Having social anxiety doesn't mean you can't solo travel, it just means you need a few workarounds... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/solo-travel-with-social-anxiety/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm talking about solo travel with social anxiety, and what actually helps when ordering food out loud, checking in to accommodation, or making small talk with a stranger feels like the hardest part of the whole trip. We cover why solo travel can make social anxiety feel louder than it does at home, my own honest experience of walking twenty minutes out of my way to find a supermarket with self-checkout (and skipping restaurants entirely on some days), the small workarounds that actually helped me, from food ordering apps to prepared check-in scripts to offline translation apps, whether you need to socialise on a solo trip at all, and how to tell if now isn't the right time to go yet. If you've ever wondered whether you can solo travel with social anxiety, googled how to cope with social anxiety while travelling alone, or wondered if solo travel is even possible if you're introverted or anxious, this episode is for you! --- Other Resources Mentioned 💛 Join my free Facebook community to connect with other anxious solo female travellers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/travelanywaysolofemaletravelwithanxiety 🧳 Ready to actually plan your first trip?

Feeling wide awake at 2am, questioning a trip you're actually excited for, doesn't mean you shouldn't go... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/pre-trip-anxiety/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm talking about why pre-trip anxiety hits so hard, even when it's a trip you actually want to take. We cover why your brain treats an unfamiliar solo trip as a threat by default, my own experience lying awake spiralling before flying out to Iceland (years and countries into solo travel, not my first trip!), the one simple reframe that's helped me more than anything else with pre-trip nerves, and the practical, doable things I actually do in the days before I go to keep the overwhelm from building up. If you've ever lain awake at 2am the week before a solo trip wondering if you should just cancel, typed "is it normal to be anxious before travelling alone" into Google, or wondered whether this feeling ever actually goes away the more you travel, this episode is for you! --- Other Resources Mentioned 💛 Join my free Facebook community to connect with other anxious solo female travellers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/travelanywaysolofemaletravelwithanxiety 🧳 Ready to actually plan your first trip?

You don't have to feel 100% ready to book your first solo trip, most of us book while we're still anxious, not after the fear disappears... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/5-signs-youre-ready-to-solo-travel/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm talking about how to actually know you're ready for your first solo trip, even when you don't feel it. We cover the biggest myth about solo travel readiness (that you need to feel fearless before you book), the five signs I look for with my Confidence Coaching clients, including the shift from "if" to "when," picturing a real destination, working through your what ifs, the fear of regret versus the fear of going, and knowing you don't need every answer figured out first. If you've ever wondered whether you're ready to solo travel, found yourself Googling "signs I'm ready for a solo trip," or you're not sure whether solo travel anxiety ever goes away, this episode is for you! --- Other Resources Mentioned 💛 Join my free Facebook community to connect with other anxious solo female travellers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/travelanywaysolofemaletravelwithanxiety 🧳 Ready to actually plan your first trip?

Feeling flat, teary or homesick on a trip you've wanted for years doesn't mean you've made a mistake, it just means you're human... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/solo-travel-homesickness/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm talking about solo travel homesickness, why it shows up even on trips you've dreamed about for years, and why it doesn't mean anything's gone wrong. We cover why your brain reacts to the sudden loss of routine rather than the trip itself, my own (genuinely unglamorous) homesick spiral after landing in Pula, Croatia, the difference between a passing wave of homesickness and actually wanting to go home, and the small anchors that make the wave easier to sit with. If you've ever wondered whether it's normal to feel homesick abroad, googled why you feel so flat after finally landing somewhere you wanted to go, or worried that missing home means solo travel isn't for you, this episode is for you! --- Other Resources Mentioned 💛 Join my free Facebook community to connect with other anxious solo female travellers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/travelanywaysolofemaletravelwithanxiety 🧳 Ready to actually plan your first trip?

Feeling terrified at the thought of travelling alone doesn't mean solo travel isn't for you; it just means you're human... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/can-you-solo-travel-with-anxiety/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm answering the question I get asked more than almost any other: can you actually solo travel if you have anxiety? We cover why feeling scared doesn't rule you out of solo travel, my own (very unglamorous!) story of nearly turning around at the airport gate before my first solo trip to Switzerland, what solo travel anxiety actually still looks like for me now, 24 countries in, and why the thing that changed wasn't my anxiety disappearing, but building systems that let me travel with it instead. If you've ever wondered whether solo female travel anxiety is normal, googled "can you travel with anxiety," or felt like you're waiting to become a braver person before you book anything, this episode is for you! --- Other Resources Mentioned 💛 Join my free Facebook community to connect with other anxious solo female travellers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/travelanywaysolofemaletravelwithanxiety 🧳 Ready to actually plan your first trip?

