What if the “quiet season” wasn’t your biggest booking struggle, but your greatest business opportunity?

In this eye-opening episode, Sarah Riley is joined by Ged Brown from Low Season Traveller to explore a powerful shift happening in tourism that few are talking about, but that savvy glamping business owners, retreat leaders, and unique holiday rental hosts need to hear.

Together, they unpack:

• Why rising global travel is creating chaos during peak seasons, and what that means for boutique hosts

• How low season travel benefits everyone... your guests, your profits, and the planet

• Proven strategies to increase bookings, impact, and guest satisfaction during slower months

• Ged’s journey creating the world’s first platform for off-peak travel, and why it’s changing the game

If you’re ready to stop chasing high-season chaos and start designing a glamping or short-stay business that thrives all year round, this conversation will shift your perspective and ignite new ideas.

Plus, you’ll learn how to build a brand that values connection over crowds, and sustainability over saturation, so your unique hospitality experience stays in demand no matter the season.

What if the key to feeling more grounded, more aligned, and more inspired in both life and business… was to think ten years ahead?

It might sound like a lifetime away, especially when you’re juggling guests, chasing algorithms, and trying to stay afloat in a world that never slows down. But in this powerful episode, I’m joined by corporate strategist and creative soul Tricia Duffy, the voice behind In 10 Years Time, to explore how a simple mindset shift can change everything.

This isn’t about productivity hacks or rigid goal-setting. It’s about legacy. About designing a business... and a life... that fits who you’re becoming.

Tricia shares her deceptively simple exercise that’s profoundly moving and refreshingly practical. It will help you pause, zoom out, and start creating from a place of calm, not chaos.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, caught in short-term thinking, or just need a reminder that you are in charge of your direction... this episode is for you.

Grab a pen, and let’s map your future together.

Tricia Duffy - How To Live A Creative Life

https://www.intenyearstime.com/

This is a must-listen for anyone dreaming of launching a stunning geodesic dome retreat on their land. Because here’s the truth: what you don’t know about buying domes could cost you thousands.

I’m joined by the brilliant Ronnie Smith of Glamping Revolution, one of Europe’s most trusted manufacturers of luxury glamping structures. Based in sunny Portugal, Ronnie and her team don’t just design show-stopping domes (including Europe’s largest suspended dome structure), they also work from inside them. So when it comes to real-world insights, she’s the real deal.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Why geodesic domes are guest magnets (and how to use that to your advantage)
• The biggest mistakes people make when buying their first dome, and how to avoid them
• What to look for in quality materials and an ethical supplier
• The secret to choosing a dome that lasts 15 years, not just one season

We also explore the ancient, almost mystical sacred symmetry of the dome, and ask whether its timeless design could be the secret behind why guests are so drawn to it.

If you're serious about glamping and want to make smart, sustainable choices from the start, this episode will leave you inspired, informed, and ready to build something unforgettable.

Let’s talk domes... the right way.
