Today I’m sharing the apps and tools I think you are absolutely sleeping on if you want to grow your business, save time, and stop doing everything manually.

I’m a big believer that the right tools can make running your business so much easier and there are a few that I use constantly that I think more travel creators need to know about.

In this episode, I’m breaking down my favorite creator tools, business systems, AI tools, and apps for everything from project management and pitching to email marketing, time tracking, content creation, and staying organized.

We’re talking about:

• Why Asana is one of my non-negotiable business systems and how I use the desktop app to quickly capture tasks
• Why I use Instagram on desktop instead of my phone to avoid the doom-scroll trap
• How I use LinkedIn as a more intentional engagement activity
• The dictation tool I’m OBSESSED with and why WhisperFlow is a game changer for writing emails and YouTube scripts.
