Judi Wineland, world traveler and founder of AdventureWomen explains how a lifetime of extreme travel shaped her idea of “aliveness,” and why the right trip can change your relationship to your body, your confidence, and your attention. She breaks down what happens when women travel together without the labels and expectations they carry at home, and why that can unlock sharper honesty, better friendships, and a renewed sense of play. You’ll hear how awe, discomfort, and laughter become practical tools for building resilience, whether you’re walking an old pilgrimage route in Japan or feeling tiny on the Serengeti. If you want a clear-eyed take on how travel can support wellness, fitness, and personal momentum at any age, this episode is a blueprint.

Key Moments

“It’s not just about travel. And we had these wonderful conversations and we laugh a lot because we also do these trips and go out and challenge ourselves a bit.”

“You have to be open to it. You have to be ready and vulnerable, ready for vulnerabilities.”

“Well, I would want to maybe challenge the fact that not all of us, not all people are as brave. You have to be a little bit vulnerable to allow yourself to be open, to allow others in, to allow the earth in, to allow the air in, to allow things to affect you.”
