Fostering Women’s Leadership in Adventure Travel with Kathy Dragon

Soul of Travel: Women's Wisdom and Mindful Travel

In this episode of Soul of Travel, Season 5: Women's Wisdom + Mindful Travel, presented by @journeywoman_original, Christine hosts a soulful conversation with Kathy Dragon.

Kathy has over three decades of experience spanning every facet of the travel industry and continues to believe in the power of travel to bring about positive change in the world. Since she began in the travel industry in 1987, Kathy has been involved in over a dozen startups, with limited success and extensive personal learning. She’s been a founder of several of her own companies, including The Dragon’s Path Cultural Walking Tours, ActiveWomen.com, TravelDragon.com, and Whole Journeys. Personally, Kathy’s a bit of a tech geek, an enthusiastic photographer, and consistently imagines new business ventures, products, and opportunities almost daily. She's unsure of what is next for her.

Christine and Kathy discuss:

· The changes in the travel industry over the last 25 years
· What these changes have been like for women in the adventure travel industry
· How we can set out to create the changes we want to make
· Big Magic ideas and where to invest our time and energy
· How to work in a way that continues to spark inspiration and joy
