Can you imagine living through a scorching summer with constant blackouts? That's the reality for many on the Dutch side this past month.

This episode is a little different. The constant blackouts are just a small part of what I'm talking about in this not-what-you're-used-to episode.

Recording from my tiny, electricity-deprived apartment, I share how I can turn these adversities into positive moments in life and for Paradise Perspectives. This episode is not just a goodbye to season 2 but an introduction to the exciting changes ahead. Despite the sweltering conditions, I reflect on how this unexpected downtime has provided the perfect backdrop to announce our this new direction.

Season three promises to be transformative, moving beyond travel and Caribbean stories to include empowering stories from solo female travelers and mindful episodes on personal growth and development.  So, tune in for a heartfelt discussion that’s as much about resilience in the face of adversity as it is about the thrilling future of Paradise Perspectives.

Paradise Perspectives with The Traveling Island Girl will be back on Thursday, September 5th, 2024
