About this episode
This episode explores the transformative power of travel through a conversation with Douglas Brouwer, focusing on how travel can lead to personal growth and deeper connections.
What is it about travel that truly transforms us? Does stepping into a new place make us wiser and more connected, or is travel sometimes just an escape from the everyday? In this powerful encore conversation, I sit down with Douglas Brouwer , seasoned traveler and author of The Traveler’s Path: Finding Spiritual Growth and Inspiration Through Travel . Douglas has spent a lifetime exploring the world — not just for the sights, but for the deeper lessons found along the way. From childhood road trips across North America to living abroad, leading pilgrimages, study tours, mission trips, and even visiting prisons around the world, Douglas has experienced travel in all its forms. His work invites us to rethink not where we go, but how we go — and how to turn every journey into a “worthy adventure.” We explore spiritual restlessness, the myths of bucket lists, and the ways travel shapes who we become.
