Episode 6 is a little different ... I've recorded it solo, from Koh Samui, Thailand, during my annual Purpose and Passion Cultural Trip to capture why I created these women-only trips and share what we get up to while I'm actually living it! You'll get an insight into my passion for helping women make time for themselves and, most importantly, the 'purpose' part - seeing first-hand the impact of our chosen charity partner, Sisters on Samui.
This episode is about what it looks like to choose yourself - to step away from routine, embrace adventure, make new connections and to travel with purpose instead of just an itinerary.
Her Time indeed!
Topics covered:
· Why I created the Xplore Purpose and Passion Cultural Trips, and what they're really designed to create
· The reality of taking leave and the importance of self-care for women in leadership and caregiving roles, and why rest rarely happens on its own
· Sisters on Samui, our chosen charity partner, and their community work
· What shifts in women when they get space to reconnect with themselves and expand their connections
Sound bites:
· "Women often put their own health and wellbeing last on the list."
· "This isn't a holiday from your life, it's a chance to come back to yourself."
· "When you support a local charity directly, you see exactly where the impact lands."

I've known Alison Hernandez for decades, and always thing of her adventurous spirit. She's full of energy and has always been ahead of the curve. In this episode, I got to uncover more about Ali's back story and found out just where that drive and future-state thinking came from!
Alison Hernandez has had the unplanned joy of experiencing diverse roles across four countries, transitioning from corporate to entrepreneur, all while embracing the unexpected.
Her early days in hospitality taught her the importance of customer and employee experience. This obsession has been a guiding force throughout her career.
When she took a gap year in 1997, she never imagined it would lead to amazing opportunities like managing careers for the Sydney 2000 Olympics. A game-changer for her future career!
Ali also shares the deep importance of taking care of our own health and wellbeing, and how she's doing just that.
Listen in for Ali's full story of seizing the moment, being client and human-centred and never staying still!
