This week, we’re joined by Mirka Kristiina Rahman, Transformative Travel Coach and founder of The Journey Studio. Mirka shares how a 180-day sabbatical led her from Finland to Peru, South America, and ultimately to Spain—where she’s now guiding others to reconnect with themselves through presence, nature, and intentional travel.
✨ Special Invitation:
