If you just signed a contract or are considering becoming a travel agent.... There is SO MUCH TO KNOW! Way more than you think. That's where I come in. I'm not a recruiter or an MLM "boss babe." I am a 20-year veteran sales expert and mentor to TAs who need ACTUAL help.
Hosts vs. travel agency owners vs. being independent. 1099 IC. LLCs. Commission splits (that should start at 70/30). Certifications. Vendor trainings. CRMs. Suppliers… How do you even start to build a successful travel business, and what do all these acronyms mean?
HERE'S THE TRUTH: Most new travel agents waste months (or years) piecing together free advice from the most random sources.
That’s not you. You want to start strong, make money faster, and skip the rookie mistakes that kill momentum. That’s why I built "The No BS Guide to Becoming a Travel Advisor." It's a straight-shooting, step-by-step course on the ins and outs of launching your TA business the smart way.

Discounting your fees (or not charging at all - YIKES).
Accepting a 60/40 commission split (ouch).
Chasing leads that ghost you.
Sending multi-day itineraries for "just curious" prospects that leave you on read in the DMs.
This industry doesn’t need another smiling, over-accommodating, people-pleasing advisor with a roster full of tire kickers.
It needs women who are service-first closers, who demand respect with their boundaries, who book like badasses, get paid what they are worth, and who don't bend to every low-budget whim.
You’ve been doing this shit backwards.
Let’s be so fucking for real.

That's you.
You started your travel business for freedom, money,
and a legacy your kids can’t ignore.
You started your travel business for freedom, money, and a legacy your kids can’t ignore.
But somewhere along the way, you got distracted. Overwhelmed. Discouraged.
And that toxic little voice is whispering, “You should just be grateful."
You've listened to MLM recruiters and theme-park agencies with 60/40 commission splits tell you absolute LIES about our industry. (You DO need more than $99 and a laptop, babes.)
You invested in shiny classes that never actually taught you how to convert a DM into an actual booking.
You have clients treating you like you're fucking Expedia.
Um, no. That
outdated shit is
unwelcome here.

You may be an ADHD woman who is caretaking AND trying to build a sustainable income. Maybe you're desperate for more free time to spend with family, fewer working hours, and the ability to set and maintain solid boundaries. Or, maybe you're just a newbie trying to figure out how the hell to start a travel agent business.
Wherever you are in your TA journey, I can help you build the life you're dreaming of. But only if you're ready to put in the fucking work.
I see You. I know you.
I probably was (and still am!) some version of you. I know from experience how hard it is to get organized, feel confident, and want this business while simultaneously being everything to everyone.
That's why I teach travel advisors how to build high-profit, no-compromise travel businesses that don’t require begging, burnout, or bending over backward for broke-ass strangers on the internet.
Y'all. I get It.
It’s about partnering with the right travel agency host, making the most money you can in this lifetime doing what you love while attracting aligned clients, delivering real value, having everything you want!
This isn’t about chasing every booking or working 24/7 to "look successful."
I also know that the internet is full of outdated AF advice from SOME agency owners who only pretend to care. That's not me. I know that you need more. I am not recruiting you to my team, but I do want to see you SOAR!
Why? Because I know that you traded your dreams of freedom in this career for an endless hustle.
I am obsessed with sharing everything I know through "clear is kind" coaching.
no gatekeeping. no bullshit.
