Empowering women through travel and fashion isn’t just a mission—it’s a movement. In this episode, I sit down with Frances Helena, a solo traveler, designer, and survivor who has turned her lived experience into purpose. Through her upcycled fashion line and the Beautifully Diverse Fashion Movement, Frances is using creativity and advocacy to open doors for women around the world—especially those navigating life after trauma.

In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, Frances shares how her journey of empowering women through travel and fashion began with her own healing after abuse. She opens up about traveling solo while living with hearing loss, designing inclusive fashion with impact, and how she’s creating space for every woman to feel seen, valued, and celebrated.

In This Episode, We Explore…

• How Frances turned personal healing into a global mission
• The realities of solo travel while navigating hearing loss
• How upcycled fashion and sustainability play a role in advocacy
• The vision behind her Beautifully Diverse Fashion Movement
• Encouragement for women who want to travel or express themselves creatively after hardship
