262 Judy Reeves: Traveling Solo to Find My Way

When nearing 50 years of age and recently widowed, Judy sold everything,

bought an around-the-world airline ticket, and set off alone on a year-long

journey without a planned itinerary. “The outer journey serves as a

container” for Judy’s inner “struggle to find her way as a sober, single,

independent woman.” A master teacher and published author of fiction,

poetry, and nonfiction, Judy’s journey led to her first published memoir,

When Your Heart Says Go: My Year of Traveling Beyond Loss and Loneliness

(October 2023).

"My year-long around-the-world travel adventure became an inner

journey to knowing myself."
