Dear ,

As we look at travel in a post-COVID world, one of the questions women are asking is: ‘how can we help both places and people thrive?’ 

Over the past two years, we’ve all had an opportunity to become more aware of both the positive and negative effects of travel. We want to travel more sustainably — the question is, how?

WEBINAR REMINDER: SEPTEMBER 9, 2 PM ET  

Sustainable Travel with Anna Pollock, 2022 JourneyWoman Award winner

Anna Pollock, our 2022 JourneyWoman Award winner, recognized as a pioneer in regenerative travel, to help us learn and adopt a more conscious and responsible mindset when we travel.  She’ll be introduced by Norie Quintos, Contributing Editor to National Geographic Travel Media and former Executive Editor of National Geographic Traveler.

Following Anna’s remarks, we’ll have a panel discussion with Anna, Norie and Shannon Guihan, Chief Sustainability Officer, The Travel Corporation and Head of the TreadRight Foundation. I encourage you to read The Travel Corporation's Sustainability Strategy to understand the breadth and impact of Shannon's work. 

Thanks to our sponsor, Trafalgar Tours, this is a free event. When you register, we invite you to make a donation to the Adventure Travel Conservation Fund, which funds local projects engaged in the conservation of unique natural and cultural resources of adventure travel destinations.

Want to experience a more sustainable way to travel?

On September 25, I'm off to learn with Celine Cousteau on a sustainable travel experience along the Croatian Coast with Insight Vacations. On this 10-day women-only tour, I'll be meeting women entrepreneurs, learning about fish conservation and hiking in the wilderness. If you’ve been thinking about getting back out there, this is a perfect opportunity – Insight will look after all the details for you so that you can have a stress-free holiday. I'd love if it you join me - there's still space available, and a discount for JourneyWoman readers. 

Take care — I can't wait to see you in person or virtually!
