In this episode of Soul of Travel, Season 5: Women's Wisdom + Mindful Travel, presented by @journeywoman_original, Christine hosts a soulful conversation with Amanda Kendle, host of the Thoughtful Travel Podcast.

Amanda’s motto is: Why just have one career when I can do everything I love all at once? In March 2016, Amanda launched The Thoughtful Travel Podcast, one of the most downloaded travel podcasts in Australia. She speaks with fellow travel-lovers about many of the wonderful ways travel has changed their lives, but also about how we can make sure that travel is a force for good for others, too. As a passionate advocate for thoughtful travel, Amanda tries to stay immersed in this space, and this has led to her role as the Vice President of the board of the RISE Travel Institute. Amanda also offers social media and blogging training and speaking engagements, where she facilitates workshops, training sessions, and keynote addresses on online presence, digital marketing, and responsible tourism.

Christine and Amanda discuss:

· Amanda’s podcast, The Thoughtful Travel Podcast
· Amanda’s travel blog, Not a Ballerina, and what it has been like to keep up a travel blog for nearly 20 years!
· What Amanda loves about podcasting
· RISE Travel Institute and the work RISE is doing to educate and inspire mindful travelers and travel professionals
· The importance of mindful travel
