A Millennial Mind

Why Solo Travel Will Change Your Life (And Make You Unstoppable)


Listen Later

In this episode of Millennial Mind, I’m sharing my personal experience of solo traveling—how I ended up in India alone, what I learned, and why I believe traveling solo can be one of the most transformative experiences of your life. From dealing with judgment and navigating safety concerns to discovering self-confidence and the power of solitude, I break down everything you need to know about embracing time alone.


If you've ever considered taking a solo trip (or hesitated because of fear or societal expectations), this episode is for you.
