  • Organization and technology too

    Getting organized always helps, but from the very first show I listened to I got some great advice about getting organized. One speaker mentioned, keep finding the why when planning travel. I seem to always be planning but this might help get focused.

  • Great Podcast and Awesome Challenges

    Wow! Angel and MacKenzie know their stuff! I have leaned so much from them through their recent Tavel Summits! Their style is so casual and fun but they give you so many “Aha!” genius moments as you listen to them. Amazing info to save you money or gain lots of extra miles or points. Their Podcast is my favorite listen. Check it out!

  • Virtual summit

    Very helpful event and podcast! Lots of things to learn depending on how you travel and your interests! I learned new things to incorporate on my phone to make travel easier, such as downloading google maps offline so you can still navigate when your internet connectivity is spotty and using a esim to have better connectivity in the country you’re traveling to.

  • Good topics - keep ironing out the wrinkles!

    Just listened to the most recent episode (92) and discovered the struggle of not being able to say Chase or the names of its credit cards on podcasts anymore! The work-around chosen in this episode didn’t work, but keep trying! That’s got to be tough… I like the range of topics and get excited to listen to them. With editing and practice to eliminate unneeded phrases and sentences in the conversation, this podcast will be even more engaging and relevant. Best wishes!
