Hey, you wildly successful travelpreneur!
If you’re in the US, I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving! Even if you’re not in the US or don’t celebrate, it’s a great time to remind ourselves of the abundance that’s all around us.
I want you to know that I’m thankful for you and eternally grateful that you allow me to land in your busy inbox each week 🙏. Creating this newsletter has been a truly joyful part of my work this year and you’re a huge part of that. So, thank you!
Since this is the final installment of the Wildly Successful Travelpreneurs newsletter for 2022, I also just want to remind you that I’ll be back in January with a brand new updated version of this newsletter. My vision for this publication has been clarified and this month-long break will give me a chance to rest while also setting things up for a wildly successful 2023 (for you and me😉)!
In the meantime, I wanted to leave you with a little something to show my gratitude…
I didn’t have a Black Friday offer this year. It didn’t feel right and I was overwhelmed with emails myself. It felt like there was nothing worthwhile that I could add to the noise.
But today is #givingtuesday and I would like to give you a gift!
30 days of free access to the Wildly Successful Travelpreneurs membership!

I will be adding new opportunities, brand deals, gigs, and Press Trip callouts to the membership throughout December still, so with this free trial you can get access to these while I hit pause with this newsletter.

Now, let’s move on to…
The Good Stuff 🔥
Just because this newsletter is taking a break, doesn’t mean there isn’t some good stuff taking place in December…
I’m contributing some of my resources to a giveaway (Lizzy’s Christmas Party Goody Bag) and an advent calendar giveaway (A Month of Canva Pro Goodies)!
I will send you separate emails about these once they’re available so that you can snag 1000s of $$$ worth of resources this festive season.
