What happens when you walk away from a 14-year career, board a plane, and decide to write the book you can’t find on the shelves?
In this episode of Plot Twist Radio, Erin sits down with travel blogger and aspiring novelist Michelle Jensen to talk about reinvention, resilience, and chasing adventure; both on the page and in real life.
Michelle shares:
Her leap from television post-production to full-time travel blogging
Spending four and a half months traveling solo through Europe
Swimming with sharks in Belize (and climbing Maya ruins)
Writing an Indiana Jones inspired adventure novel during lockdown
Surviving over two years in the querying trenches
And the emotional shift that came after leaving the career she’d built since she was 18
This conversation is honest, funny, and refreshingly real about what it takes to pivot your life and keep going when the “yes” hasn’t come yet.
If you’ve ever dreamed of reinventing yourself, traveling solo, or writing the story you wish existed… this one’s for you.
