New to points and miles? You’re in the right place.
If the concept of paying for travel with credit card points feels confusing or overwhelming, you’re not alone. I started exactly where you are—wanting to travel more with my family, hearing rumblings of this “points thing,” but having absolutely no idea where to begin. Here you’ll find simple, step-by-step advice to help you earn points, book trips, and travel more without increasing your budget or stressing over complicated strategies.
You don’t need a six-figure income to take your kids on a dream vacation.
Hi! I’m Kim, and I know exactly what it’s like to look at a travel goal and think, ‘Maybe next year.’
After 15 years working for a non-profit, I mastered the art of stretching a dollar. And along the way I learned how to use points and miles to make family travel possible on a modest salary. Now, I’ve turned those secrets into your shortcut. I help parents unlock free flights and luxury stays so you can stretch your travel budget further than you ever thought possible.

Nope—when done correctly, it can actually boost your credit score. I teach responsible strategies so you can earn rewards without debt, stress, or spreadsheets that make you want to pull your hair out.
