This is our WWOOF Part 2 podcast with Pattie Baker. Pattie is the author of "Round America with a Duck" where she traveled across America right before her 60th birthday via bike, buses, trains and WWOOFing! If you want to learn more about WWOOFING catch Episode 19 from last week.

Pattie’s Book moved me. Her adventure was full of lots of learning, inspiring moments, such interesting people and places, and a few exciting and very SCARY experiences.  But, most of all, Pattie’s journey was full of powerful life lessons. Pattie is about to embark on a new WWOOFing journey Round Ireland.  Can't wait to hear about this new exciting journey.

Before we launch into my meaningful conversation with Pattie, I will start with an important quote from her book: “My journey Round America with a Duck was hard.  It took a certain kind of person and a certain kind of attitude, plus a willingness to change.  To pivot. To trust the journey. Believing I can do this was the bare minimum for achieving it, and anyone who says they can’t, really truly can’t. If you’re thinking well maybe I can then it's for you. It’s that maybe where the magic lives.”

Enjoy my conversation with Pattie Baker...
