There's Wonder Around the Bend: An Inspiring Guide to Solo Road Tripping

Are you standing confused at the crossroads of midlife, your once clear path now obscured by uncertainty?

You are uniquely designed to step into a life filled with joy and freedom. You were not created to watch the world from the confines of your couch! Yet navigating the changes of midlife is hard.

But how do you successfully navigate the unchartered territory of being alone for the first time? How do you face the uncertainties that come with empty nesting, retirement and other midlife loss?

Beth Binger has walked this exact trail of indecision and doubt. After 26 years of a comfortable life revolving around home, husband and children, her world capsized. The kids grown, husband gone, she felt dumped in a new and unrecognizable place - alone. Finding a way forward through midlife meant creating a new life that would bear little resemblance to the one she had known for almost 3 decades.

Her solution? The unlikely but life-changing decision to embark on a solo road trip. With each tentative and then confident mile, she left fear and anxiety in the rear view. Instead, she chose to reclaim wonder in her life, renew her mind, and begin again.

There's Wonder Around the Bend is the practical, emotional, and spiritual outpouring of how she turned a crisis into a story of renewal and hope. And now, she guides you to write that same story for yourself.

Beth invites you to journey with her as she shares relatable and captivating stories from the road. You'll eagerly embrace her encouragement to purposefully reclaim wonder for yourself. In a brilliant blend of road trip inspiration and Christian self-help for women, There's Wonder Around the Bend takes you from your first timid travel dream to confidently packing your car for the open road (including the best snacks!).

With charming prose that feels like an afternoon shared with a trusted friend, Beth reveals this beautiful truth: Seeking freedom and wonder in the glory of the God's creation opens your eyes, heart and mind, creating space to move forward in hope.

Encounter joy and practical help as Beth equips and inspires you to:

1. Navigate your first solo trip with confidence, even if you've never gone anywhere on your own.
2. Create a just-for-you adventure guided by your personal passions and bucket list destinations using Beth's proprietary "Treasure Map" system.
3. Determine which one of her three distinctive planning styles will ensure peace of mind for your travels. (You may not want to admit to 1 or 2!)
4. Plan with purpose by employing her exclusive "Pillars of Planning" Budget, Time, Distance, Navigation, Lodging and Food.

Journal prompts and resources guide you from the initial why road trip? to confident preparation for your solo adventure, including camping tips and traveling with your dog.

Beth never lets you lose sight of the ultimate purposes for solo travel: peace, joy, freedom, and wonder. This is the guide you didn't know you needed. There's Wonder Around the Bend powerfully weaves our need to navigate new spaces with grace and confidence together with practical preparations for a transformative journey, leading you in a hopeful direction for the next chapter of your life.
