Here's What My Ironman 70.3 And Your Travel Advising Have In Common

5/21/2021
They are both ENDURANCE SPORTS Allow me to explain ... On May 15, 2021 I successfully completed my very first triathlon. At age 57 and true to form, I decided to go BIG and race the Ironman 70.3 Gulf Coast! After 6 hours, 55 minutes and 25 seconds of swimming, biking, running and a few recent days of reflection, I see the inspiring parallels of what you do as a travel advisor and what I did as a triathlete. WARNING: THIS IS FAR FROM A WORKSHOP PODCAST!!! 1. I open with a selection of motivating quotes and insightful stories proving my theory. 2. Then, witness a LIVE one-on-one coaching session with a super-star travel advisor who found herself lingering on the STRUGGLE BUS. If this program doesn't move you - I don't know what would! Heck, give me a review so I know! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stuart's top 10 smarter procedures WILL produce better results AND perhaps you can handle more than one group at a time in the future! Pay close attention. Take notes.
