Episode 74: Fall 2021 TWM Intern Team

Author: Mike Schibel, Travel With Meaning December 29, 2021 Duration: 46:32

Hello Meaningful Travelers!

This is the last episode of  season 4 and of 2021.  We finished the year with an in person conversation with our Fall intern team.  On this episode we hear from each of the interns about the podcast episodes they produced, what principles of How To Travel With Meaning they connected with, stories they created and what were their big takeaways for this semester. 

The intern team played a huge part in isolating principles from past podcast episodes and creating two meaningful audio visual trailers that incorporated the principles that were organically shared by guests. Click here and here to watch / listen to the videos created by Thomas Akiona and Garrett Coleman. Make sure you visit Travel With Meaning website and Youtube channel to check out great blogs and videos from the intern team. 

All of the work and research the intern team did 

This was a very talent bunch and we can't wait to see where their journeys take them.   A big thank to the Fall 2021 intern for their contributions to the future of meaningful travel storytelling with TWM - thank you Trisha Sacramone, Sierra Sorrentino, Garrett Coleman, Amrit Pannu, Amogh Matthews, Thomas Akiona and Daniela Lobo-Rivera. 

 


Mike Schibel sits down with a fascinating array of guests on Travel With Meaning, but the destination is rarely the main point. Instead, this podcast explores the profound personal shifts that happen when we step outside our familiar surroundings. Each conversation delves into a specific journey-whether it’s a life-altering pilgrimage, a chaotic business trip that sparked a new idea, or a simple vacation that unexpectedly clarified a career path. You’ll hear from artists, athletes, entrepreneurs, and seasoned travel experts, but the focus remains on the transformative moment, the insight gained, or the connection made that reverberated long after the suitcase was put away. Schibel, founder of Travel With Meaning, guides these discussions with a genuine curiosity, allowing his guests to unpack not just their itineraries but the emotional and professional baggage they carried with them. The stories reveal how travel acts as a catalyst, reshaping identities, forging unexpected creative directions, and offering a new lens on one’s place in the world. Listening feels like being part of an intimate, thoughtful dialogue where the map of a life is redrawn by the roads taken. This isn't about recommendations or tips; it's about the lasting imprint of a place on a person. The podcast consistently uncovers how the world, in all its diverse complexity, has a way of teaching us exactly what we need to learn, often when we least expect it.
