Nomadic Women: 30 Stories of Trials and Triumph on the Open Road

Two years ago, shrouded in grief, heartbreak, and uncertainty, The 30 Journeys founder Trish Tassin threw caution to the wind and purchased a used conversion van she named Louise.

What began as an ending quietly unfolded into a beginning—not just of her own healing, but of a movement. Along the way, she encountered extraordinary women—fierce, kind, radiant—who had also chosen the road as their path to wholeness. Each one carried a story of grit, grief, resilience, and quiet transformation. What they shared over campfires and under canyon skies was too powerful to stay in the shadows.

The 30 Journey’s debut anthology Nomadic Women: Tales of Triumph on the Open Road brings their inspiring voices to the page—stories of hardship and heart, courage and communion. Together, these thirty essays form a tapestry of truth, revealing what it really takes to build a new life from the inside out.

Brought to life by a dedicated team of publishing and communications professionals, Nomadic Women: Tales of Triumph on the Open Road offers a legacy of insight, humor, and wild grace from the women who dared to wander and write their truths in ink and courage.

Rewriting the Narrative on Nomadic Living

Women’s stories, especially those on unconventional paths, are rarely given the airspace they deserve.

For too long, women who stepped outside the lines—who dared to leave, wander, rest, or rebuild—have done so without a place to speak their truths. The 30 Journeys opens that space wide, offering a place where each woman can tell her story without apology or distortion.
