Jackie Nourse aka Traveling Jackie in Patagonia
Traveling Jackie

Podcaster. Adventure Designer. Explorer.

At age 18, Jackie Nourse chose to pursue travel as a lifestyle and never returned to “normal” as she knew it. Now, over 20 years later, she is the host of the award-winning podcast JUMP with Traveling Jackie, and creator of JUMP Adventures, where she designs experiences and invites her community to take the leap and travel the world together.

She has been an ambassador for brands such as Osprey Packs, Oboz Footwear, Atomic Skis, Four Wheel Campers, BikeTours.com, and Carve Designs, and won an award for Best Documentary Short for her collaboration with Osprey on the short film “Chiloé.” When she’s not traveling internationally, she’s either playing ice hockey in Montana or traveling in her truck camper with her mountain bike in tow. Find her at @travelingjackie and TravelingJackie.com.

Successful Collab Examples
Jackie Nourse Osprey Ambassador

Osprey Packs

BRAND AMBASSADOR PARTNERSHIP, PHOTO/VIDEO PROJECTS, PODCAST SPONSORSHIP

It started with a genuine passion for backpacks (#gearnerd) that blossomed into an official ambassadorship and even a short documentary film about me and my story against the backdrop of a place that changed my life. That documentary is called Chiloé and it won Best Documentary Short at a 2021 film festival. Osprey was my first “dream brand” collab; they’ve believed in me and what I’m doing from the start, and the feeling is mutual. Osprey is currently an annual Title Sponsor of my podcast.

Jackie Nourse Oboz Footwear Ambassador

Oboz Footwear

BRAND AMBASSADOR PARTNERSHIP, PHOTO/VIDEO PROJECTS, PODCAST SPONSORSHIP

Supporting local businesses matters to me, which is why I originally partnered with Oboz Footwear, an internationally-recognized footwear company with a home base just down the street from mine in Bozeman, Montana. Through a photo & video campaign and a podcast sponsorship that turned into an official, ongoing ambassadorship, this is a collab I’m very proud to be part of, not to mention that my feet absolutely love Oboz shoes. Oboz Footwear is also currently an annual Title Sponsor of my podcast.

Jackie and Todos Santos Eco Adventures

TODOS SANTOS ECO ADVENTURES

PODCAST SPONSORSHIP, TOUR PARTNERSHIP

Todos Santos Eco Adventures (TOSEA) is an adventure operator in Baja California Sur, Mexico. I first met TOSEA in 2015, and we later partnered for a Destination Feature full episode (150) for my podcast. Not only did that episode go on to generate business for them, but I loved the experience so much that I brought my community back with me in 2024 on a JUMP Adventures trip. Founder Bryan Jauregui says, “Working with Jackie on her podcast checks all the boxes: it is super fun, the content is fantastic, and her reach and influence are tremendous. We were incredibly impressed by the beautiful social media posts and programs she created and with what a great relationship she has with her followers. It has been a tremendous return on investment in terms of not only exposure and sales, but the sheer joy of being part of the fun and excitement that define the Traveling Jackie podcast!

Jackie Nourse and BikeTours.com

BikeTours.com

PHOTO/VIDEO PROJECT, TOUR PARTNERSHIP

From trying out a few bike tours myself and creating blog posts, videos, and podcast episodes about them, to eventually hosting four bike trips (and counting!) for my own audience via JUMP Adventures, my work with BikeTours.com was one of my most exciting collaborations to date. Founder Jim Johnson says, “Working with Jackie has been a resounding success for BikeTours.com.”

Why work with me

Let’s Hear It From My People

I have been listening to your podcasts every night. As I am falling asleep visions of adventure and new experiences fill my head and the first words I hear when I wake in the morning are ones of optimism and a zest for life. I’m grateful to you for the strength and vulnerability you show in sharing your experiences and your path in life with so many.

AMBER | PODCAST LISTENER

I would follow Jackie anywhere. I cannot recommend her enough!

VIRGINIA | PODCAST LISTENER & JUMP ADVENTURES PARTICIPANT

You are an inspiration, a true traveler and writer, one who manages to stay authentic by telling your story, not the one you think people want to hear. Amazing.

LISA | IG FOLLOWER

Your podcast today really helped remind me of how I’ve grown and what I’ve learned (and am still learning) about the fact that I always have choices, that I can choose a different path, and that that path has value – even if no one else understands it. Thank you for being brave and vulnerable! You are inspiring, and the work you do
matters.

STEPHANIE | PODCAST LISTENER

Thank you for sharing your story. It helps more than you know. I know you have a tremendous impact on women, but you’ve had a tremendous impact on me as a man, as a person.

KEVIN | PODCAST LISTENER & IG FOLLOWER

Thank you. You’ve given me courage that I’m having trouble finding in myself. I cried this morning re-listening to episode 63 because I identified so much with what you said. Thank you for your podcast and vulnerability.

DIANNI | PODCAST LISTENER & IG FOLLOWER

Your podcasts have been absolutely stellar with awesome content and great guests, beyond traveling, but deeper topics like how to live life, environmental sustainability, learning languages and how travel fits into the bigger picture. This is what has made you one of my favorite bloggers and I feel distinguishes you from many of the many other travel bloggers out there.

JUSTIN | PODCAST LISTENER

If you ever wonder if what you do makes a difference, it does. I’m sure there are a lot of people, just like me, who are exploring a whole lot more because you’ve given us the courage to do so.

NANETTE | PODCAST LISTENER, IG FOLLOWER & JUMP ADVENTURES PARTICIPANT

You’re every bit as lovely and kind as I had imagined while listening to your podcasts. Write your books and I’ll read them cover to cover.
