In this episode of The Solo Experience Podcast, I sit down with Josh - owner of one of the last V8 79 Series LandCruisers and founder of Barossa Wine Cartel to unpack the big questions behind big purchases.

But this conversation goes far deeper than just a 4WD.

We talk about:
• Travelling as a family vs solo
• Running a business while chasing adventure
• Risk vs logic when investing in something you love
• Building a lifestyle around freedom

Because the solo experience isn't about doing life alone, its about the personal stories that make up the journey.

How do people actually afford to travel full-time?

It’s one of the questions I get asked the most, how I fund my lifestyle while living on the road and travelling around Australia.

From content creation and brand partnerships to remote work, seasonal jobs and freelancing, there are more options than most people realise when it comes to making money while travelling.

If you’ve ever wondered how people make full-time travel sustainable or if you’re dreaming about hitting the road yourself, this episode will give you a realistic look at what it actually takes.

In this episode we cover:
• How I personally fund full-time travel
• The income streams that support my lifestyle on the road
• Different ways people make money while travelling
• The reality of content creation and brand deals
• Tips for creating income while living a travel lifestyle

Making friends as an adult isn’t as easy as it once was.

In this episode of The Solo Experience Podcast, I sit down with my friend Sel to talk about what friendship actually looks like, whether you're travelling full-time like I am, or squeezing adventure into your weeks off like Sel.

Just because you travel solo doesn’t mean you’re isolated. And just because you don’t travel full-time doesn’t mean you can’t build deep, meaningful friendships.

Whether you’re on the road, in your hometown, or somewhere in between, this episode is about community, courage, and putting yourself out there.

In this episode of The Solo Experience Podcast, I’m joined by Emily (Adventure with Emily) to talk all things life on the road; from van life vs 4WD life, to travelling with pets, and how some of the most meaningful friendships are formed completely by chance.

Emily and I met organically while travelling, and what started as a brief crossing of paths turned into a genuine friendship. In this conversation, we dive into what it’s really like to build connections while living a transient lifestyle, the realities of travelling with animals, and how being open to community on the road can change your entire experience.

If you’ve ever wondered:
– Whether van life or 4WD life is right for you
– How people actually meet and form friendships while travelling
– What it’s like travelling with pets full-time
– Or how solo travel doesn’t always mean being alone

This episode is for you.

Confidence is something we’re told we need before we start, but in my experience, it usually comes after.

In this episode of The Solo Experience Podcast, I share real stories from my own life - from supporting a client at a powerlifting meet under pressure, to navigating business and UGC mistakes where confidence was tested (and sometimes completely missing).

I also share listener stories from people building businesses, creating content, and putting themselves out there before they felt ready. Because even the people who look confident on the outside are often figuring it out as they go.

Does choosing a partner mean losing your independence - especially when travel has been such a personal, solo experience?

In this episode, I’m joined by Maddi from She Who Explores to talk about what it really looks like when a solo journey begins to evolve into something shared. We dive into the identity shifts that come with travelling as a couple, the fears around losing autonomy, and how independence can actually grow, not disappear when you’re with the right person.

If you’ve ever wondered whether choosing a partner means giving up parts of yourself or if solo travel has to end once love enters the picture, this episode is for you.
