Happy #MilwaukeeMonday! My favorite summer event begins on Thursday: the Wisconsin State Fair!! @wistatefair will be open August 1-11, and it’s truly a foodie’s playground. I love trying new foods, sticking to the classics, and stepping out of my comfort zone. Last year I tried Bull Testicles, and I actually enjoyed them! Don’t knock it til you try it.

Are you planning to attend the State Fair? If so, check out some of the food I ate last year. I guarantee you’ll leave at least one pants size bigger than you came. 😂 #visitmilwaukee #visitmke #milwaukeeevents #wisconsinstatefair #statefair #afoodiesdiary #foodieadventure #milwaukeeblogger
On this week’s episode of #CCsTravelTipTuesday, I recap my trip to Los Cabos last month. It’s truly one of my favorite cities in the world, and I’d love to move there one day.

What do you want to know about Los Cabos? #visitloscabos #loscabosmexico #cabosanlucasmexico #loscabosvacation #loscabotravel #mexicoadventures #mexicotraveltips #mexicotraveler #traveltipsandtricks #traveltiptuesday #traveltips101 #traveltipster
Whenever I talk to clients that want to travel to Los Cabos, the first thing I let them know is that the vast majority of Resorts and Hotels don’t have swimmable beaches. This is because the waters can get rocky and very dangerous. There are swimmable beaches though. You just may need to walk a little bit to get to it. I recently returned from a travel agent FAM trip where we toured sooooo many different resorts. If you’re ready to plan your Los Cabos vacation, I can assist! I can even help you find a place with a swimmable beach on site. 😎📧 Email me at [email protected] OR📱 Call/Text me at 414-885-5580 #traveltiptuesday #traveltipsandtricks #traveltips101 #traveltipster #travelagentsrock #travelagentlife #travelagencyowner #vacationplanner #milwaukeetravelagent #travelplanners #traveladvisors
Over the weekend, I celebrated another year of full time entrepreneurship. I stopped practicing law three years ago to chase my dream of traveling the world. It has truly been the best decision I’ve ever made. All glory goes to God because I wouldn’t be here without Him. People frequently ask me how I did it. I don’t know if it’s the most helpful answer, but I listened to God and followed my heart. When you’re walking in your purpose, things just fall together. That’s been my experience so I’m going to keep going until it stops. Cheers to me! 🥂 #careerchanges #chasingmydream #followingmyheart #blacklawyersmatter #travelagentsareawesome #walkinginmypurpose #fulltimeentrepreneur #ichosehappiness #livingoutmydreams #entrepeneurmotivation
I was invited to check out Backstreet BBQ & Hotpot, and it was such an unique experience! It’s all-you-can-eat BBQ & Hotpot. I’ll be honest: we had NO idea what we were getting ourselves into. We didn’t realize that we’re basically cooking our own food. The staff was amazing and helped us out until we found our groove because we definitely looked lost lol. There’s a large variety of meat, seafood, and vegetarian options to choose from. The menu was lowkey overwhelming. We enjoyed everything we ate though. I HIGHLY recommend the Honey BBQ Beef. I’d definitely go back now that I know what to expect. If you haven’t been, add this to your Milwaukee restaurant list! #visitmke #visitmilwaukee #mkefoodies #besteats #goodfoodguide #milwaukeefoodies #milwaukeefoodscene #hotpotrestaurant #barbecuerestaurant #supportlocalrestaurants #mkerestaurants #milwaukeerestaurants #mkeeats
On this week’s episode of #CCsTravelTipTuesday, I give some advice on how to protect your business. I recently had a situation where I almost had to sue a former client. Had I not taken the proper precautions to protect my business, I would’ve taken that route or been out of a significant amount of money.
.
.
**This is not legal advice. Please consult with legal counsel for your particular situation. This is based off my personal experience.** #traveltipster #traveltiptuesday #smallbusinessadvice #protectyourbusiness #protectyourbrand #smallbusinessowners
Story Timeeee!! Before I get into it, if you own a small business, PLEASE MAKE SURE IT’S PROTECTED!! It’s absolutely necessary to consult with legal counsel because one mistake can put your entire operation into jeopardy. This should be one of your most important business expenses.
.
.
Now, to the story. I planned a group trip for a birthday that ended up getting canceled. As a travel agent, cancellations happen. It’s a part of the job. One of the travelers decided not to purchase travel insurance. (After seeing what happened during the panorama, I really don’t understand why people do this.) When my clients choose not to purchase travel insurance, I make them fill out a waiver saying they understand the risks and won’t hold me liable if something happens. This client filled out the waiver.
.
.
When the trip was canceled, everyone who purchased insurance was able to get their money back or receive a future travel credit. The one person who didn’t decided to file a credit card chargeback saying they didn’t receive the services!!!! I was absolutely appalled. It was a shady move if you ask me.
.
.
Luckily, I’m a lawyer and keep documentation of EVERY email and had a copy of the waiver they signed. I ended up winning the dispute. If I hadn’t, I was going to be held personally liable for almost $2,000! Smh. In order to recoup that money, I would’ve had to go to their home state and sue them. I was fully prepared to do so because it was entirely their fault for not purchasing travel insurance. I obviously will never work with this person again.
.
.
People be out here trying to scam, and this situation could’ve turned out much worse had I not taken the proper precautions to protect my business. Please don’t learn this lesson the hard way. #smallbusinessownersunite #travelplanners #vacationplanners #protectyourbusiness #protectyourbrand #entreprenuersofinstagram #storytime #blackownedbusinessowner

I’m gonna be honest with y’all: I owe the IRS some coins. 😂😂 Ever since I became a full time entrepreneur, I’ve owed on my taxes. Before this, I always received a refund so this is different and frustrating for me. I am paying it off though because I definitely don’t want those problems. I don’t need my mugshot floating around on the internet. If you’re thinking about starting a small business or becoming a full time entrepreneur, this is something you’ll need to take into consideration. An accountant or an experienced tax professional will help you make the best decision for your situation. Have you ever owed the IRS money? #smallbusinessownerlife #fulltimeentrepreneur #smallbiztips #taxessuck #entrepeneursofinstagram
