Back to EpisodesEp. 19 Building Business on the Road Series: Networking & Community Building while traveling
Description
Let’s get honest: RV life isn’t all campfire chats and instant friendships. In this episode, Sarah Jones opens up about the surprising loneliness that comes with life on the road - even for someone who seems outgoing. She shares her journey from feeling isolated to intentionally building community, both online and in the real world. From volunteering at local organizations to joining industry rallies and making small talk in unexpected places (hello, Walmart pen aisle!), Sarah reveals how she’s learning to be “present” and create connection wherever she parks her home. This episode is packed with practical strategies, real-life stories, and encouragement for anyone craving deeper relationships while living a life of adventure.
