385 | How Getting Rid of Almost Everything Changed Her Life

Hi Friends, In this episode, I talk with former firefighter and engineer Kristy Halvorsen about the health crisis that led her to completely reimagine her life. After leaving her career, Kristy downsized into a 25-year-old Airstream named Coddi and began traveling full-time, learning firsthand how having less can create more freedom, clarity, and possibility. We discuss the emotional process of letting go, the financial simplicity of minimalism, following intuition instead of forcing answers, traveling solo, and giving yourself permission to reinvent your life at any age. Kristy also shares the idea of following the "tickles of the soul"—those quiet internal nudges that become easier to hear when we slow down and make space. Hope you enjoy this episode!
