In today’s episode I talk to Siobhan Daniels who is a Journalist, Broadcaster & Pro-Age Campaigner. After suffering huge losses and living through a challenging dark chapter whilst in her 50’s, Siobhan decided to follow her dreams and made the decision to swap her every day existence for an adventurous nomadic life on the road.
Siobhan retired from the BBC two years ago, after a 30 year career working as a Reporter, Presenter and Producer.
During that time she overcame many challenges including working full time as a single mother.
At nearly fifty, when her daughter went to university, Siobhan took a gap year from work and backpacked solo around the world.
This trip changed her forever, and she began to develop her plan to one day travel the UK in a motorhome.
By her mid-fifties she felt burnt out, whilst battling with menopause symptoms, she was also facing ageism and bullying at work, Siobhan knew she needed to find her escape plan.
In 2019, aged sixty, she took early retirement, sold her belongings, bought a motorhome and embarked on her solo trip around Great Britain.
