What business you start will many times come from what you are most passionate about. Doni Belau, founder and CEO of Girls' Guide to Paris, started exactly that with her fabulous women's travel company that goes far beyond Paris. In our conversation, Doni details her story and drive in building a company around what she loves, safe travel with and for women, and encourages all women to consider taking an entrepreneurial road like she did. Doni also shares about an upcoming program that she's offering called Women's Travel Wisdom, with a retreat to a beautiful part of California for four days. This wellness retreat, however, is also a journey into learning more about ourselves as individuals, something that is so important to creating a joy-filled life. Yes, eating right and exercising are important aspects of wellness, but self-discovery, mindfulness and empowerment are all key factors in the success of your business, too. Listen as Doni Belau gives us insight into this different but necessary type of exploration.Resources and links in this episode:Girls’ Guide to Paris, https://girlsguidetoparis.com/Doni’s upcoming excursions, https://girlsguidetoparis.com/trips-for-women/Doni Belau on Instagram, @girlsguidetoparisDoni Belau on Facebook, @GirlsGuideToParisWomen’s Travel Wisdom, https://womenstravelwisdom.com/start-here/Carolyn Ray at Journeywoman, https://journeywoman.com/Lola Akinmade & Loung Ung (speakers at Women’s Travel Wisdom) Conscious Connection: Reframing Mental Health to Create a Thriving Life by Sarah Wayt (book) Red Tent by Anita Diamant (book) Eve Ensler, author of “Vagina Monologues” writes on women and power Tara Brach, meditation teacher, psychologist and author of several books including international bestselling Radical Acceptance, Radical Compassion and Trusting the Gold.
