  • #12 - Tammi Grant - Creating a Plan B

    It’s all about freeing up your future in this episode with Christine and her guest, Tammi Grant. She’s the founder and CEO of Travel Whirled. From reinventing yourself to rebuilding your future, Tammi shows what it takes to build a travel agency during COVID! How does travel even look like right now? Stay tuned!

    Here are the things to expect in the episode:

    • The importance of preparing for the future.
    • Don’t talk to the people who don’t understand your dreams!
    • How travel can be more accessible now.
    • Doing things despite your fear and the risks involved.
    • And much more!
    • Things might be falling apart for now, but you don’t know if they’re actually falling into place!

      About Tammi Grant:

      From a home base just outside Metro Philadelphia, I relish working as a travel agent, planner and advisor for clients of all ages and walks of life. My niche is designing trips that cater to individual interests while providing ways to experience them in new and exciting ways. I take the stress out of planning and executing vacations, leaving travelers free to relax and enjoy their well-earned getaways.

      Culinary travel is a special passion of mine, and I’m constantly seeking ways to incorporate local culture and food into every journey I book for fellow explorers. From wine tours to cooking classes, beer festivals, local markets or culinary cruises, food is a universal language that unites travelers with locals across the globe.

      I’ve followed foodie trails in France, Italy, the Caribbean, Bermuda, Tunisia, Mexico and South Korea, as well as the many diverse regions of America – and I delight in sharing this knowledge and expertise with others who dare to roam.

      Working hard to maintain a level of professionalism, I hold memberships in travel-industry groups such as the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) and the American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA).

      Building relationships and connecting people is a gift and a skill that I’ve nourished in all aspects of life. This translates into insider tips and life-fulfilling journeys for sojourners in my care.

      When not traveling myself of helping others mark destinations off their bucket lists, I enjoy delving into a good thriller novel or self-improvement book. You’ll also find me hosting scary movie nights, game gatherings and backyard barbecues for family and friends.

    • #11 - Daniel Marcos - The Keys to Growth

      It’s all about growth in this episode with Christine and her guest, Daniel Marcos. From the habit of reading, having the right mindset, to the significance of technology, Daniel reveals the keys to growth.

      Get ready for tons of value jam-packed in a podcast under 20 minutes!

      Here are the things to expect in the episode:

      • The value of showing up every single time. You only fail if you quit!
      • Unlocking an unlimited wealth of knowledge through reading.
      • Knowing the appropriate solution to your specific situation.
      • Accepting the brutal facts and the things you can’t control.
      • And much more!
      • About Daniel Marcos:

        Daniel Marcos is the co-founder and CEO of Growth Institute, the leading online executive education company for C-level executives at fast-growing firms. He is a keynote speaker and a CEO Coach, with a mission to help 1 million entrepreneurs scale their impact and reduce drama in the process.

        He is a member of YPO and EO and is a certified coach in the Scaling Up methodology. He is a graduate of EO’s premiere CEO program, the “Birthing of Giants”, and he holds a BS in Industrial and Systems Engineering from ITESM (Monterrey Tech) and an MBA

        from Babson College.

        Daniel was an early entrepreneur. He started a t-shirt business at the age of eight and then partnered with a car detailing franchise to provide cleaning services throughout his high school years. In the year 2000, he built an online trading business that was acquired within six months by what was Argentina's largest financial player at the time.

        Daniel’s next business launched just before the untimely crash of the financial markets in 2008. His business was shut down and Daniel took on $1 million in debt. Despite the recent setback, Daniel had an abundance of experience and successes under his belt and had recently been recognized in Expansion Magazine's “30 under 30”.

        As a serial entrepreneur, Daniel quickly realized that CEOs are often the bottleneck of the company. In the same way that you can’t solve a problem without first elevating your mindset, a business can’t evolve beyond what the CEO can handle.

        Daniel partnered with Verne Harnish in 2012 to bring executive training to the masses. What was once reserved for a small niche of wealthy companies is now available to all CEOs and their executive teams.

        In less than a decade, Growth Institute has been recognized among the top 5,000 fastest-growing companies in the USA, with over 40,000 members across 64 countries.
