🏕️ What It Really Takes to Start a Campground (Ghosts, Giving Back, and Going Global) with Tonja Lesmeister @fireflyhills - Part 2
Listen to full episode :
We’re back with Part 2 of our conversation with Tonja Lesmeister — and you’re in for a wild ride.👻
If you thought owning a campground was adventurous enough, wait until you hear what Tonja discovered after moving into her 1920s farmhouse at Firefly Hills. (Hint: it involves ghost-hunting gear, a local Facebook group, and some uninvited houseguests.)
But the paranormal isn’t the only meaningful story she shares.
In this episode, Tonja also opens up about her nonprofit, Traveling with a Purpose — and how she organizes service-based trips to Jamaica that combine adventure with impact.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
The surprising discovery Tonja made about her farmhouse (yes, it’s haunted)
Her journey into running a nonprofit and creating service-based travel experiences
How she helps people ease into international travel — even if they’ve never left the U.S.
Why she believes women can blend business, purpose, and adventure in powerful ways
