Hello! In case we haven’t been introduced, I’m Molly!
I started my journey as a Travel Advisor in 2022. After being laid off in the pandemic from my lengthy career in the corporate world as an Executive and Personal Assistant, I struggled to figure out what was next.
I remember a careers class I had in high school asked “if money didn’t matter what would you want to do with your time?” Basically if you answered something like “work on cars” then maybe you should look into being a mechanic. The thing was, I never really had a good answer to that.
I posed that question to myself again and this time I answered. I would just plan trips all the time. Something about the planning part of it has always been so enjoyable to me. The organization. The lists. I’ve been pouring my time and energy into this business ever since. I love it!
I love helping people take unforgettable adventures either on their own or with loved ones. I’ve taken a lot of my skills from my corporate career and transferred them into helping all of my clients have magical vacations that will create lifetime of memories!
If you’re ready for your next adventure please reach out! I’d love to help! 💜
What type of escape are you choosing?
📸 A sightseeing tour
🏖️ A long relaxing beach day
⛰️ A zip line adventure
For me it would be the sightseeing tour. I love exploring new places or even learning more about places I’ve already been.
I’d be too scared to zip line. I’d be up for the beach day under the right circumstances but it’s not my first pick.
Let me know what you would choose! 💜
🕺 🚡 Would a stay at Disney’s Pop Century Resort be right for you?
This is by far the value resort I book the most. With good reason. It’s affordable, it has fun larger than life theming set to the decades of the 50s-90s and it’s on the Skyliner for easy transportation to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios!
The rooms are equal to what you’d find at other value resorts. Dining options are limited to a food court and grab and go options.
The location is just across from Art of Animation resort at the end of the line for the Skyliner which is really what sets this resort apart.
Take a look at my full list of pros and cons to see if this would be the right fit for you! Let me know what questions you have about this resort.
Are you a big fan of Pop Century? What would you add to this list? 💜
Okay I know the quote isn’t actually from Figment, but he’s right!
Being able to help people plan trips is not something I thought I’d be doing as a career, but it truly has been a dream come true for me.
Thank you for everyone who trusts me to help with all the details of their vacations! For letting me tap into the creative parts of my brain that were long going unused. I feel so lucky to get to do what I do and it is so fulfilling to see you travel and spend time with your loved ones and come back with so many stories to tell.
Also thank you to everyone who supports this page and my business by commenting, liking, sharing and just bringing up my name in conversations. It all means so much to me. 💜
Okay, let me know - if all the places you’ve been, what place has been your favorite so far?
I’ll go first! It might surprise you - Venice, Italy. It was a very long time ago (2001) but I think about how magical it felt often.
I would love to go back with the family in tow someday. 💜
BREAKING! Stay at a theme park! Universal Helios Grand Hotel, a Loews Hotel, will be a majestic gateway to Universal Epic Universe at Universal Orlando Resort. Opening in 2025.

🏝️ 🐚 Would a stay at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort be right for you?
This resort holds a special place in my heart as it was the first resort we stayed in as a family. We absolutely loved it! We were in a Preferred Room so close to the main building and pool. It was just a short walk over to Riviera so we had double the food options (I’m a big fan of their quick service restaurant).
This was before any renovations, but the rooms were comfortable - if a little small for all of us to spread out in - and the 5th sleeper was a great addition for the kids to spread out a bit from each other. We loved and spent a LOT of time in the pool and splash pad area and watching the skyliner go by was the coolest vibe.
Take a look at my full list of pros and cons to see if this would be the right fit for you! Let me know what questions you have about this resort.
If you’ve stayed here what would you add to this list? 💜

