Q: Who or what inspired you to start your business?
A: My husband, family, and friends were a huge part of my inspiration. My husband encouraged me to follow my passion for travel and helping others create unforgettable experiences. My loved ones saw my talent for organizing trips and constantly pushed me to turn that passion into something greater. Their belief in me gave me the courage to take the leap—and now I get to help others explore the world in ways that are meaningful and fulfilling.
Q: What has been your most satisfying or rewarding moment in business?
A: One of the most rewarding moments was successfully organizing a mission trip for a local church group. Despite all the logistical and budget-related challenges, the trip came together beautifully. Seeing the joy, unity, and fulfillment on the participants’ faces reminded me of why I do this work—it’s about more than just travel, it’s about enriching lives and creating lasting memories.
Q: How do you manage your work-life balance?
A: I manage by setting clear boundaries between work and personal time. I schedule specific work hours and make sure to unplug afterward to spend time with family and practice self-care. I use a planner to stay organized and prioritize my tasks, and I remain flexible when needed without compromising my personal time. Cooking, relaxing, and spending time with loved ones keeps me grounded and refreshed.
Q: What motivates you when you are faced with adversity?
A: My passion for what I do and the support of my family and friends keep me motivated. I see every challenge as a learning opportunity. Whenever I feel overwhelmed, I remind myself of my purpose—to create meaningful travel experiences for others—and I push through with gratitude and resilience.
Q: What advice do you have for women going through challenges?
A: Never forget how strong you are. Challenges don’t define you—it’s how you rise above them that matters. It’s okay to feel uncertain, but don’t let that stop you from moving forward. Surround yourself with people who lift you up, ask for help when needed, and prioritize your mental and emotional well-being. Trust yourself and know that every setback is part of your growth.
Q: What is your take on woman-to-woman inspiration?
A: It’s one of the most beautiful forms of support we can give. When women share their stories, their struggles, and their victories, we create a space where other women feel seen and empowered. It’s about community, not competition. Together, we can rise higher than we ever could alone.
