WOMEN MAKE 85% OF TRAVEL DECISIONS.
SO WHY ARE WE NOT IN 85% OF TRAVEL STORIES?

Join Beth Santos, founder of Wanderful, the world's leading community for women travelers, creators, and entrepreneurs, as she cuts into the underbelly of an industry that's predominantly made up of women, yet still fails to include them.

Each episode, Beth sits down with women reshaping the future of travel to talk about what it will actually take for this industry to work for all of us.

Season 3 celebrates the winners of our 2026 Bessie Awards. New episodes are live now.

Listeners: share your travel story!

At the end of each episode in Season 2, we’ll share a travel story from one of our listeners. You can submit your story here.

This should be a 2-3 minute recording of a moment that changed you during your travels. It may be something that surprised you, a funny or harrowing experience, or something else that gave you an important lesson about travel.
