@itravelforculture – Today, Gibbs is hitting Raleigh, NC, to uncover some real-deal stories that prove connection is the secret sauce. First stop? Meeting Michele Paul — the fierce founder of Let’s Get Social Raleigh, a badass movement that started as a tiny Facebook meet-up and exploded into a powerhouse of over 45,000 “cousins” — all about good vibes, real talk, and rebuilding community from the ground up. Michele’s story is raw, inspiring, and full of grit — a retired Marine turned community hero who’s fighting isolation with nature, play, and a whole lotta love.
But wait — it gets crazy! Gibbs crashes a house party at a local spot — think adult playground with board games, karaoke smackdowns, card battles, and laughter that echoes through the room. Then, just two days later, he’s sweating it out on a 3-mile trail hike with Michele, soaking in the healing power of nature and fresh air.
Michele’s not stopping here — she’s taking her “Let’s Get Social” magic beyond Raleigh, dreaming of a bigger, bolder movement that’s all about trust, unity, and real community vibes across the country.
