On this episode of the No BS Travel Advisor Podcast, Marcie Muensterman delivers big-sister tough love to travel advisors who say they want growth, freedom, and scale but refuse to slow down long enough to actually take the time to make it happen.

Marcie shares what she sees constantly in her DMs: advisors who want to hire, onboard more revenue, travel laptop-free, spend more time with family, or start a second business — yet have no plan, no systems, and no follow-through. 

Courses sit unopened. Coaching goes unimplemented. Conferences inspire… nothing.

This episode is a candid conversation about taking personal responsibility, why trying to build a business in the “nooks and crannies” never works, and how refusing to pause is the fastest way to stay stuck.
