Transformative travel isn’t about doing more. For midlife women seeking personal growth, the real magic happens when you slow down and create space to reflect.
This week is a special one for food lovers, because on Friday 16th, the world comes together to mark World Food Day. The United Nations’ theme this year is “Hand in Hand for Better Foods and a Better Future”, a reminder that food connects us: our health, our planet, our sense of culture and belonging.
When we think of adventure, it’s easy to picture daredevils jumping out of planes or scaling mountains. But adventure doesn’t have to be extreme to be transformative. For women in midlife, adventure can be the ultimate self-confidence training ground — one step, one experience, one bold choice at a time.

For women in midlife, especially those navigating change, a long-distance trek can be so much more than just a holiday. It can be a chance to reconnect with yourself, embrace new challenges, and uncover strength you didn’t know you had.
I feel a little discombobulated this week. I “surrendered” my passport to get my name changed, and it is always a little unnerving when your main source of documentation is MIA. That tiny little book holds not just permission to cross borders, but a record of who we are at a given time in life.
Travel can be one of the most empowering gifts we give ourselves in midlife. It’s not just about the destination – it’s about rediscovering who we are, reigniting our confidence, and proving (mostly to ourselves!) that joy and freedom don’t have an age limit.
Yet, as women in midlife, safety often tops the list of concerns when planning transformative travel. We want adventure, but we also want to feel secure enough to enjoy every step.
I have just had to reschedule my planned overland trip from London to Singapore.
The idea was sparked by the TV show Race Across the World.
My husband and I had mapped out three whole months to make our way from London to Singapore, traveling only by public transport. No flights. No rushing. Just the joy (and chaos!) of moving across continents step by step.
