In this episode of Vibe Your Vibe, Kirk Francis sits down with Konrad Majchrzak, a Polish-born cyclist, adventurer, and photographer who left his job, took his bike, and set out across Europe with almost no money—trusting only the process and the path ahead.

Konrad shares the real lessons from the Camino:
• why presence and perspective matter more than the destination• how setbacks like broken chains, empty wallets, and steep climbs shape your mindset• the tiny “miracles” that show up when you stay open• how changing your inner story changes your entire life• what long-distance travel reveals about who you really are

This is a raw and honest conversation about choosing growth over comfort, trusting the unknown, and becoming someone new through every challenge on the road.
