In this episode of The SELF (R)EVOLUTION Podcast, host Breanna Rae Blaney shares the transformational impact that solo travel has had on her life, and how it can change yours, too. After burning out in private equity, Breanna took her first solo trip to Costa Rica to decompress. What began as a vacation became a powerful portal for self-discovery, clarity, and spiritual growth. Since then, she’s made solo travel a sacred part of her yearly rhythm. Whether you're craving clarity, courage, or simply a deeper connection with yourself, this episode will inspire you to consider making solo travel part of your own self-revolution. In this conversation, Breanna explores:

  • Why solo travel can feel intimidating (and why that’s a good thing)
  • How spending time alone in a new place reveals your inner truth
  • The fears, breakthroughs, and magic that unfold when no one’s watching
  • How to choose where to go and how to structure your trip
  • Why solo travel helps you return home more grounded, clear, and connected

Tune in and learn how time alone, especially in nature, can realign your path and reconnect you with who you truly are.
