Doing hard stuff takes courage, but more importantly it takes keeping the right perspective. I am a former Playboy Playmate, a USCG Captain, a YouTuber and single mom. I have been living on a tiny sailboat for the last six years sailing all over the world. After truly falling in love with the lifestyle I bought a 51 foot Formosa that we call the Pirate Ship. Go Sea the World Podcast is a raw, intimate conversation about life lived off-script. Recorded from sailboats, anchorages, and far-flung corners of the world, host Aubrey O’Hare explores love, motherhood, relationships, healing, and what it really takes to choose freedom without losing yourself. Unfiltered, thoughtful, and deeply human—this is a podcast for people building unconventional lives on their own terms.

    Pirates, Fuel Failure & a Storm: How We Survived the Bay of Panama

    This episode is a real-time account of one of the most intense and dangerous experiences we’ve ever faced at sea. What began as a routine passage across the Bay of Panama quickly turned into a multi-layered survival situation—an unidentified vessel approaching in the dark, a suspected pirate encounter, rapidly deteriorating weather, and eventually complete fuel exhaustion in heavy seas. Onboard were three women and a baby. In this episode, we walk you through exactly what happened—from the moment we spotted the lights, to the decisions made under pressure, to coordinating with the U.S. Coast Guard and Panamanian authorities, and the reality of what it feels like to be responsible for lives when everything starts to go wrong. This is not a dramatized retelling. This is the raw sequence of events, shared so we don’t have to keep repeating the story—and so others out there can learn from it. We also break down: • What we saw and why it didn’t feel right • The tactical decisions that may have kept us safe • How quickly conditions in the Bay of Panama can change • What we would do differently next time • Critical safety considerations for offshore sailors There are moments in this story that forced a deeper question: What matters more—your vessel, or the people on board? If you’re sailing this region—or anywhere offshore—this is an episode worth sharing. Coordinates, additional details, and a written breakdown will be available on the blog: 🌐 sailingmisslonestar.com If you know someone currently traveling these waters, please pass this along. Stay alert. Have a plan. Trust your instincts. – Aubrey

    Reinventing Yourself at 40: Motherhood, Sailing, and Choosing a Life That’s Yours

    Reinventing Yourself at 40: Motherhood, Sailing, and Choosing a Life That’s Yours What does it really mean to reinvent yourself — in the middle of life, motherhood, and the public eye? In this deeply personal episode of Go See the World, Aubrey O’Hare shares what it’s been like to become a mother again at 40 while living and sailing full-time, running a long-standing YouTube channel, and navigating life’s biggest decisions in public. From the early days of sailing with doubt and imposter syndrome, to raising children at different stages of life, to stepping away from YouTube to reevaluate everything — this episode explores the cost and reward of choosing an unconventional life. Aubrey opens up about regret, growth, public judgment, and the quiet confidence that only comes with experience. She reflects on: Becoming a mother again at 40 — and why it feels profoundly different Learning to trust herself after years of self-doubt Sailing with a baby as a single mom and captain Living and creating in the public eye — and the emotional toll it takes Why reinvention isn’t failure, but a necessary part of staying alive and inspired How slowing down has made her a better mother, leader, and human At its heart, this episode is about forgiveness — forgiving yourself for past decisions, trusting that you will always find a way forward, and believing that if someone else has done it, you can too. If you’ve ever felt called to start over, change direction, or live a life that feels more aligned — this conversation is for you.

    Crew Chemistry: How We Choose People (and What Goes Wrong)| Sailing Miss Lone Star | Podcast

    In this episode of Go See the World, Aubrey O’Hare and co-host Jordan get real about the part of sailing nobody warns you about: crew dynamics. Living with people in 200 square feet means no privacy, no escape, and high consequences—so small habits (like what “clean” actually means on a boat) can turn into big tension fast. We talk about how we choose crew, the red flags and green flags we look for, why expectations matter more than vibes, and how we’re building our “Houdini Bible”—a simple onboard guide to keep the boat running smoothly and the mood intact. If you’re joining a boat, hosting crew, or living in close quarters with anyone, this one will save you a lot of resentment (and probably a few broken dishes).

    Redoing the scariest sale of my life

    Sailing down the Pacific coast of Mexico sounds romantic—until you’re in the rolliest anchorage of your life, your bilge pump won’t stop, your stuffing box is leaking, and you’re doing it all with three women and a baby onboard. In this episode, Aubrey and Jordan share a real-time update from the coast of Oaxaca as they make their way south toward Chiapas, Costa Rica, and eventually the Panama Canal. They talk about living on a 1977 Formosa ketch, the constant maintenance of an old boat, why new boats aren’t always better, and what it’s like returning to this stretch of ocean after a difficult, fear-filled passage the last time—this time with better planning, a stronger crew, and a very different mindset. They cover: Rolly anchorages and why sailors sometimes leave at 3 a.m. Stuffing boxes, engine alignment, and why some problems are above your pay grade Living with mold on boats—and the product that changed everything Sailing with a baby and the vigilance it requires Safety, intuition, and navigating Mexico as an all-female crew The emotional difference between survival sailing and confident sailing Editing burnout, storytelling, and why this podcast feels freeing again This is not a polished highlight reel—it’s the honest middle of a long journey, shared from the cockpit. Go Sea the World Podcast is a sailing, travel, and lifestyle podcast about love, motherhood, relationships, and personal growth, hosted by sailor and world traveler Aubrey O’Hare.

    Dating on the Move: Love, Co-Parenting & Life Afloat in Mexico

    We’re recording from a 51’ Formosa in Mexico with a squealing baby in the tub and a whole lot happening in a tiny space. In this episode, Aubrey and Jordan talk about what dating looks like when you live on the move—how relationships become pressure cookers at sea, why “normal” timelines don’t exist for travelers, and what it means to protect your peace while still wanting love. Then the universe drops a full telenovela plotline in our laps: Aubrey accidentally meets Violet’s paternal grandfather in the street… which turns into a sudden, emotional introduction to Violet’s extended Mexican family—tears, laughter, healing, and a whole new perspective. And just when we think the day couldn’t get wilder? A 3AM “surprise” arrival at the boat sparks a hard boundary conversation, a co-parenting reset, and a surprising moment of hope for what a healthier future could look like—maybe even tandem-sailing around the world. In this episode: Dating abroad vs dating on the move (and why it gets intense fast) Protecting your peace without closing your heart Meeting family you’ve never met—by total accident Co-parenting while traveling The dream of “together, but with separate boats/houses” If you’ve ever loved unconventionally, lived nomadically, or tried to co-parent while building an extraordinary life—this one’s for you.

    We Didn’t Plan This: Motherhood, Risk, and Choosing the Wrong Way

    We didn’t set out to do this. What started as a quiet morning at anchor in Zihuatanejo, Mexico turns into a reflection on how quickly life can change—and what happens when you say yes anyway. In this episode, Aubrey and Jordan sit down over coffee aboard a classic pirate ship to talk about the unexpected chain of events that led to three women and a baby preparing to sail the wrong way around the world. There’s no master plan here. No polished answers. Just honest conversation about motherhood, risk, trust, and the strange clarity that comes when familiar paths fall away. From failed plans and near-misses at sea to the quiet confidence of choosing a different kind of crew, this episode sets the tone for a journey shaped more by instinct than expectation. Along the way, Aubrey opens up about leadership, fear, and the weight of making decisions that affect everyone on board—while learning that there may not be a “right way” to do something as wild as circumnavigating the globe. This isn’t a how-to. It’s a beginning. And the story is just getting started.
