"I needed to challenge myself to find that part of myself again, and Women Who Explore was right in front of me", Mel Telford. The Better Normal and Alfonsina Carissimo recently chatted with one our Canadian Ambassadors. Mel's journey with Women Who Explore showcases how the outdoors helped her reconnect with herself, form friendships on mountain peaks, and foster resilience. Through nature, she’s found community and healing, embracing every step as a path to her truest self. Read more about how Mel uses outdoor adventures to uplift and empower women in their personal growth and well-being. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gJP6DaRZ

FOUR YEARS ✈️ 🌎 🥾🏕️ A note from our Co-Owners... Wow, it’s been 4 years since we took the leap and took over Women Who Explore! It feels like yesterday we were deciding whether buying a travel company during a pandemic was really a good idea—but we knew we couldn’t pass up the chance to own something we loved so much.   From zero trips in 2020 to planning 35 for 2025—what a ride! Our ambassador program has grown to 248 women, and we’ve even expanded our local chapters internationally. With over 200k women in our groups and more than 1,000 free events last year, from beginner backpacking to foodie meetups, it’s wild to think how much has happened.   When you join a Women Who Explore adventure, you’re supporting a small, women-owned business, and every trip is personally crafted by us. We’re always adapting and adding new destinations based on your feedback (and, of course, our own bucket list!). Can’t wait to see where the next year takes us! Here’s to many more adventures ahead! Lindsey Egan & Melissa Wright P.S. If you haven’t heard the full story of how we got started, you can check it out here: https://lnkd.in/gEPkec2g
