We just finished up an incredible week with our Dream Vacations family, where we connected with suppliers and absorbed invaluable insights into the travel industry’s latest trends and outlook.
This year’s conference theme, “Thrive,” resonates deeply with me for very personal reasons that I haven’t yet shared on my Bon Vivant Escapes account.
Two years ago, I faced a breast cancer diagnosis and started on a healing journey that transformed my perspective on life. A dear friend reminded me that I was not just a “Survivor,” but a “Thriver.” ✨
Inspired by this, I made a heartfelt promise to myself: not only would I survive, but I would also thrive throughout this journey.
While there were moments when I felt set back and watched the world carry on past me, prioritizing my healing and recovery, I stand here today, two years later, proud to say that Bon Vivant Escapes is not just surviving—it is truly thriving! This past year has been remarkable, with a 57% increase in helping clients turn their dream vacations into reality. I have expanded my franchise team with two amazing associates and continued to travel the world, navigating my travel around 7 surgeries in 2 years, it was so important to me to continue to gather the best experiences to share with our clients.
As I reflect on this journey, I am so grateful for the support and growth that have come my way.
Not only from my family and friends…but my Dream Vacations family so leaned in and helped me in ways I never imagined. I am so grateful to them all!
You know who you are!🥰
A HUGE thank you to World Travel Holdings and Dream Vacations for providing so much more than these learning opportunities….but also a family that I know will always be there no matter what journey life takes me on! 🙏🏻💕
So, here’s to thriving together, embracing every moment, and making dreams come true! 🌟
