PREP=PEACE. DOCUMENT AND EMERGENCY PLANNING CHECKLISTS that will simplify your on-the-go life.

In this episode, you'll meet Brooke, who helps female travelers  free themselves of excess baggage so they can have more enjoyable travel experiences. She's created the HPL Packing Method (HPM) - a course that teaches women how to pack in a personal item - or handbag! - for a one-week trip.
herpackinglist.com

She once traveled for  3 weeks in a 12L messenger bag.

 And also for  2.5 weeks in an 8L handbag.

Brooke has mastered the art of minimalist packing - it's something she teaches others how to do inside her HPL Packing Method course.

“And it's part of the method that has changed everything for many of my HPM students as well. To understand how much happier, lighter, and more PREPARED we can be without all the extras is  priceless. Oh, and how much more time, energy, and MONEY we can have for the actual travel experience is just the icing on the cake!”

Let Brooke help you, too, to become a more confident and less weighed down traveler.

|  WORK WITH BROOK:  The main way to work with Brooke is through the HPL Packing Method course. This course is self-guided,
