Traveling, especially with loved ones, can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also be extremely frustrating and overwhelming. You spend so much time trying to find the best places to go, the perfect places to stay, things to do that will be fun and easy for everyone, the best flight itinerary, and loads of other logistics like passports and transportation and phone plans and money exchanging.

Even thinking about it causes you stress.

And let’s not even mention travel delays, lost luggage, missed flights and all of the other things that can and do, go wrong.

The list is so long that it’s a wonder why anyone even wants to travel.

And to top it off, you oftentimes come home from your “vacation” feeling like you need a vacation.  Or worse yet, it wasn’t the bonding experience with your family that you had dreamed of.  You may have spent a lot of time arguing or stressed or tired and it just wasn’t that much fun.  And you also spent a ton of money, so now you have to start saving up again for that “ultimate” travel experience, which this time it’s going to be great.

But how?  How is it going to be different this time?  That’s the important question to ask.  Because if you do the same things for the next trip, you’re going to get the same results.

That’s where I come in.  I started travel coaching to help people with the overwhelm and stress of planning their trips themselves and to offer concrete tools to use when things go wrong. As a travel coach, I can be involved as much or as little as you would like.

As my husband and I began to plan our honeymoon we quickly became overwhelmed. The opportunities
were limitless, as were the details needed to plan the adventure we wanted. Trish stepped in and
provided personal coaching to help us focus our vision and reduce the stress of vacation planning. She
gave us some suggestions and offered her travel services to plan the details.

The result was the adventure of a lifetime with none of the stress, doubt and frustration of planning alone!

The first thing Trish did was help us understand our vision of the vacation with personal coaching
delivered in a series of phone calls and emails. Trish has traveled the world and loves less touristy, more
intimate international experiences. Her experience is such a benefit to vacation planning. She suggested
a handful of locations to help us select Croatia as our destination.

Excitement replaced worry as we waited for Trish’s detailed suggestions!

Trish quickly helped organized everything: flights, in-country travel, lodging, and even some of our excursions.
She delivered the plan to us in a daily itinerary that included all the details we might need if
there were any hiccups – as are inevitable in travel. Except there were no hiccups. Trish’s planning was
exceptional and detailed. She does an incredible amount of research to be sure the suggestions she
makes fulfill your vacation dreams.

Trish is easy to work with, kind, respectful, funny and a great listener. The vacation was pure bliss, made possible with Trish’s support.

Highly recommend!
