18 hotels

I turned 40!
Got married again in Vegas!
Continued showing Jax the world!
And kept building my business behind the scenes!

I am so fucking grateful for the life I’ve built.

It isn’t always an Instagram reel. There have been lots of tears, struggles,frustrations, rows, pain, knock-backs, hustle, grind and days where it all felt heavy and too much!

But looking back like this? It’s incredibly heart-warming.
Pulling out so many good bits. The special moments.
The blessings. The memories that remind me why I keep going and that it’s always all worth it!

As I head into 2026, two things sit right at the top of my gratitude list:

✨ My beautiful family
✨ And the fact I said YES to this travel business opportunity 4 years ago. A decision that completely changed everything.

I have one piece of advice… decide what you want from life and then work your butt off to get it!

Wishing you all the happiest New Year, and sending so much love and blessings for 2026 🤍✨

Here’s to more memories, more courage and more life well lived xxxx

#2025recap #2025highlights #travellife

When I started my travel business, I didn’t want to build something that felt pushy, confusing or lonely.

I wanted to create a space where people could build their own independent travel businesses, with real support, clear guidance & no pressure.

These reviews are from people I mentor every day. They’re all building businesses in different ways, at different paces and around their different lives and circumstances.

What matters most to me is that the people that I help feel confident, capable, guided and never alone.

If you’ve ever thought about starting a travel business but worried you wouldn’t be supported, wouldn’t know where to start or wouldn’t have the time to make it work… this is what my mentorship looks like.

No pressure. Just support, clarity and encouragement.

The most special Christmas Eve ❤️

Words really can’t explain how special this Christmas feels for us.

Jax has taken a little longer to understand and enjoy this time of year and there have been Christmases that have felt really hard. No Santa meets. No excitement for presents. Some years we’ve just done a couple of gifts, unwrapped, because wrapping paper was too much. There hasn’t always been much ‘magic’ and I’ve just tried to get through the day/season as best as possible.

We’ve waited. We’ve gone at Jax’s pace. We’ve followed what feels safe, comfortable and happy for him.

And this year… we have gotten to do it all 🥹

Tonight I’m going to bed feeling full of gratitude for the little things…. the things that feel absolutely huge at this stage of our journey.

And while I’m so incredibly grateful we’re here, my heart is with the families still in the hard seasons. If that’s you, please know you’re not alone. I completely get it and I’m sending you so much love 🤍

Our Christmas Eve looked like this…
A big walk around Witten Lake, a play in the park, a visit to the fair, home for Christmas Eve boxes, into our PJs, watched Home Alone with a hot chocolate.

And for the very first time ever… we got to do cookies, milk and carrots left out for Santa and his reindeer 🦌🍪

A truly magical day. Feeling so blessed.
I hope you all had the loveliest Christmas Eve too ❤️

P.S. The last photo… I took a picture of our sitting room and asked ChatGPT to add Santa so I could show Jax and it turned out so good! ✨ Can’t wait to show him in the morning xx

Walking through beautiful hotels in Marrakech…
and realising this is part of my work, not a once-a-year treat ❤️

I didn’t start in travel because I ‘knew the industry’.
I started because I wanted flexibility, freedom and a life that felt bigger than the four walls I was working in.

Now I book holidays, create content, help others do the same and yes, I get to stay in some pretty incredible places along the way 🫶🏼

If you’ve ever thought…
‘I’d love to do something like that…’
you can!

Comment TRAVEL or DM me and I’ll show you how 🤍

A cute festive week in the Greens household 💚

Bit more of a lazy one this week but we still got in some epic stuff…

The best afternoon & evening at Winter Wonderland 🎡 it’s the first year Jax really embraced it and we had the best time going on lots of rides & having fun.

A gorgeous afternoon at Willows Farm seeing Santa 🎅🏽 We’ve done a few Santa visits this month and this was by far the best. So much to do at Willows. We had such a nice time.

We viewed some houses this week and I fell in love with a dream home with fields all around 🥹 Feel like I’ve manifested this one and so hoping and praying it’s ours ✨ I’ll share more soon.

We had some cosy days at home while I cleaned and decluttered like a mad woman. Suddenly very aware it’s likely our last Xmas in our home.

Excited for Xmas & even more excited for 2026 ✨🙏🏻 xxx

I’m hosting a Free Online Event ✨

Four years ago, I didn’t wake up thinking ‘I want to build a travel business’

I woke up feeling stressed, anxious and exhausted… working full time while trying to be present for my son & all the mum jobs that running a household involves!

I was fed up with a job I didn’t enjoy and was craving more flexibility, freedom to travel & control over how I spend my days.

I wanted & needed something that worked around my family, gave me passion, joy and a good income.

Coming across this opportunity changed my life in ways I never expected. Building a travel business has given me the freedom and income I didn’t even know was possible at the time.

So on Monday 29th December, I’m hosting a free online event where I’ll be sharing:
• How people actually start a travel business
• What it really looks like day to day
• Who this is (and isn’t) right for
• And how you can get started in 2026

This is for you if:
✨ You love travel
✨ You want flexibility around family life
✨ You’ve been craving something more but don’t know where to start

If you’d like the Zoom link, comment TRAVEL below or send me a DM and I’ll pop the details over to you 🤍

And if you don’t want to wait until the event and would like to get started before Christmas, just message me and I’ll send you over all the info.

Sometimes all it takes is one conversation to change the direction of a whole year ✨
