Why Travel Is Back in the Mix — and Why I’m Focusing on Regent Seven Seas Cruises

I’m still actively selling real estate and Pampered Chef — and now, I’ve added travel back into the mix. I’ve always loved connecting people with great opportunities and experiences, and honestly, I can sell just about anything. But for the next few months, I’ve decided to focus intentionally on one brand: Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

Lately, I’ve been diving deep into their voyages, and I’m truly impressed. Their ships are intentionally smaller, which allows them to sail some really unique and fascinating routes. This means access to incredible destinations that larger ships simply can’t reach, along with more immersive experiences, longer port stays, and thoughtfully curated itineraries.

What really stands out is how purposeful their journeys feel. Instead of rushing from one crowded port to the next, Regent focuses on meaningful travel — deeper cultural connections, enriching excursions, and seamless luxury every step of the way. From hidden European gems to exotic, far-flung destinations, their itineraries are designed for travelers who want both adventure and comfort.

Luxury cruising isn’t just about beautiful ships and five-star service — though Regent certainly delivers that. It’s about ease, elegance, and unforgettable moments. Imagine unpacking once, enjoying world-class dining, personalized service, and waking up in a new destination almost every day. That’s the kind of travel experience I love helping people discover.

So I’m curious — have you ever gone on a luxury cruise, or is it something you’ve thought about? If elevated, stress-free travel sounds appealing, I’d love to help you explore what’s possible.

ATP World Tour Fan...ME...Riding High On the End of Year Results with the #Underdog.

Everybody who follows the ATP World Tour will remember this year as the year Rafael Nadal won the comeback of the year award and earned the year end #1 ranking. Rafa is amazing! This time last year most people would have said we miss him but we won't be surprised if Rafa doesn't come back. That is a huge story. I am now a big Stan Wawrinka fan. Not because he is such a shining star. He sparkled at the Australian Open back in January. I tend to follow a lot of my tennis idols on Twitter and Facebook. I actually write them fan mail all the time. I am floored at becoming a Stan fan at the precise moment he became the miracle of the year. Rafa recovered...Stan has transformed... I call him an underdog and he is by every definition of the word THE UNDERDOG in the final four this year at the ATP World Tour End of Year Championship. Back in January I told Stan I was rooting for him to make it to the final top eight players for the End of Year Championship. And a few d...

Substitute Teacher Advice for Seniors

Enjoying the Kickback Days of Life Originally published on Yahoo Voices May 17, 2014 Substitute teachers, just like everyone else, see graduation as a major rite of passage for seniors graduating from high school. From our perspective, students and teachers tend to have more than a few days of kicking back at the end of the school year, knowing with great relief that another school year is delivering another graduating class. What is my advice to high school seniors? Think of life like those last couple weeks of high school. It's finished. You know you have grown from a little kid who can't skip to a young adult who is ready to go out into the world to work or go off to college chewing gum and walking straight at the same time. Life is good. Your teacher takes off a few days towards the end of the school year and you get me, the substitute, to show you that Disney video. Your teacher left the movie as a treat for the class of students whose high school careers are done ...
