I'm thrilled to share with you the latest episode of 85 Percent, where we dive deep into the world of travel, empowerment, and incredible personal growth stories. In this episode, I chatted with the amazing Gabby Beckford, the award-winning travel entrepreneur behind Packs Light. πβ¨Her audience is women who aspire to a life of adventure lived on their terms, and Gabby delivers in many ways from her inspiring content, to her Saas start-up that amplifies funded travel opportunities SeekPTO, and the $30,000 in travel grants she's directly offered to her audience. Because of her accolades she's been featured in national publications like The New York Times, CNNTravel, Travel+Leisure, and more.
But Gabby wasn't always the travel pro we think her to be. In this episode, we're sharing one of Gabby's earliest moments of travel β when she showed up on a 7-day backpacking trip to Iceland with, well, no backpack! Her story reminds us that the most profound growth often comes from stepping far outside our comfort zones and, when necessary, asking for help.
