S3 E12: On Taking a Stance with Kate McCulley // Adventurous Kate

In this week’s episode, I chat with one of the first bloggers I ever followed, Kate McCulley aka Adventurous Kate. Kate has always been super honest and political online, so we chat about her experience being shipwrecked, being political online, and how Kate tries to be an ally as much as possible. We talked about: Kate’s experience being the first blogger to focus on solo female travel
Getting more comfortable with speaking out and being political online
The topics that have been the most controversial on Kate’s blogs
Learning to weave your personality and your political opinions into your writing
The stumbling blocks Kate ran into in her early days of solo travel and blogging
Kate’s experience being shipwrecked and the travel and blogging advice she’d offer as a result
Using your voice to lift up others and support the causes you believe in
What’s been annoying us in the blogosphere these days
My theory on why there’s a lack of original voices in the blogosphere (spoiler: I blame the patriarchy!)
