**How do I travel 70+ times a year, raise two young kids, and still stay sane?** After more than a year away, I'm excited to kick off Season 4 of *Creating Superfans* with a behind-the-scenes look at one of the questions I get asked more than almost anything else. In this solo episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on life as a keynote speaker and sharing the travel hacks, productivity systems, and family routines that help me spend more than 70 trips a year on the road without sacrificing what matters most at home. From the duplicate-packing strategy that changed everything to the loyalty programs, credit card perks, and hotel hacks that make constant travel easier, I'll share practical tips you can start using right away. I'll also talk about the intentional systems my family has created to help my two young sons see my travel as an opportunity rather than a sacrifice. Whether you're a frequent traveler, an entrepreneur, or simply trying to balance a busy career with your personal life, I hope this episode gives you ideas to help you travel smarter and live more intentionally. **You'll learn:** - The packing system that saves me time and eliminates travel stress - How I maximize airline, hotel, and credit card rewards without overcomplicating the process - Simple travel hacks that make frequent trips more comfortable and efficient - The family rituals that help me stay connected while I'm on the road - Why I believe work-life balance isn't about doing everything at once—it's about being intentional with your time and attention \-------------------------------- **About Brittany** Brittany Hodak is an award-winning entrepreneur, author, and customer experience speaker who helps businesses turn customers into superfans.

Over the past year and a half while I've been out traveling and speaking to audiences around the country, one of the questions [laughs] I've gotten most often is, "When are you going to bring your podcast back?" And the answer is I wanted to bring it back before now, but life has just been so crazy and chaotic, uh, that I didn't have time to record the episodes that I wanted to record and spend time with people that I wanted to interview, so I am thrilled to bring it back.
