Ever feel like life and vacations are stuck on autopilot, following a script written by society? Yeah, me too, but I'm kind of over it. I firmly believe that the key to a happier life and amazing vacations is tossing out the pre-decided life milestones, scripted daily grind, and society's vacation to-do list. Society's one-size-fits-all approach is not the answer – it's time to break away from the default in both life and vacation and customize your experiences. This episode is here to inspire you to take the reins and design a life and vacation that resonate with you. Let's trade in the mundane for the extraordinary and aim for richer, deeper experiences by ditching the default and living life on your own terms. LISTEN BACK:
