TRAVEL THE WORLD WITHOUT BREAKING THE BANK
Kesi Irvin is an Ivy Grad (Wharton!) who quit her finance job in NYC in 2015 to travel the world. She saved money for 2 years, with the intention to travel for a year. Her 1-year break turned into 7 years... and counting! She has learned the ins and outs of long-term travel and now inspires others to take a career break – whether it’s for 3 months, 1 year, or a fully nomadic lifestyle.

"Solo travel pushes you out of your comfort zone, which is so scary to think about but in reality, it’s empowering. You learn what you are capable of. Realizing what you can do alone is so empowering, and can carry over to being bold in other parts of your life." - Listener & frequent solo traveler, Jen Skinner
