June 23, 2023 Episode #100 - "The 100th Episode - What We've Learned So Far"
We celebrate our 100th episode today as Mark takes a look back, (and a little look forward) at the first 100 episodes of "Travel Evolved." The series has been a benchmark for new and veteran travelers alike, openly discussing topics that until now, have been silent from all travel agencies. There is still a lot we have to cover over the next seasons, but this episode should spark your interest in a few specific topics we've covered and also those numerous topics Mark has yet to address, (but will soon).

June 17, 2023 Episode #99 - "NextGen MedStaff"
On today's episode Mark finally goes in to detail about NextGen MedStaff. It's about time! He gives our listeners all the reasons he got back into healthcare staffing and why "Travel Evolved" is such a great companion to the exact, educated, well-informed, evolved traveler that is such a perfect match for NextGen MedStaff. He discusses how being completely open about EVERYTHING that there is to know and understand about how agencies establish their margins, consider your pay-rates, and drive their own sales and participation of you with their agency is better for NGMS and it's future as a leader in new healthcare staffing technology. The longest episode we have ever released.. but oh, so worth the listen!

June 11, 2023 Episode #98 - "Mental Health"
On today's episode Mark does his best to introduce the subject of mental health to "Travel Evolved." We believe that this is another piece of the "evolved" traveler that takes every part of this career into careful inspection. While none of us here at "Travel Evolved" are any type of expert on this topic we felt it was an important inclusion to this podcast/YouTube channel. Hopefully a few travelers will do their best to keep an eye on their own and fellow traveler's mental health that is so vital for success for today's traveler.

June 05, 2023 Episode #97 - "VMSs vs. MSPs"
On today's episode Mark goes into greater detail on the "slice" of the "pie" that is Vendors and specifically, what the difference is between VMSs and MSPs. It is important for "evolved" travelers to understand exactly where each and every dollar of the bill rate goes to in the process of determining your travel pay rate. Understanding how these vendors work is critical in understanding how hospitals set the proposed bill rates and how that is divvied up to give the traveler what is remaining after agencies take their share and your payroll taxes are applied. An important episode and a great follow-up to our "Vendor" episode.

May 30, 2023 Episode #96 - "The Bucket-List"
On today's episode, Mark talks about the opportunities that being a healthcare traveler can provide to those that actively look to check of their own individual "bucket-list." Many people wait until they are retired or in the twilight of their life to actively pursue the things they have always wanted to do. Today's episode concetrates on the idea that thrre might be a whole lot of those items that a traveler can accomplish while they are still working on the road. A good listen to remoind yourself of one of the many perks being a traveler offers.

May 24, 2023 Episode #95 - "Advocating for Yourself" w/NGMS travelers Maria Moreno, RN and Nnamdi Ukanwa, RN
On today's episode, Mark welcomes NextGen MedStaff travelers, Maria Moreno, RN and Nnamdi Ukanwa, RN. This episode is specifically dedicated to these two travelers that found NextGen MedStaff because of this YouTube and podcast platform. As relatively "new" travelers, they listened and learned how to become more "evolved" as travelers and it is because of that eperience, they found their way directly to NextGen MedStaff. Today's episode is unique in that they discuss with our host, Mark how they have become more informed and therefore stronger as travelers due to their pursuit of "traveler knowledge." They openly discuss how important advocating is for today's traveler as learing how the whole process works which made them formidable and stronger as a traveling pair. A great culmination of almost 2 seasons on "Travel Evolved."

May 17, 2023 Episode #94 - "Traveling with a Partner"
Today's episode focuses on the large amount of travelers that want to, or need to travel together. It always adds a more complicated wrinkle in the fold of getting a placement, (now two placements). Mark discusses tips and ways that can help or ease that process to work toward a larger amount of offers and placements. A great listen for those that have thought about traveling as a pair.

May 11, 2023 Episode #93 - "How Recruiters Make Money"
On today's episode Mark explains the process and commission and of course the operating expenses that are "typical" of the majority of travel agencies out there. It is part of the system in which most travelers work through so it is an extremely important peice that every traveler should understand. Bill rates, commissions, agency margins, and especially travel pay offers are ALL affectied by each individual agency's recruiter compensation plan. An absolute "must-listne" for any traveler who wants to be able to consistantly be paid higher than most!

May 05, 2023 Episode #92 - "What the Hell is Going On?"
On today's episode Mark takes a break from the scheduled episodes to answer the questions he has been receiving about the current martketplace for healthcare travelers. There certainly is a question as to why it seems like there is either a low demand for travelers, a high supply of available travelers, or a combination of both. He gives some examples of what he is hearing from other CEOs, many travelers, and even some additional suggestions he has discussed with other industry leaders. This episode gives you some solid suggestions to get through this somewhat unique time in "travel."
