Listen "Breakfast or Boundaries? Expectations During Business Travel"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Talk’n TRM: The Traveller Files, Bex is joined by Jessica Inglis to unpack a surprisingly common business travel dilemma: the expectation to eat breakfast with colleagues. For some, it’s a chance to connect and strategize before the workday begins. For others, mornings are sacred—quiet time for coffee, reflection, and personal space before a day full of client interactions.
Together, Bex and Jessica explore how this small ritual highlights a bigger issue: the blurred boundaries of business travel. When you’re away from home, are you expected to always be “on”? Where does personal time end and work time begin?
Tune in as they discuss the unspoken rules of travel mornings, the pressure to conform to group expectations, and why protecting personal boundaries might be just as important as professional performance.
