If you haven’t noticed from my other social media posts, I just spent three days in New York for my Fora Live Forum - our travel agency conference!

I’m not going to lie, I was so nervous! Although I’m a Fora Pro advisor (level 3 of Fora’s 4 current levels), the thought of so much in-person interaction and networking felt daunting as a true introvert. But I should have known that Fora’s incredible community would be even more amazing in real life.

Let’s get into some takeaways:
1. Travel advisors make the magic happen
2. Partnerships are *everything* in this industry - I had a hotel rep say something along the lines of “I really like Fora, I’m about to up your clients’ hotel credit amount”
3. Becoming a Fora advisor has been the best decision for me

I was wined and dined at partner lunches and dinners, toured a $25,000 A NIGHT suite, met with over 50 different travel partners during speed networking, and got to meet so many social media advisor friends in person. Beyond that, I got to hear from our founders and other HQ staff with some great callouts about our individual travel businesses. Like do I actually need an assistant or do I need to automate processes and take other steps to make things simpler for myself? 💡🤔

I book the sun and sand trips well, but I learned so much about adventure travel, Europe (here there and everywhere), and much more…

So if you want to go anywhere in the world & need some help, please consider my services as a resource. 🩷🛫

"Will you ever slow down with traveling?”

Absolutely not!

The truth is, it all clicked on a girls' trip to Thailand. I remember being so afraid about the long flight that I asked my doctor to prescribe some medicine, just in case I started losing it mid-flight. Turns out, didn't even need them!

That was the trip that sparked something in me. I realized travel wasn‘t just about seeing new places; it was about growing as a person.

Now, my mission is to help you create your own travel magic.

I believe travel memories are the ultimate keepsake – one of the few things that last you a lifetime.
