💸 Cyber Monday: Save $200 on Lou's Momentum Weekend Retreat

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello, my friend! I hope you’re having a wonderful holiday season (how is it December already?!?!) and that your heart is as full as mine after an amazing Momentum Weekend Workshop at Walt Disney World, just a few weeks ago. While this event is geared toward creators, entrepreneurs, and dreamers building something of their own, one thing became very clear again this year: when people come together with intention, encouragement, and purpose… magical...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello, my friend! It's been way too long... and that's all my fault. No excuses, just life... and it's all good stuff. And it's also all thanks to you. I've been going nonstop since... well... for months. And that's a good thing! I'm blessed to be busy! Exhaustion is a privilege! Life and travel got a little busier than expected, but I’ve been excited to get this out to you, because there has been so much happening. New Podcast Episodes I’ve Loved...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello, my friend! I hope you're doing well (really, I do!) I’ll start with a little confession... I missed a week or so since my last newsletter and even a couple of weeks without a new podcast episode before this week's show, and I REALLY do NOT like that that... at all. Truly. I always feel guilty when I miss a week (or even a couple of days) because I never want to let you down or break our rhythm together. Life, travel, work, events, speaking,...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Bonjour, my friend! That's the extent of my French for the most part... although I have become quite proficient in ordering baguettes, croque monsieurs, and French Fries. We're on our WDW Radio Adventures by Disney river cruise on the Seine, and to say it's been magical (and delicious) is an understatement! I've really come to love river cruising, and if you missed this one, don't worry... we're working on another one - I'm literally working with Beci...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences ✨ 7 Days Only – Save 40% on Select Disney Cruises! Hello, my friend! I am on a WDW Radio Radio Adventures by Disney river cruise on the Seine with Beci from Mouse Fan Travel as we speak... I mean, as I write (follow along on my Instagram posts and stories!)... and she just gave me some amazing news I had to share with you right away!

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello, my friend! 👋 We are almost a month away from the Momentum Weekend Workshop (breathe, Lou!), a 1 room, 50-person, 4-day event at Walt Disney World for solopreneurs and creators. Since 2016, this event has helped attendees monetize, market, grow their brands... and ultimately turn their passions into profit. One question I get all of the time is: "What makes this event different from other conferences?" My answer? Well it's two-fold. First and...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello, my friend. I hope you are doing well and having a great week so far! First, I want to start with an apology… and a thank you. I’ve missed sending you the newsletter these past couple of weeks. No excuses, but I have a reason... I’ve been happily juggling a lot of exciting (and all good!) things, including travel, speaking, projects, and of course, the show. But I never take for granted that you give me the opportunity to do what I love, and that...
