Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're waking up with Morning.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I have a major announcement and I'm so excited to
share it with you, in hopes that you'll get something
out of it and that you can share in this
excitement as well.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
I've brought my friend Michelle in Good Morning.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
You've heard her voice on the show before, and I'll
introduce you to her in a hot second. But Michelle,
I am going on my very first solo vacation.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Your yay, Oh.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
My gosh, I'm so excited to hear. This is the
best news I've heard probably all year. I'm so nervous
and like eagerly and excited. And let me explain this
to why.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Okay, So, the reason why Michelle is on the show,
there's a really good chance that you're familiar with her
voice because she's our show's travel expert. And if you
didn't know this, she runs her own travel company and she.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Helps book solo travel.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
And you did three months in Europe by yourself.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
I did so. My my one week, my one week,
I don't know. I don't know if that equates to
your three months.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
But yes, I'm very excited to announce that I'm going
on my first solo.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Trip He's going to be so good for you.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
I'm so excited and even one week, don't even compare
that to three months.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
This is huge. It's gonna be so amazing for you.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Thank you now if you followed along on my social
at the tiff two.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
F's Potter like the Wizard.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
I've really leaned into visibly representing a lifestyle that I've
been living for a long time, which is solo in
the city and solo and cincy. Even when I was
in a relationship, sometimes you can be solo and not single.
I would say that a lot when the finance guy
lived in Boston still and I lived here, I would
still end up doing things a lot on my own.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
And as of recent I've started.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Really leaning into promoting that and having more conversation on
social about how to do things by yourself and what
it really means. And I feel like I'm getting to
this point now where i want to take it to
the next level. And so I'm going to do a
wedding trip in Ireland love that first for a week
(02:14):
in June, and I'm going by myself, and I figured
this would be the perfect place to like kind of
parley if I'm going over to Europe by myself. Why
don't I do it when I will at least know
someone there for two or three days of the eight
or nine days that I'm there. So I'm going for
a wedding. But I had started thinking, you know, do
I want to bring a plus one to this? Do
I want to go by myself? Like I just I
(02:37):
got to the point where I was trying to figure
out if I wanted to bring like a girlfriend or
a best friend to this wedding or wait a minute,
is this the time to really try going by myself?
Speaker 5 (02:47):
Absolutely, I'm nervous, I'm sure, and it's totally totally fine
to be that nervous and also really excited.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Most of what I hear out of you is it excitement.
And that's the thing, right Like you are taking a
huge leap right now. And I especially love Ireland for you.
This is so fortuitous for you because the Irish are
known for the gift of gab.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
And girl, you got you have got it a gal
get that's right. Absolutely, So here's how this is gonna work.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
We're calling it Travel Tuesday with Tiff and of course
my gal Michelle here every Tuesday on the show you're
gonna hear different travel tips for you to book your
own travel. Maybe I can inspire at least one person
in Cincinnati to do the same. So every week on
social media and on our show's podcast and on the air,
(03:42):
you'll be involved in helping me plan, execute, and go
through with my very first solo trip to Europe.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
I'm here for it.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
What I want to ask you this morning, Michelle, how
would someone in Cincinnati know that they are ready to
do a solo trip on their own?
Speaker 1 (03:58):
What's what's that like?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
I think the biggest thing that is really going to
help you know is how comfortable do you really feel
being alone? I know, especially for you, I see all
the work that you're putting in going to the movies,
to dinner, And that's really where it starts. Solo travel
really shouldn't and doesn't start with three months on your
own in Europe on some fomo inducing, instagram worthy vacation.
(04:25):
It starts you start that work just on your own
in your own city, with a staycation, dinner, movie, whatever
it may be. And if you come out of those
experience and say, Wow, that wasn't as bad as I thought,
or I actually really enjoyed that I'm gonna go see
a movie again by myself next Sunday. I think once
you get to that point, you are ready for that
next step exactly.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Like you said, that is the key for anyone indicator
to know. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I appreciate you recognizing that because I have been putting
in the work, yes, as in the last couple of months,
even of trying new things on my own, yes, And
that's when I started to like test the waters exactly.
So I think the final straw for me was I
just did this staycation mostly in Sinciye, where I spent
(05:13):
a lot of it on my own, and I think
that's how I personally knew that I was ready to
try this trip on my own, exactly.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
I mean, it really is about setting that right foundation
and trying a variety of things too. It's not like
you only went to a movie where you don't have
to engage with anyone or interact.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
You went to restaurants.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
And you've done, you know, a variety of things, and
that's really what it comes down to, is putting yourself
outside of your comfort zone, even just for a little
bit of time. It's almost like diping your tone in
the water. See how that went, take a step back,
reflect Are you ready to.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Do it again? Maybe? Maybe not? And that's okay.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Well, Michelle Walters she's gonna come on, like I said,
every Tuesday for to travel Tuesday with Tiff to help
get this thing off the ground. And if you're wondering
when I'm going, it's the second weekend or the second
or third week in June. So for the next six
weeks we'll hear travel tips for this summer from Michelle.
You can always connect with her at She's the Jane
(06:12):

what I'm gonna ask from you right now? Cincinnati five
win three seven four nine one seven one.
Speaker 1 (06:25):

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Some help and guidance and just general gift of gab
and insight from you. Have you gone on a solo
trip somewhere? Talk about it? Are the things that I'm missing?
Are there things I need to know? I'm like I said,
I'm feeling all of these emotions. Excitement is the big one,
Nervous is the other, and I'm really leaning on you
to share some of these tips. So, if you've gone
