Wonderland on Points | Credit Card Rewards & Budget Travel 175. Money, Mindset, and Making Slow Travel Possible with Certified Financial Educator Suzy May
In this episode of Wonderland on Points, we’re joined by @SuzyMay.Wander, financial coach, worldschooling mom, and host of the Wander Worldschool podcast, for an inspiring and practical conversation about designing a life that makes meaningful travel possible. Suzy shares how her family transitioned from dreaming about extended travel to living it out, and she walks us through her approachable six-step framework for planning long-term or slow travel with intention. We talk about clarifying your “why,” building a realistic financial plan, understanding what monthly costs might look like in different destinations, and using tools like points, budgeting strategies, and creative income to close financial gaps. We also dive into the mindset side of money, why so many families underestimate what’s possible, and how getting honest with your numbers can open the door to travel that truly aligns with your values. If you’ve ever wondered whether extended travel or a slower, more intentional travel lifestyle could work for your family, this episode offers guidance, encouragement, and a practical starting point.
