“Learning to be okay in your own company is one really big factor of solo traveling, because once you feel confident with your own company, then you can take on anything else.” - Nabila Ismail

In this episode, Christine hosts a soulful conversation with Nabila Ismail, founder of the Dose of Travel Club and solo female traveler, entrepreneur, and pharmacist. Nabila is a Pakistani-American who is originally from New York and calls the world her home. She’s been solo traveling for the past ten years with the mission to educate herself about the world and inspire other women of color to follow their dreams. Her personal travel brand is Dose of Travel, which combines all of her interests from healthcare, pharmacy, entrepreneurship, and travel into content and idea sharing online. 

Nabila founded the Dose of Travel Club to create a safe, accessible, and inclusive place for travelers on a mission to see more diversity and representation in the travel space. 

Christine and Nabila discuss:

• The drive to create a welcoming space for other South Asian women travelers and entrepreneurs
• How our passions can intertwine
• The role of a different background (like pharmacy!) in giving us unique connections to destinations
• How journaling while you travel can help you track your shifts in perspective
• Sharing travel experiences as a content creator
• Making travel meaningful and impactful
