About The Guest:

Christine MacMillan is your partner for maximizing travel and making memories. Having spent more than 20 years coordinating global travel during her career as a business consultant, Christine became an official travel advisor in 2020. Today, she’s a multi-certified, time-saving travel planner for fellow working moms who dream of special family trips but never have the bandwidth to plan them. Specializing in stellar land and cruise vacations in the US, Mexico, and Europe, Christine loves personalizing and optimizing every trip - making it possible for more moms to enjoy unforgettable adventures, self-care, and even the planning process itself: from sharing ideas to unpacking suitcases.

When she’s not planning seamless travel for clients all over the world, Christine’s on the go herself – dipping her toes into the white sandy beaches of Cabo San Lucas, walking her terrier, Maya, with her husband, Jon, and son, Lucas, or playing tourist in her own backyard: the San Francisco Bay area.
