Live fully, trust the next step, and embrace your own unfolding w/ Kristy Halvorsen

Discover how travel, nature, and inner reflection can lead to a deeper understanding of life and your true self.

In this deeply reflective conversation on Phases, Anita Goa speaks with Kristy Halvorsen about the extraordinary journey behind her book, The Perfect Unfolding.

Kristy shares how she left behind a conventional life as an engineer and firefighter to live nomadically in her Airstream, “Coddi,” following inner knowing, curiosity, and the call to wander.

Together, they explore the tension between certainty and the unknown, the wisdom of listening to the body and heart, and the powerful lessons that come from solitude, nature, and life’s unexpected disruptions.

Kristy opens up about moments of profound insight, including the year that broke her open, the meaning of “remembering and forgetting,” and how her journey became less about escape and more about awakening.

The conversation also touches on yoga philosophy, spiritual guides versus teachers, aging, privilege, and the importance of honoring one’s own path without waiting for permission.

Through Kristy’s stories of travel, resilience, and self-discovery, this episode invites listeners to reconsider what it means to live fully, trust the next step, and embrace their own perfect unfolding.
