I had been listening to her podcasts for over a year and a half when I finally decided to take that number 1 trip on my bucket list; traveling to Ireland for a month.

  • Ireland at your own pace

    Whether you want to dream about being in Ireland or plan your first trip, Jody has a knack for helping you visualize your experiences. Using different colored markers I mapped out where all my family members had traveled in Ireland. But my husband and I took Jody’s advice by staying a couple nights at each location and soaking in the experience! Long time listener!
