Carlye Wisel is an energetic reporter who went to Walt Disney World on a whim and basically never left. Now a theme park journalist and travel expert, she attends strangers’ Disney weddings, flies around the world riding roller coasters and does her damndest to help families with their Walt Disney World planning. When she’s not indulging in her main food group — theme park popcorn — she can be found yelling into her phone about everything from Cats to cold foam on her Instagram stories.

 

In this episode we talk about:

  • meeting at Soul Camp
  • the path she took to becoming a journalist
  • freelancing as much as she could while also working to work full time because she loved writing so much
  • quitting her full time job with the hopes to make it full time as a freelance journalist 
  • how hard writing actually is, even for professional writers 
  • pitching herself to write about all the craziest boutique fitness classes in NYC
  • how her bachorlette party ended up leading to her new career as a theme park journalist
  • surviving and enjoying freelancing
  • the difference it makes in switching out the word should for want
  • the pressure of vacation
  • how expectations create dissapointments
  • the stresses of Disney reporting
  • navigating being a full time freelancer
  • becoming a #foamfluencer
  • Which keychain she chose from my line and why!
