On She Built It®, Amanda Black, founder of The Solo Female Traveler Network, TEDx speaker, and leader of women-only group trips around the world, shares how a one-way ticket to Honduras, became the beginning of a global community of more than 600,000 women.

Amanda talks about building her first trip to Bali with a negative bank balance, firing a guide a week before her travelers arrived, and watching 9 out of 17 women tattoo the trip logo on their hands by the end of it. She shares what real female connection looks like when you give women the time and space to simply be themselves, and why, for women who want to see the world, the only thing standing in the way is usually themselves. This conversation is part travel story, part founder origin story, and entirely about what becomes possible when you decide to just go.
