In this episode, I have the privilege of speaking with Stefanie who runs an incredibly successful non-school sponsored travel program at her school. She shares her journey of building this program from the ground up, including how she recruits students, engages with parents, and uses social media to create a thriving travel community.

We dive into the benefits of running a travel program that’s not school-sponsored, and how being in charge means she has the freedom to design the program on her own terms. From choosing destinations to managing logistics, she’s calling the shots—and it’s paying off.

Join us as we discuss:
