β Your Guide to Disney Parks & ExperiencesHello, my friend! I hope you're doing well and ready for another exciting week! Here in Florida, we're getting ready to welcome Hurricane Helene πͺοΈ this weekend... (just in time for my Momentum Weekend Workshop). First and foremost, thank you for allowing me to chase my dreams and build this incredible community, where we all come together as family, united by a shared passion. Your support, friendship, and positivity mean everything to me. π§ And, speaking of chasing dreams, I had the privilege of sitting down with Bob Weis, former President of Walt Disney Imagineering, at D23. We explored his incredible career, the magic behind Disney parks, and his new book, Dream Chasing. Bob shared stories from his early days at Disneyland to leading projects like Shanghai Disneyland, offering insights into leadership, creativity, and chasing dreams. Whether you love Disney history or need some inspiration, this episode is a must-listen. π Listen here, on Apple Podcasts or Spotify and π order Bob's book from Amazon. And what about YOU? If you could have any role at a Disney park, what would it be, and why? Share your dream job in the Clubhouse or call the voicemail at 407-900-9391 (WDW1) β Iβd love to hear it! π Speaking of dreams coming true... My favorite foodie event of the year, the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic is BACK November 15-16! It's more than just a food festival itβs an immersive culinary experience that combines UNLIMITED top-tier cuisine, world-class beverages, seminars, live entertainment, and a magical setting.
