Experience NYC, Not Just the Sights with Jennifer Wright-Tubbs

Uncategorized Jun 07, 2026

Today, I'm joined by one of my favorite people and favorite tour guide in NYC, Jennifer Wright Tubbs. And if you've ever taken a tour with her, you already know that she doesn't just show you the city, she helps you feel it.

In this conversation, Jen shares her journey from a small town in Iowa to the streets of New York City, and how a simple decision to volunteer in Central Park at 40 turned into a career she genuinely loves. It's honest, encouraging, and such a reminder that it's never too late to pivot, try something new, and build something meaningful.

We talk about:

✨ What it actually takes to move to New York City ✨ Raising kids in NYC and why it might be more life-giving than you think ✨ How Jen turned curiosity into a career through storytelling and tours ✨ Why seeing NYC isn't enough. You have to experience it ✨ Her brand new mini-bus tours

One of my favorite takeaways from this episode: You can do all the landmarks and still miss New York. But when you connect the landmark with the local, that's when it clicks.

If you're planning a trip, dreaming about moving here, or just want to fall in love with NYC in a deeper way, this episode is going to give you a fresh perspective.
