The story behind the Journeys.

Nekole is a finance executive, entrepreneur, and avid traveler who has spent years leading teams and managing multimillion-dollar budgets. Outside of work, she’s always been the go-to person among family and friends for planning trips and events. But when it came to her own travel plans, Nekole was tired of waiting on other people to go. Her husband didn’t share her love of travel, and friends and family often wanted to go—until life happened. Schedules changed, responsibilities got in the way, and another trip would get pushed off.

So Nekole decided she wasn’t waiting anymore. She planned a trip, went on social media, and asked complete strangers if they wanted to go with her. They did. And that’s how On The Go Journeys began. Around that same time, Nekole became an empty nester and found herself asking, “What now?” After years of balancing career, marriage, motherhood, and family, she was learning how to focus on herself again. Travel became part of rediscovering who she was. 

Then she began noticing something in the women traveling with her. She calls it “The Day 3 Effect.” Somewhere around the third day, Nekole starts to see a shift. It’s in their eyes—they’re brighter. They’re laughing more, relaxing, connecting, and the weight of everyday responsibilities begins to lift. For once, they get to focus on themselves. Watching that transformation is one of the most rewarding parts of every journey—and the motivation behind every experience she curates.
