Elaine Rodriguez on International Travel and Following Your Calling

Dancing in the Discomfort Zone with Anne Bonney

Travel! If you know me, you know I love doing it, and will get any chance I get to extoll the benefits. (I’m even writing a TED talk about it…but that’s for another episode!) But why should I extoll the benefits when I can get someone else to do it, so this week I welcome Elaine Rodriguez (www.elainerodriguez.com) to talk abouther experience with travel and how she made it into a career!

We talk about

• Her first travel experience
• How the discomfort of being laid off from her job prompted a massive positive life change
• How she became a traveling international tour guide! (who knew that was a job! I didn’t, otherwise I would have been one 25 years ago!)
• How she has turned it into her current career