Choosing an "easy" destination for your first solo trip doesn't have to mean boring... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/easy-solo-travel-destinations-for-anxious-beginners/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm talking through some of my favourite destinations for a first solo trip, and why "easy" is a far more useful filter than "exciting" when anxiety is part of the picture. We cover why the best first solo trip isn't the boldest one, the four things I actually look for when choosing anywhere solo (pace, transport, language barrier, safety reputation), and a proper mix of destinations for every comfort level — from English-speaking cities like Edinburgh and Gibraltar, to low-key towns like Montreux and Heidelberg, calm scenery in Stockholm and Bergen, and quieter coastal spots like Kotor and Korcula. If you've ever typed "best destinations for solo female travel beginners" into Google, wondered where's actually manageable for a first trip rather than just Instagrammable, or found yourself overwhelmed trying to choose somewhere, this episode is for you! --- Other Resources Mentioned 💛 Join my free Facebook community to connect with other anxious solo female travellers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/travelanywaysolofemaletravelwithanxiety 🧳 Ready to actually plan your first trip?

Being scared of something happening on a solo trip doesn't mean it's not safe for you... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/is-it-dangerous-to-travel-alone-as-a-woman/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm talking honestly about solo female travel safety, based entirely on my own experience of 24 countries with anxiety and social anxiety along for the ride. We cover the difference between fear and actual risk, my own experiences of things going wrong on the road, including a scary taxi scam in Zadar, Croatia, a near-miss pickpocketing in Lisbon, and an uncomfortable late-night walk in Nice, plus the specific, unglamorous habits I now rely on to feel safer, from how I choose accommodation to how I handle my belongings and plan for emergencies.

Comparing tiny hotel details for hours isn't planning, it's just anxiety in a spreadsheet... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/how-to-plan-your-first-solo-trip-with-anxiety/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm sharing the exact seven-stage system I use to plan every solo trip, even now, 24 countries in. We cover why most "how to plan a solo trip" checklists don't work if you're anxious, my Dream to Departure Roadmap (dream, decide, book, plan, prepare, go, reflect), the five-minute Street View trick I use before booking any accommodation, and the "what if" reframe that stops one anxious thought spiralling into ten.

Confidence to solo travel isn't a feeling you wait for, it's evidence you build, one small step at a time... ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ 💛 Prefer to read along or revisit anything from today's episode? https://whereskatienow.com/how-to-build-confidence-to-travel-solo/ --- What This Episode Covers In this episode, I'm talking about why confidence to solo travel doesn't show up before you book, and why it actually only ever shows up after. We cover the myth that confident people just naturally feel less afraid, my Evidence List exercise for building solo travel confidence from things that have nothing to do with travel at all, the (very overwhelming!) story of nearly abandoning my month-long Interrail trip before it even started, small practical steps you can take before your first solo trip, and why confidence dips again even once you've already started travelling.

We cover why fear thrives on the unknown and why your brain treats an unfamiliar solo trip as a threat by default, my own (very unglamorous!) story of nearly talking myself out of my first solo trip to Switzerland, whether solo travel anxiety ever actually goes away, and why feeling scared to travel alone as a woman doesn't mean you're not brave enough.

What if I panic abroad? What if I have a panic attack on a solo trip? What if my anxiety ruins everything? ✈️ FREE EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → https://whereskatienow.com/solo-female-travel-email-course/ --- What This Episode Covers If you've ever wanted to travel solo but the fear of panicking in another country has stopped you, this episode is for you. In this episode of The Anxious Solo Female Traveller, I'm sharing my exact panic plan for solo travelling with anxiety, the practical things I do before every trip, and the mindset shifts that have helped me travel to 24 countries solo - even with anxiety and social anxiety. Because the truth is, solo travel didn't cure my anxiety. I still overthink. I still get nervous. I still have moments where I wonder why I booked the trip in the first place. But I've learnt that anxiety abroad is still anxiety. The coping skills you've built at home don't suddenly disappear when you get on a plane. And honestly, I think that's something really comforting to remember. --- Other Resources Mentioned 💛 Join my free Facebook community to connect with other anxious solo female travellers: Travel Anyway: Solo Female Travel With Anxiety 🧳 Ready to actually plan your first trip?

Have you been telling yourself you'll travel solo when you're less anxious, more confident, or finally feel "ready"? ✈️ EMAIL COURSE: 7 Days To Your First Solo Trip (Even If You're Anxious) → Join here, totally free! --- What This Episode Covers In this episode of The Anxious Solo Female Traveller , we're talking about why waiting to feel "ready" is the real thing holding you back - and why you don't have to become fearless before you book that first trip! As someone who's travelled to 24 countries solo while living with anxiety and social anxiety, I know exactly what it's like when your brain is convinced that absolutely everything is going to go wrong. The overthinking. The worst-case scenarios. The urge to cancel everything and stay home with a cup of tea instead. But over the last five years, I've learnt something really important: You don't have to get rid of your anxiety to see the world. You can learn to travel WITH it instead. In this episode, we're chatting about why confidence comes after action, why anxiety is actually trying to protect you, and the question that completely changed how I approach solo travel fears. --- Other Resources Mentioned 💛 Join my free Facebook community to connect with other anxious solo female travellers: Travel Anyway: Solo Female Travel With Anxiety 🧳 Ready to actually plan your first trip?

Dreaming about travelling solo, but anxiety, overthinking, or a million what-ifs keep holding you back? Welcome to The Anxious Solo Female Traveller - the podcast for women who want to travel alone but don't feel fearless enough to actually do it! I'm Katie, a solo female traveller who has visited 24 countries over the last five years, all while living with anxiety and social anxiety. And no, solo travel didn't magically cure me.
