In this episode of While She's Away, I chat Sojourner White about her journey from career confusion to traveling the world as a remote social worker! Sojourner shares how she switched to a remote social work role during the pandemic and the importance of always learning and being willing to fail.

Sojourner White is a remote social worker, award-winning travel journalist, and train travel queen. Hailing from Milwaukee, Wisconsin she has been a digital nomad, called Spain home as a study abroad student turned English teacher with the Fulbright Program, and spent a summer in Germany as an International Social Work graduate student intern. But now, through her platform Sojournies, she helps 9-5ers fulfill their career goals and bucket list dreams to bask in freedom and flexibility outside the office. Sojourner has been featured in Buzzfeed, PopSugar, The Matador Network, HuffPost, and Thrillist and written for Travel + Leisure, USA Today, Fodor’s, Insider, Lonely Planet, Viator, and more.

We chat about juggling a 9-to-5 job with being a travel influencer, making the most of remote work, and dealing with cultural challenges abroad, especially as a black woman. Sojourner also honestly shares about her Fulbright experience in Northern Spain, the value of routines, and the peace she finds in train travel. Tune in to hear how Sojourner's curiosity has shaped her career and inspired others to go after their travel dreams!
