JUMP 181: Milestone - Celebrating 11 Years of Podcasting with Jackie
This episode is one for the books. Eleven years ago this week, Jackie first launched this podcast. Why? Largely because of the advice of Podcast Hall of Fame inductee Lou Mongello, who is here as a guest host today. Listen in as Lou himself picks up the mic and turns it on Jackie, to reflect on and celebrate the past decade-plus of her podcasting journey.We’re taking a deep dive behind the scenes, starting with how the podcast began, overcoming fears and challenges, building community through travel, finding purpose and fulfillment, balancing passion and business, Jackie’s key to success, and looking ahead to the future.The timing for this conversation couldn’t be better, as we just won Best Travel Podcast 2025 at the iHeartRadio Podcast Awards. We wouldn’t be here without YOU, so we all have much to revel in today.
