Want to Learn to Live the Good Life?
Let’s talk ship about balancing today’s dream trips with tomorrow’s goals.
Snag My Seat!Join me for a live online chat that’s part cruise tips, part money talk, and all about living your best life now... not “someday.”
This isn’t a boring finance webinar. It’s a live, candid session where we're gonna talk ship about my favorite thing... cruising, and how to cruise to more often. I'll spill my favorite cruise savings hacks, behind-the-scenes travel tips, and the actual strategies I’ve used to cruise more often, spend less, and still enjoy everyday life. This is my very involved way of fully answering the most commonly asked question I get, which is "how do you cruise so often?!"
And I’m not doing it alone... my friend, personal financial advisor, and cruise bestie Lisa Wagner will be right there with me. Lisa is the opposite of what you picture when you think “financial advisor.” She’s warm, funny, and completely judgment-free. She gets that life isn’t about sacrificing joy now to maybe have fun decades down the road, and she never nags me for my stupid degenerate casino spending. ;)
I despise all things financial planning, but she’s helped me make smarter money moves while still keeping the excursions planned and cruises booked, and she'll join me live to help you figure out how to do it, too!Â
Plus, I'll be giving away a complimentary cruise (details below) to one lucky attendee!
