ABOUT OUR GUEST: 

Jen Tenzer is the founder of The Soloist, a hub for all things related to solo travel, including one-on-one solo travel planning, boutique retreats, and travel blog resources. After a 10+ year career in investment banking in Manhattan, she was burnt out and ready for a reset. She started The Soloist to fuel her passion for inspiring others to travel beyond their comfort zone, both literally and figuratively. She's an accredited travel agent who caters to solo female travelers and is committed to ensuring her clients feel safe and comfortable exploring the world alone.

TOPIC: 

Traveling by yourself is one of the greatest things that you can do for your personal development and self care, but it can be a daunting idea, especially as a woman. Jen Tenzer offers end-to-end travel services for new and experienced solo travelers to help them create their idea of the perfect vacation. We talk about what sparked the idea for The Soloist, her top tips for people embarking on their first trip by themselves, and the best ways to prepare for a solo vacation. She shares why it’s so beneficial to get out into the world on your own and resources to make sure you’re safe and protected while you’re traveling.  

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Jen’s first solo trip to Chilean Patagonia 
  • The liberation of taking yourself on a vacation 
  • Top places for first-time solo travelers 
  • The importance of getting comfortable being alone before traveling by yourself 
  • How to prepare for potential cultural differences 
  • Must-haves on your packing list 
  • Discovering who you are when you travel alone 
  • Jen’s vision for The Soloist group wellness retreats

Corinne and Natalie introduce Hottie of the Week: Reese Witherspoon 


WINE RATING:

WRAP UP:

To wrap up the episode, we play Facts and Hacks (and Snacks) while munching on Partake chocolate chip cookies. Corinne’s fact that Google Images was created after Jennifer Lopez wore her infamous 2000 Grammys jungle print Versace dress. Nat’s hack is that if you put a couple drops of your favorite essential oil on the filter of your vacuum, you can avoid that musty vacuum smell and make your space smell amazing.
