Casey Hanisko is one of those women in the travel industry who I genuinely look up to - the kind of leader who makes you think, "I want to be like her when I grow up."We're diving into something that's keeping a lot of us up at night - how do you keep exploring the world when it feels like everything is falling apart? Casey has spent over 25 years building and leading teams in the adventure travel industry, and she's got the perspective we all need right now.I really wanted to pick Casey's brain about this: How do we navigate our fears about traveling when the news cycle feels relentless and the world seems more uncertain than ever? We're talking about the difference between smart risk management and letting fear hijack your passport, plus some seriously questionable decision-making that led to the best travel stories ever.Upcoming Trips Mentioned:Cuba: Dec 27, 2025 - Jan 3, 2026India: Feb 25 - March 7, 2026 Kenya: March 25 - April 4, 2026Morocco: April 10 - April 19, 2026Links & Resources (Casey)Learn more about Casey: caseyhanisko.comLinkedIn: @caseyhaniskoLeading Naturally newsletterRISE Travel Institute Adventure Travel Conservation FundCasey's Blog Post: Scared to Travel Right Now?Links & Resources (Laura)Follow my personal IG: @lolawhiskeyFollow my business IG: @lauraericsongrouptripsFollow our podcast: @type2travelpodcastLearn more about upcoming trips: lauraericson.comCheck out our podcast page: lauraericson.com/podcastJoin my Facebook group: @lolalovestravelThanks for being here!
