I spoke at Frequent Traveler University Dallas 2025 on "Finding Joy in Travel: Beyond Points, Toward Purpose."Travel isn’t just about points and perks—it’s about finding joy, connection, and courage along the way. In my FTU talk, “Finding Joy in Travel,” I explore how meaningful exploration can transform not only 6where we go, but who we become.

Talking with Tara Schuster is like opening a book where every page feels somehow meant for you. And in this case, it was literally true—I wanted to ask her about nearly every chapter of her powerful, honest, and often hilarious books: Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies and Glow in the F*cking Dark.

Every story she shares—whether it’s about healing from trauma, battling imposter syndrome or navigating messy relationships—feels like a lifeline. You’ll laugh, you’ll nod, you might cry, and you’ll definitely want to grab a pen and start journaling.

Hope you enjoy our interview!

Leading the Way: An Antarctic Expedition with Ryan McDevitt on Quark UltramarineWhen Ryan McDevitt first stepped aboard a Quark Expeditions voyage in 2017, it was as a guest looking for adventure. But somewhere between the icy waters, endless skies, and silent, snow-covered landscapes, something shifted. He was hooked—not just on Antarctica, but on expedition travel itself.What began as a personal journey quickly evolved into a professional path. After starting in guest services, Ryan worked across different ships and roles, steadily gaining experience in the field. He trained through Quark Academy—Quark’s training program which is now unique, land-based in Ushuaia, Argentina, where future guides learn the art of driving Zodiacs, leading landings, and managing safety in some of the world’s most extreme conditions. It’s a powerful part of what makes Quark’s team so strong. I loved sailing South of the Antarctic Circle Jan 7-19 2025 on Quark Ultramarine with Ryan as my expedition leader!

Quark Expeditions: Learning from Fabrice GenevoisI loved being onboard Quark Ultramarine Jan 7-19 2025 for the Southern Expedition Crossing the Antarctic Circle. One of the best parts of my ship experience were the incredible expert lectures. Fabrice taught us about the three types of penguins, their behavior and then was out in the colony sharing his knowledge with us during every landing.READ MORE: (WSGT article)See the penguins in my 60+ reels from my journey South of the Antarctic Circle: https://bit.ly/LNAntarctica Watch my Jet Set TV segment about Antarctica: https://youtu.be/KcyCAPJmel8
