EF Ultimate Break: My Take

Why Working with a Travel Advisor Changes EVERYTHING - with Matthew Alexander

Have you ever brushed off the idea of working with a travel advisor? Maybe you’ve heard the term, seen a post, or even been handed a business card… and thought, “I don’t need that.” In this episode, I sit down with my colleague Matthew Alexander, a fellow Fora travel advisor, to debunk the biggest misconceptions around working with travel advisors. We break down what travel advisors actually do, who can benefit from working with one (spoiler alert.... it's everyone), and why this role looks nothing like the outdated stereotypes people still associate with it. We also share the unique value we each bring to the table as advisors — from personalized planning and industry access to support, accessibility, strategy, and peace of mind — and why having a travel advisor can completely change the way you experience travel. If you’ve ever wondered whether a travel advisor is really worth it, this episode is for you.

The Real Reason You Haven't Traveled Yet (and How to Fix It)

In this impromptu episode, I get real and raw about how fear disguises itself as "logic" - and how shifting my mindset from "one day" to "right now" completely changed my life. From changing my college major to taking my first volunteer trip abroad, I share how following intuition instead of fear led me to a life of travel, freedom, and purpose - and how you can do it too. The reality is, it's so much easier than you think! If you've ever told yourself "someday" , this is your sign to start planning your now.
