    Summary:

    I am joined by one of my dearest and most inspirational & compassionate friend's, Deena Watson. It is a rarity for our paths to cross as there are very few moments through the course of time that our times and energies can align and have our deep conversations. So I finally convinced Deena to jump on and talk about her growth and passion for travelling. Deena has grown immense passion for world travelling and has experienced what the world has to offer. We dive deep in discussing her experiences from travelling. Of course, we attach it to personal development & self-discovery.

I hope this episode gives you the inspiration and insight when it comes to travelling and growing your identity through worldly experience.
