Doing things that are out of the norm comes easier when you go on a vacation. Staying in your comfort zone is impossible to do if you\u2019re planning to see the world. Judy a mother of six and a former nurse who helps bring the wounded back from Vietnam to her country, the United States, developed a strong sense for traveling as she flew all over the world. As she progresses more in life, got married, had children, went through divorce, she began to gradually lose that feeling of being empowered, resulting in her losing her spirit for traveling. Just when she thought that all is lost, there\u2019s still a bright future out there waiting to be experienced, and that\u2019s when she came to the epiphany that she needed not to be in a slump! She took action and followed that small voice inside her head that prompted her to change and reclaim what she had lost, and decided that it\u2019s time!So she researched and found WTT and thought to herself: This is it, this is the time of my life! &amp;nbsp; Key Takeaways:  Her life as a nurse back in her prime days and what triggered her to have a strong sense for traveling and adventure. How she lost her spirit and sense for adventure when traveling, how she developed her anxiety and how she took action to get back up from it. The fun and historical moments from her Italy trip. Traveling fills up our mind. It teaches us about different the history of the world, different cultures, customs and traditions as well as language, art, music and food! Exercising helped not only her physical health but also made her feel better, stronger and rejuvenated.  &amp;nbsp; Mentioned in This Episode: Women-Traveling.com Women Traveling Together on Facebook Email: wttmail@women-traveling.com &amp;nbsp; Share your story! &amp;nbsp; If you have solo travel stories you'd like to share, or topics you'd like to hear more about, email us at&amp;nbsp;wttmail@WomenTraveling.com&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Leave a Review: Did you like this episode?
