You're standing in the school pickup line, scrolling through your phone, and a thought crosses your mind:
"There has to be more than this."
You love being there for your kids. You wouldn't trade those morning hugs or after-school snack chats for anything. But somewhere between the laundry pile and the grocery runs, you started wondering if maybe, just maybe, you could have something that's yours too.
Something that brings in extra income. Something that lights you up. Something that doesn't require you to choose between your family and your future.
Here's the good news: You absolutely can.
🌟 The Dream That Actually Works
Let's talk about what being a home-based travel advisor really looks like. Not the glossy Instagram version (though there's plenty of that!). The real, day-to-day, kids-are-asking-for-snacks-while-you're-on-the-computer version.
Because that's where you live. And that's exactly where this career thrives.
As a #WorkFromHome travel advisor, you get to help families plan magical vacations, Disney trips, beach getaways, European adventures, all from your kitchen table. Or the soccer field bleachers. Or the parking lot while waiting for dance class to end.
The beauty? You set your own hours. You decide when you work and when you're fully present with your family.
No boss breathing down your neck. No rigid 9-to-5 schedule that ignores the reality of raising kids. Just you, your laptop, and the freedom to build something meaningful on your own terms.

🕐 What Does a Typical Day Actually Look Like?
Let's paint a picture, because this might be closer to your life than you think.
7:00 AM – You wake up, get the kids fed and dressed, and drop them off at school. Normal mom stuff.
9:00 AM – With the house quiet, you sit down with your coffee and check emails. A client wants to add a character dining experience to their Disney trip. You send over the options.
10:30 AM – You hop on a quick training call to learn about a new cruise promotion. (Yes, you get to learn about amazing destinations as part of your job!)
12:00 PM – Lunch break. Maybe throw in a load of laundry. Real life doesn't pause, and that's okay.
2:30 PM – School pickup. You're there, on time, every single day.
3:00 PM – Homework help, snacks, the usual chaos.
7:30 PM – Once the kids are in bed, you spend an hour responding to inquiries and posting in your favorite travel Facebook group.
That's it. No guilt. No trade-offs. Just a flexible schedule that works around your life, not the other way around.
💪 You're Already More Qualified Than You Think
Here's something important: You don't need years of experience to do this.
If you've ever planned a family vacation, researched the best hotels, figured out how to navigate airport layovers with toddlers, or coordinated a trip for multiple family members, you already have skills that translate directly to this career.
Being a #Stayathomemom means you're a professional multitasker. You're organized. You're resourceful. You know how to solve problems on the fly and keep everyone happy (most of the time, anyway!).
Those "mom skills"? They're actually business skills in disguise.
And the travel knowledge? That comes with training and support. You don't have to figure this out alone.

🤝 The Support System That Makes All the Difference
This is where Regal Scenic Journeys comes in.
We know that starting something new can feel overwhelming, especially when you're already juggling so much. That's why we've built a team environment designed specifically to help you succeed without burning out.
When you join our team, you get:
- Comprehensive training that takes you from curious to confident
- Ongoing mentorship from advisors who've been exactly where you are
- Marketing tools and resources so you're not starting from scratch
- A supportive community of like-minded women who cheer each other on
Research shows that advisors with strong support systems and clear boundaries report higher quality of life, working around 38 hours per week while still taking nearly 30 vacation days a year. That's the kind of balance we believe in.
We're not about hustle culture or grinding until you collapse. We're about building something sustainable. Something that grows with your family, not in spite of it.
💰 Let's Talk About the Money
You're probably wondering: "Can I actually #EarnExtraMoney doing this?"
Yes. And here's why.
As a travel advisor, you earn commissions when you book travel for clients. The more you book, the more you earn. But here's the beautiful part, you don't need to work 60-hour weeks to make it happen.
Many of our advisors start part-time, earning extra income while still being fully present for their families. Some eventually grow their businesses into full-time careers. Others keep it as a flexible side hustle that funds family vacations (hello, travel perks!).
The choice is yours. That's the whole point.
And unlike many work-from-home opportunities, this isn't about selling products to your friends or recruiting people endlessly. It's about providing a real service that families genuinely need and appreciate.
You help people create memories. And you get paid for it. Pretty amazing, right?

🌈 This Is About More Than Money
Let's be honest for a second.
Being a stay-at-home mom is beautiful and hard and rewarding and exhausting, sometimes all in the same hour. And while you love your kids fiercely, it's okay to want something that reminds you of who you are outside of being "mom."
Becoming a travel advisor gives you:
- A sense of purpose beyond the daily routines
- Adult conversations about exciting destinations
- A creative outlet for your planning and organizing talents
- Financial contribution to your household
- Something to call your own
It's not about escaping your life. It's about enhancing it.
✨ Is This Really For You?
Maybe you're thinking: "This sounds great, but I'm not sure I can do it."
Let me ask you a few questions:
- Do you love travel and get excited helping others plan trips?
- Are you looking for flexibility that fits around your family's schedule?
- Do you want to earn extra income without sacrificing time with your kids?
- Are you coachable and willing to learn something new?
If you nodded along to any of those, this could be your next chapter.
You don't have to have it all figured out. You just have to be willing to take the first step.
