Episode Description

Are you making the most of your points and miles this year? Yes? No? Not sure? My process for doing a mid-year points check-in to ensure you’re on track to meet your travel goals might just help you out.

Doing a points check-in is the best possible way to recalibrate and course correct while there’s still plenty of time left in the year. This means getting clear on every aspect of your points world, including your current points balances, credit card welcome bonuses, loyalty program status, and estimating your upcoming spend.

Even if you don’t have a points plan in place yet, the strategy I share today will help you get ready for taking a more intentional approach to reaching your points goals in the future!
