I'm super excited to have Tamara Jacobi on the podcast today to talk about her new book, life, and business - running an eco lodge in the Mexican Jungle

Tamara and I met more than a decade ago in Colorado, and we have been following each other's life and business progress from afar (thanks social media).

Tarmara is the founder and CEO of the Tailwind Jungle Lodge and author of Wildpreneurs: A Practical Guide to Pursuing Your Passion as a Business (due out Fed 11, 2020).

In the book, she tells the story of how she conceived of the idea of an eco lodge in the jungle during a college course and how she enrolled her whole family into joining her and making it a family business

There are also a ton of great other Wildpreneurs she has interviewed for the book, (Including your truly) and lots of great self reflection questions.

In the interview, Tamara also shares that she is pregnant, and will be delivering her first child down in the jungle!

In this episode you will:

* Learn how Tamara manages to run the jungle lodge - with her entire family as employees!* What it takes to run an eco lodge in the Mexican Jungle* The mindset of a Wildpreneur* How Tamra evolved as a hospitality entrepreneur* Where the idea for the Tailwind Lodge came from* How her dad got the nickname "El Tigre"* Growing up in the wilderness, with an endurance mindset* How she plans to give birth and raise her kid in the jungle
