EP-173 A NEW APPROACH TO LIFE AND RETIREMENT: Embracing a Life of Adventure with the “Wander Women” Kristy and Annette


Listen Later

In this episode of the 10 Adventures podcast, we learn about the incredible journey of Annette and Kristy, also known as the Wander Women, who traded their conventional lives for a life of adventure and exploration. We chat with them about their inspiring transition from traditional jobs to a life on the road, living out of their RV, and exploring the various places on foot. They share how a chance encounter with a book titled How to Die Broke led them to rethink their approach to life and retirement, ultimately pushing them to seek new experiences and embrace uncertainty.

 

We dive deep into their latest adventure on the Via Francigena, a historic pilgrimage route from Lucca to Rome. Annette and Kristy, who also recently achieved the incredible accomplishment of completing the Triple Crown of Hiking—the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT), the Continental Divide Trail (CDT), and the Appalachian Trail (AT)—share their experiences of traversing these iconic American trails. They also share their philosophy on valuing experiences over material wealth and the importance of pushing beyond comfort zones to grow and stay mentally sharp.

 

Whether you’re an avid hiker or someone dreaming of a life less ordinary, this episode is packed with insights and inspiration.
