The Unexpected Way Travel Re-Inspired My Soul-Aligned Business
Maybe you don’t need to work harder… maybe you just need to book a trip and have an adventure.
Are you feeling blocked or stuck in your soul business or mission? Lacking creativity and motivation? Feeling a bit "blah” and uninspired?
When I’m feeling stuck in a rut in my healing and jewelry businesses, this is what I love to do…
Invest in a trip!!! ✨
I just got back from a lovely one-week trip to London and Bristol in the UK. I lived in Bristol for three years while attending the University of Bristol for my undergraduate degree, so I still have a few good friends there.
It was so heart-warming connecting with my friends and adventuring around again, 15+ years older and wiser lol.
Seven Dials area of central London. I love the traditional, iconic look of British pubs!
I didn’t go just to get fresh ideas for my businesses. I really went for adventure and reconnecting with my old friends.
But, the trip really benefited my healing and jewelry businesses in unexpected ways!
The Benefits of Travel and Adventure for Your Soul-Aligned Business
Renewed Creative Energy & Fresh Inspiration
Adventuring and exploring unlocks your creative channels! As you see new and different things, your brain shifts out of the ordinary and can start receiving more creative ideas.
I also love to enjoy all kinds of art when I travel— street art, museums, gardens, flowers, architecture. I find it really inspires me and ignites the creativity in my own life and business, too.

New Ideas from Other Businesses
Do you also get inspired by other small businesses? I love walking down the street and seeing what other people are doing differently.
It really inspires me to be more innovative and unique in how I present and market my own businesses.
I love how inherently creative being an entrepreneur is! The options really are limitless to what you can create and make money with.
This “cakery and biscuitier” really has a vibe. And I like it.
Being More Playful and Making Heart-Felt Connections
When’s the last time you were super silly? Laughing and having fun?
That kind of playful energy is infectious and really attracts people to your brand and business when you embody it. It’s a form of magnetism. It’s a type of light that pulls people towards you, like moths to a lamp.
I’m swimming across the Thames! 🤣
It’s also lovely to connect with friends and family that you don’t see on a daily basis. Or meeting new people from different walks of life. Connecting with others activates and cleanses your heart chakra.
It blesses you with a sweetness that, again, attracts people to you and your business. After all, you probably make money by selling something to other humans.
That loving energy really helps you build long-term relationships and bind people to you like glue.
Me with friends from my university days. It felt like no time had passed! So grateful.
Being Inspired by Beauty
Do you love just taking in the beauty around you?
Whether it’s gorgeous plants and flowers, architecture, the bustling streets or the charm of old buildings, I love just observing and taking in the beauty of everyday life that I don’t take as much time for in my normal daily life.
Wandering around the gorgeous gardens behind the Bristol Cathedral.
I find being in this energy of beauty and appreciation really increases your frequency and vibration. It makes you feel really good.
And when you feel good, you naturally attract better ideas, opportunities and abundance in your business as per the Law of Attraction.
Better things just happen to you when you’re feeling wonderful because of your higher-frequency energy.
Beautiful British roses in the springtime in Inigo Jones Garden in Covent Garden. They smelled so divine!
Treating Yourself to Special Meals and Experiences
Traveling gives you the opportunity to gift yourself special meals, experiences and things your heart desires.
It gives you the chance to give yourself extra love and attention. You work hard; you deserve to spoil yourself and receive all the wonderful thing life has to offer you!
My last supper! Of course I had to get fish and chips from a local pub. YOLO
By treating yourself, you boost your self-esteem and worthiness. Other people can feel this off of you, too! You’re more likely to attract the level of abundance, success and joy that you envision for yourself when you feel worthy of it.
Reconnecting With Your Soul Mission
It’s so important to stay connected to the big “why” of why you do the work you do. You have to stay connected to the energy of your soul mission and purpose.
If you started your business out of passion for what you do, the biggest motivator that keeps you going through the ups and downs is this soul purpose.
Southwark Cathedral in London. I do feel my spiritual connection increase when I go into places of worship (no matter what religion).
Have you ever felt a reconnection to your big “why” while on a trip?
By stepping out of the daily monotonous routine, I always find a moment of reconnection to my soul mission and purpose. I find myself remembering why I want to serve through my business.
This soul connection helps me get through the obstacles that entrepreneurship challenges all of us with.
Seeing Different Ways to Live — and Reevaluating Your Own Life.
One thing I love about traveling to a place with a different culture or subculture is seeing how other people live.
It reminds us that there are an infinite number of ways to live our lives. The beauty of life is you get to decide exactly how you want to live in a way that honors you!
Clapton, London. Fancy living in a houseboat with a garden on the roof and a fireplace?
Especially as a business owner, you have more freedom than most to design a life you love. If you want to switch things up, then make a plan and make it happen! Life is too short to be miserable.
Rediscovering your Passion for Adventure and Life Again
Sometimes we just lose our passion for life. Between the stresses of daily life, the grind, responsibilities and the monotonous routines we create for ourselves, the zest for life can be lost.
I find the fastest way to get it back is to go on a trip or an adventure! By breaking out of your routine and gifting yourself with a new adventure, it’s easy to reconnect with the joy of life and increase your life force energy.
It’s easy to get excited about the amazing life we’ve been gifted again.
Loving the edgy and artsy energy along Brick Lane in London.
And this joy and love of life infuses your business! It gets the creative juices and the love flowing again.
Not only do you get great ideas in this frequency, but you attract aligned clientele that wants to give you money for what you offer the world.
You Don’t Need a Lot of Money. You Don’t Need to Hop on a Plane.
Sometimes finances can be tight while you’re building your dream business and dream life. I get it and I’ve been there.
You don’t need to get on a plane and spend a lot money. Even taking a day trip to somewhere inspiring nearby you can break you out of a rut and give you a fresh perspective and energy shift.
Where do you want to go next? Comment below!
Start planning and schedule it in. See it as an investment in you, your energy and your business.
I promise you, it will come back to you and your business somehow or another. Either through an amazing idea, or a new perspective or a level-up in your frequency and energy that will attract in more success and abundance in your business.
Wishing you much love and safe travels! ✈️
