Does any of this sound familiar?
💭 What if I panic when I get there?
💭 What if I look awkward eating alone?
💭 What if everyone else is naturally confident except me?
💭 Maybe I’ll travel next year… when I feel more ready.
💭 I want to solo travel so badly, but I just can’t seem to press the book button.
If so, I know exactly how you feel.
I have social anxiety and PTSD. So before my first solo trip, I spent MONTHS overthinking every possible scenario. I convinced myself I needed to feel completely confident before I could travel alone.
But now, after solo travelling to more than 24 countries, I’ve discovered:
Confidence doesn’t usually come first. Action does.
Confidence grows every time you prove to yourself that you can handle something you once thought was impossible.
And that’s exactly what this workbook is designed to help you do!
Instead of getting stuck in endless overthinking, you’ll work through practical exercises that help you understand your fears, challenge unhelpful thought patterns and take small, practical steps towards your dream trip.
Because you don’t have to wait until your anxiety disappears to start living the life you want.
What’s inside the Solo Travel Anxiety & Confidence Workbook?
💭 Fear Inventory Exercises
Get your worries out of your head and onto paper so you can identify exactly what’s holding you back instead of feeling overwhelmed by vague anxiety.
🔄 “What If?” Reframing Prompts
Challenge catastrophic thinking by exploring more balanced, realistic possibilities and creating practical responses to your biggest fears.
💪 Confidence Evidence Builder
Collect reminders of past difficult situations you’ve already handled successfully, building real evidence that you’re more capable than your anxiety wants you to believe.
🌱 Tiny Courage Challenges
Build momentum through manageable actions that stretch your comfort zone without feeling impossible.
✈️ Booking Barrier Worksheets
Work through the mental roadblocks stopping you from booking so you can stop putting your dream trip off until “someday.”
🧠 Self-Consciousness Exercises
Explore common fears around eating alone, being judged or standing out, and develop healthier ways to think about these situations.
📝 Your Personal Confidence Plan
Create your own toolkit of reminders, coping strategies and practical action steps to support yourself before and during your trip.
💌 A Letter to Your Future Self
Finish by writing words of encouragement to the version of you who is about to board the plane, celebrating just how far you’ve already come!
Everything inside the workbook is designed to help you replace overthinking with action, so you can stop asking, “What if I can’t do this?” and start thinking, “Maybe I’m more capable than I realise.”
Here’s what other solo female travellers are saying…
Hi, I’m Katie 👋
Experienced solo female traveller of 5+ years. 24 countries (and counting!)
Why I created this workbook:
When I first considered solo travel, I told myself it would be impossible with my anxiety, because I genuinely believed everyone else who travelled alone must be naturally brave.
Meanwhile, I was lying awake imagining every worst-case scenario, questioning whether I should cancel before I’d even left.
I live with social anxiety and PTSD, and I know how exhausting it is when your own mind keeps trying to convince you not to do the thing you desperately want.
But after travelling solo through 24+ countries, I’ve realised something that changed everything for me:
Confidence isn’t a personality trait.
It’s something we build through preparation and action.
This workbook contains the kinds of exercises, reflections and mindset shifts I wish I’d had back then, and the ones I still come back to whenever anxiety starts getting loud.
This workbook is perfect for you if…
✔️ You’ve been putting off solo travel because you don’t feel “ready.”
✔️ You constantly overthink or catastrophise before making decisions.
✔️ You want practical exercises rather than empty motivational quotes.
✔️ You’re tired of waiting for fear to disappear before taking action.
✔️ You want to build genuine confidence one small step at a time.
