Who is Travel Bug Tonic?
Hi, I’m Tracy!
…a fellow traveller helping women reconnect with what makes them feel most alive.
Travel, to me, has never been about collecting stamps or checking boxes. It’s about remembering who we are when the familiar falls away.
After crossing the half-century mark, I realized adventure isn’t a luxury; it’s a lifeline. Each journey, whether across the world or just down the street, shakes off what’s stale and awakens possibility.
My background is in wellbeing. I spent two decades in that field before travel coaching found me. What I bring to this work is that foundation, plus my own wanderings, the wrong turns, the unexpected moments, the things that quietly rearranged me. My approach blends reflection, science, and story because growth doesn't happen in theory. It happens through experience.
And it begins with a simple truth: awe isn't somewhere else. It's here, waiting to be noticed.
Sound Familiar?
You’re ready for travel that means something.
Not a checklist. Not an Instagram moment. Something that actually shifts how you see yourself and the world.
You want joy, not just the highlight reel.
Maybe you know exactly why you travel. Maybe you're still figuring it out. Either way, you're ready for something more intentional, more joyful, and more you.
You’d love a thinking partner for the journey.
Someone who blends real research with real experience and walks alongside you rather than handing you an itinerary.