There is so much more to travel than just getting away. You really do learn so much from it. Big and small. Here are a few things I’ve learned:
💜 To appreciate (and respect) different cultures.
💜 That I am not a sit in the beach for a week person. Sure I love to do that for a day or for a few hours each day even, but I prefer to be walking around seeing the sites on my vacations. (Maybe that’s why I love walking 20k steps everyday at Disney)
💜 That kindness can go a long way, especially if you don’t speak the language. Everyone understands kindness.
💜 The world is huge, and I’ll never see all of it. That makes me appreciate what I can see.
💜 That I am really good at packing - I pack a lot, but efficiently.
💜 There is so much more to learn.
Travel has taught me that I don’t know as much as I think I do and that’s humbling in the best way. There is always a new adventure out there!
Have you learned something unexpected through traveling? I’d love to hear about it! Do you prefer an active or relaxing vacation? Or a little bit of both? 💜
If you were a theme park attraction what would you be?
I would be a fun, upbeat, dark ride. Nice and easy, no thrills or drops. Makes you giggle. Songs to sing along to. Definitely a nice break in the air conditioning. Does occasionally break down. Is it everyone’s favorite? No. But there is a small loyal following who would riot if you tried to remove me from the park. 💜
How about you?
🦒 🐘 Would a stay at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge be right for you?
One year ago today I was living the life in a Savanna View room here and honestly I’d go back in a heartbeat. This one had been on my bucket list for a while. We were supposed to stay here in 2020 and well… I think you can guess how that turned out. So this was our redemption tour!
The rooms are spacious and comfortable. I love the vibes here so much. The lobby is stunning! So many unique (and familiar) food options around the resort to choose from. Honestly there is so much to see and do I felt I needed more than a week to do it all.
Take a look at my full list of pros and cons to see if this would be the fit for you! I’m happy to answer any questions you have about this resort.
If you’ve stayed here, what would you add to the pros and cons list? 💜
Disney parks are always changing and by the looks of it, they won’t be slowing down anytime soon. It’s a lot to keep up with so do yourself a favor and book with someone who knows way too much about these parks!
I visit frequently, keep up to date on news, and take regular trainings through the company to make sure you are making the most of your time and money while visiting.
My goal is to make your trip as magical and stress free as possible. Consider me your own personal guide to the magic! 💜
If you could just teleport anywhere right now, where would you go?
For me I’d hop into Tokyo. The travel time required is really keeping that one on my list and not a reality. Someday!
How about you? 💜
This is something I get a lot - “oh don’t you just book Disney?”
Look Disney is both my favorite child and the most complicated so she gets a lot of air time. But I do book a lot more than that. I have access to suppliers that book just about everything you could think of, honestly. I am constantly updating and adding trainings in new destinations and with trusted suppliers (about to start a full training on the Hawaiian Islands!)
I also know a lot of other amazing Travel Advisors, so if I can’t help you, I bet I know someone who can.
Feel free to reach out about whatever adventure you’re thinking of! I’d love to help! 💜
If you could live in any vacation destination in the world, where would you choose to be?
I’d love to live at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park and just walk around with the animals every morning. Fall asleep to the soothing sounds of Pandora.
How about you? 💜
Helping Jodi plan this 14 day African Camping Safari was so much fun! I am so jealous of the amazing adventure she had.
With a trip like this there are so many moving parts and pieces and we did have to deal with a few hiccups along the way. All in all it was certainly an adventure and now she has the most amazing memories to take with her forever!
Don’t hesitate to reach out about other adventures like this one. Guided small group travel can be the perfect fit for international trips! I’d love to help you make that bucket list trip a reality! 💜

Take a look! Need help deciding give me a shout!
What uncommon item do you pack, that has turned out to be useful? I’ll go first.
I pack a drawer organizer that I use to corral all the stuff on the bathroom counter. The one I use is the SKUBB line from IKEA. I like it because it zips down flat and takes up almost zero space in my suitcase.
Having all our/my everyday bathroom items out on the counter top (and sometimes there isn’t much space there to begin with) can feel cluttered and this just helps keep them in one place and you can easily move them if needed.
I like to think housekeeping appreciates it and gives me a little mental gold star too. ⭐️
It’s small and maybe a little silly but has really improved my mood while staying in hotels.
I’ll leave my close second place pick in the comments! Tell me yours! 💜
Working with Molly and her family on a recent Disneyland trip was so much fun! I was so jealous they got to experience Pixar Fest!
Molly’s daughter asked her to send me a picture one morning of their trip to thank me and I was so emotional after. 💜 This is why I love helping people plan memorable trips. It’s so fun to help you live these magical moments. I treat each one with the same care as if it were my own trip.

Kailene’s sweet family needed some last minute help with their Disneyland trip and I was so glad they came to me!
I was able to secure them two rooms at the resort they wanted and put in their request to have them connecting (this is not guaranteed, but I do find that Disney resorts do their very best to honor these requests).
We had to work quickly on this one but that was honestly kind of fun! Never hesitate to reach out for last minute trips or requests. I will be happy to do my best to get you what you’re looking for! 💜
As your Travel Advisor I will help you narrow down all the choices you have to make when planning your vacation.
Where to stay, where to eat, what activities are worth the money and what should you maybe skip this time.
Need an accommodation or service while traveling? I can help you there too! Grocery delivery, equipment rentals, celebration cakes, and even childcare! I have lots of trusted vendors and can tap into my network for anything else!
Let’s work together to make your next trip as stress free as possible! 💜

Cape May Cafe is such a fun choice for a character breakfast at Walt Disney World! This meal is located over at the Beach Club Resort and during my recent stay with Sebastian for his birthday we had to check it out. We ended up going on our departure day and it was the last bit of Disney Magic we needed to keep the Disney Blues from setting in. The atmosphere is a fun beach party and the characters were having a blast interacting with everyone. We were giggling the whole time. The food was really good, but you’ll find a pretty standard buffet breakfast here. Great for picky eaters or anyone who’s just here for the Mickey… I’m sorry (checks notes) Minnie waffles. Make sure you leave time tonight enjoy it. Would be great for a rest/resort day or a day where you’re getting a later start at EPCOT or Hollywood Studios since they are both a walk, boat or skyliner ride away! Characters only appear at breakfast so keep that in mind. Have you dined here before or would you add it to your list next visit? 💜
Thanks Genie! 🧞♂️ Enjoy your freedom! 💜
Rumor has it the Beast may start doing meet and greets again at Be Our Guest! We had a rough experience here the last time we went. It was just after the pandemic and we were seated in the West Wing. Lyra hates loud noises - thunder specifically - so she had her ears plugged the whole meal. Then we got basically a run by glimpse of the Beast during our meal and that was it. He stepped in the room - didn’t walk around, and turned and left. My actual reaction caught on tape. Lol. This change would probably get me to try it again. How about you? 💜
