Am I the last person on earth that still uses a physical planner? I don’t use any online scheduling or task apps. I write things down because your brain remembers better that way.

In the last week I’ve had 3 people tell me:

- They’re getting published in Business Insider because of me
- They got LinkedIn Premium free for a year because of me
- They’re attempting a 12 trips in 12 months challenge in 2025 inspired by my book

You think you don’t have an impact, but you do.

Did I squeeze in a national TV interview on Christmas Eve, my 29th TV interview of the year? You betcha! Santa works hard and so do I 😉🎄🌟

This year, I threw myself into New York City traffic in a poofy green dress to celebrate my book being on a billboard! A real life Carrie Bradshaw moment 🤩 #author

I asked about recommendations for restaurants in Mexico City to plan a birthday dinner and someone asked me if for a couple or group of friends.

LOL neither — option C! For me to sit at a table, order fancy food, feast, and celebrate me, with me, for me. #solotravel

My rules for solo travel:

- I only sleep in rooms with a deadbolt between me & the rest of the world at night
- I research (and if possible, arrange) airport transportation before I arrive at a destination
- I share my location with someone who expects to hear from me daily

Christmas shopping is done! Is it me or did it feel extra stressful and down to the wire this year? 😅

I have friends who are travel bloggers and they named their first baby Miles Atlas. Honestly, goals 🥰✈️ #travel
