Alex decided to trade fast travel for a 10,000-kilometer bike ride through Africa The most surprising lessons he's learned from traveling through "dangerous" places How to shift your mindset from focusing on the worst-case scenario to embracing the best-case possibilities Why your pre-travel worries rarely match your actual travel challenges How he handles logistics (like finding water in remote areas) while cycling through Africa Why traveling slower and deeper can be more rewarding than rushing to hit every destination How doing hard things while traveling builds resilience and shifts your perspective The importance of being flexible and leaving room for serendipity in your travels How Alex's journey is helping provide clean water for communities through Pure Water for Africa And so much more Resources: Join Zero To Travel Premium Passport Sign up for our FREE newsletter Visit Alex’s website Subscribe on YouTube Follow on Instagram Want More?

  • Top 10 Places We’re Dying to Visit that We’ve Never Been
    Feb 13 2025
    Join me for a coffee chat with my wife, Anne Dorthe, as we share the top 10 places we’re dying to visit. We break down our dream locations into five categories: mountains, cities, beaches, historical sites, and spiritual destinations. And since we didn’t share our lists ahead of time, we get to surprise each other along the way! We talk about the places that keep pulling us in, what makes a destination feel like a must-visit, and how personal experiences shape our travel wish lists. As we go through our picks, you’ll find new places to add to your list and inspiration for your next trip. What are the top places you’re dying to visit? I'd love to hear what they are, and I hope you’ll share by sending me an audio message. *This is a previously released episode from the archives!
