  • #160 Construction to Creator; Blake and Morgan Hill's Influencer (and RV) Journey
    Nov 9 2024

    Blake and Morgan Hill are influencers that are living out their dreams of being full time content creators who will soon be traveling the country in an RV adventure.

    This episode comes naturally from Blake's discussion with our internship team that provided such rich, valuable lessons we simply had to share on our platform. Thank you to Miranda, Ivy, and Harinder for some excellent questions.

    Imagine taking the leap to travel with your wife full time, enjoy luxury experiences, dine in world renown restaurants, and then "having" to capture it all on video and photos (for a job)!

    He shares his inspiring journey from having a criminal justice degree to working in construction and eventually starting a drone business. His wife Morgan, a former sports reporter, transitioned to being a full-time influencer and social media marketer. Together, they have leveraged their skills and passions to create content for brands across different platforms, making their dream of traveling the country in an RV a reality.

    Blake emphasizes the importance of taking risks, being authentic, and working with brands that align with their values. He also offers practical advice on content creation, the use of social media, and the importance of perseverance.

  • #158 Velia Kennedy; Accepting and Truly Being (and Selling) "All-Inclusive" - Travel Advisor of The Year
    Oct 24 2024

    What does it take to be named ASTA's Travel Advisor of the Year? Reputation, values, and creativity all helped Velia Kennedy, the founder of Modern Family Travel, earn this recognition.


    When I met her at a KINDNESS CONFERENCE, I was drawn into her authentic being. Not pretentious, not fancy, but extremely real.


    She shares her evolution from pursuing early childhood education to selling engineering software, and eventually establishing her own travel agency. Despite exceling in corporate sales, Velia felt unfulfilled and pivoted towards her passion for travel, focusing on creating meaningful family experiences.


    Our discussion emphasizes the value of authenticity, compassion, and personal fulfillment. Velia's journey underscores the importance of aligning one's career with personal values, being open to new opportunities, and stepping out of comfort zones.


    Her story, encapsulated by winning the 2024 ASTA Travel Advisor of the Year award, highlights the impact of authenticity in business and the importance of taking chances to find true satisfaction. Lessons to overcome fear include exploring varied career possibilities, prioritizing personal fulfillment over societal expectations, and the transformative power of kindness and authenticity in building a successful business.
