198. Turning Wanderlust into a Travel Blog Business with Isabel Leong

Kym Tolson Episode 198

If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s actually possible to make money doing something you love, this conversation will really open your eyes. In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I sit down with Isabel Leong to talk about how a deep love for travel slowly turned into a full-time career.

Isabel shares the real behind-the-scenes of building her blog over more than a decade, what it took to turn it into a sustainable travel blog business, and why SEO has been the long-game strategy that allowed her to travel full-time for years. We also dive into slow travel, digital nomad life, and the personal growth that comes from exploring the world solo.

In This Episode, We Explore…

  • How Isabel turned a passion for travel into a long-term travel blog business.
  • What it actually takes to grow and monetize a travel blog over time.
  • Why SEO has been the most effective and sustainable strategy for her business.
  • The difference between fast travel and slow travel, and why she prefers slowing down.
  • How solo travel and digital nomad life shaped her confidence and worldview.
