Independent Travel Design & Coordination

For my fellow neurospicy explorers.

As a woman with a late diagnosis of AuADHD, I suddenly realized why, despite loving travel and the dopamine it brought me, it was often a struggle. I frequently wound up burnt out and depleted by the very thing I craved.

My lived and professional experience gives me the depth to understand that travel isn’t just about the destination for neurodivergent women. It is about managing our spoons and honouring our own capacity and I have spent the last several years helping others navigate these exact challenges.

As a neurodivergent woman and travel lover, I also see a huge gap in this specialised alternative to standard travel advice. My goal is to support the reality of navigating the challenges of travelling with a neurospicy soul, ensuring an empowering journey rather than a sensory assault. You get to avoid this by learning through my past mistakes!

Through Independent Travel Design & Coordination, we work together as equals to design a slow, intentional journey that protects your peace, respects your limits, and lets you explore entirely on your own terms.

How we work together

This is a true peer partnership where we look at the big picture and the quiet details of your upcoming trip before you leave home. We sit down and look at how to structure your travel so you can actually enjoy it, not just survive it.

• Research & Recommendations: We dive into the details together to research and recommend specific tours, experiences, and accommodation that genuinely align with your personal goals, sensory needs, and pacing.
• Pacing & Energy Mapping: We look at your itinerary through a sensory lens, intentionally weaving in quiet days, buffer zones, and decompression spaces so you never feel pushed to your limit.
• Simplifying the Friction Points: We look closely at transitions, transfers, and routines, stripping away the unnecessary stress points that drain your battery before the day even begins.

What you receive

To give you the space to process and implementation tools that actually work, our time together is broken into collaborative consultation and independent, behind-the-scenes strategy design. You will receive:

• Your Personalised Travel Strategy Document: A clean, easy-to-read layout containing our deep-dive research, energy-mapping notes, and vetted provider recommendations.
• Your Interactive Travel Design Spreadsheet: A fully customisable, changeable spreadsheet tool you can use to track your bookings, adjust your timeline, and manage your journey on your own terms.

Where my role begins and ends

• What we do together: We share space to brainstorm, problem-solve, research aligned options, map out sensory-safe routes, and coordinate a beautiful strategy that empowers you to travel with confidence.
• What I leave to you: To keep your independence front and centre, I don’t act as a booking agent. This means I don't make live reservations, buy tickets, or handle third-party logistics. You remain the director of your own bookings, I’m just here to help you design the perfect map to get you there.

Links & Transparency

Some of the recommendations I share may be trusted affiliate links based on my own personal use and research. If you choose to book through them, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Because these accommodations and operators are independent third parties, your contract is directly with them. I am here to help you vet the best options, but I cannot accept liability for their individual services, bookings, or operational changes.

Payment & NDIS Information

Packages are paid upfront, with Afterpay available at checkout to support accessibility.

If you use the NDIS, this service may be reimbursed by your plan manager under the Peer Mentoring line item if it aligns with your goals. Your receipt will be fully NDIS-compliant.

Please check with your plan manager prior to booking, as all services are strictly non-refundable.
