EP 091: Vanlife, Freedom, and Life on Her Terms with Jo Hodson
Manage episode 440718870 series 2846074
Today’s guest is Jo Hodson, who lives in a van that she designed herself, while travelling and working wherever she chooses. It was so inspiring to hear her speak about how she lives her life completely on her terms.
Before Jo embarked on full-time van life she lived in the next town to me and we have several mutual friends. When I heard she had converted a Ford Transit van and this was now her home I was intrigued and started following her journey on Instagram. I quickly became hooked and I love to check her daily stories where she shares the highs and lows of van life, as well as breathtaking photos of the gorgeous places she travels to and calls home for a while.
This conversation with Jo was raw and authentic and shows us another way to live that isn’t conventional but may well just feel ‘right’ for some. I hope you enjoy listening, and that Jo inspires you to live your life with more clarity and authenticity - whether that’s in a van or not!
Within this conversation Jo talked about her two instagram accounts and whether she would keep them both. Since recording she has now decided to have just one account, which is where you can follow both her brilliant van life stories and hear about her business and work too. The new name of her account to follow is @iamjohodson
Here’s what is included in this episode:
- Why Jo decided to convert a Ford Transit and embrace full-time van life 3 years ago, and how it transformed her dislike of driving!
- How the “dark side of freedom” and lack of community has actually been challenging, and how Jo has found ways to anchor herself.
- When Jo changed her whole life at age 30, so that making the shift to van life wasn’t such a surprise to her friends and family.
- How she has found a unique way to make a living and work while on the road, and how she sees others do this too in creative ways.
- Navigating a new relationship with another van-lifer and how this is working for them to make sure they spend time together.
