Episode 8: Vanlife and Mental Health: The Truth About Solo Travel, Stationary Living, and Coping Strategies on the Road

In this honest and vulnerable vanlife podcast episode, we explore the real mental health challenges that come with living in a van—whether you’re constantly traveling or parked in one place. Bunny is a full-time solo female nomad, while Kyla lives in a stationary van with her husband and dog. Together, they dive into vanlife burnout, emotional fatigue, the benefits (and struggles) of companionship on the road, and the pressure to always be on the move.

We also talk about how our dogs help stabilize our routines and sanity, what mental health maintenance looks like in small spaces, and the routines we’re trying to stick to in order to stay grounded.

Whether you're a solo traveler, a couple living tiny, or just curious about the truth behind #vanlife, this episode offers relatable insight, real stories, and practical mental health strategies.
