Podcast Summary: Kasie Provencal

I met Kasie in Punta Cana. She showed me kindness. We traveled together out of the country and again, she showed me kindness. She literally almost "held my hand" to teach me the most efficient ways to travel during our journey. She "does" what "Most People Don't". There was no benefit to her being nice to me. There were not any expectations. She simply wanted to help make my experience better.

In this episode of Most People Don’t... But You Do, Bart Berkey interviews Kasie Provencal, owner of Pro Tour and Cruises, a travel company specializing in group travel experiences.

We discuss her journey into the travel industry, the power of creating lasting memories, the importance of removing blinders in life, and how kindness fuels her mission. They also introduce the upcoming Kindness Cruise, an initiative born from Kasie's passion for bringing people together in meaningful ways.

• She found her calling in travel after realizing the power of designing and facilitating unforgettable experiences.
• Memories last far longer than material possessions—investing in experiences fosters deeper connections and personal growth.

• Her career took off because she refused to let great ideas sit on the shelf.

• She recognized gaps in customer service in the travel industry and built her business by addressing those needs.
• She took the initiative to turn the Kindness Conference into a year-round effort, leading to the Kindness Cruise.

THE KINDNESS CRUISE

• The Kindness Cruise will be an eight-day experience on the brand-new Norwegian Aqua, sailing in December.
• It’s designed for people who want to recharge, immerse themselves in kindness-focused discussions, and connect with like-minded individuals.
• Activities include group dinners, guided workshops, and opportunities to reflect on and amplify kindness in life and business.

💡 Why It Matters: This is an opportunity for people to step away from their routines, find their “awe” moments, and return home with a renewed sense of purpose and connection.

Summary:

In this engaging and forward-thinking conversation, Bart Berkey sits down with Adam Mogelonsky, a hospitality consultant specializing in luxury hotels. Adam shares his deep knowledge on future trends, wellness, and how hotels must evolve to meet the demands of new generations. They discuss how hotels can offer more than just premium service—they must anticipate trends, integrate holistic wellness, and rethink traditional offerings to stay ahead of the curve.

Adam also reveals how demographic shifts, changing consumer expectations, and longevity science will reshape luxury hospitality. The conversation touches on everything from intermittent fasting and biohacking to regenerative tourism and how hotels can create "constellations of trends" rather than linear improvements.

1. All Organizations Must Think 5-10 Years Ahead

   • Most luxury hotels already know service and hospitality inside out. What they need is future-proofing—insights into trends that will shape guest preferences in the next decade.
   • Younger generations prioritize health, sustainability, and personalization, which will push hotels to evolve beyond traditional offerings like extravagant breakfasts and standard wellness amenities.

2. Wellness is More Than Just Yoga Mats & Filtered Water

   • True wellness experiences go beyond token gestures like yoga mats and infused water. They need scientific backing, innovation, and personalization.
   • Future wellness offerings may include biometric tracking, AI-driven fitness guidance, structured water, longevity-focused cuisine, and in-room recovery technology.

3. The Future is Experience-Driven & Science-Backed

   • Travelers are looking for transformative experiences, not just a place to stay. Hotels that integrate holistic health, regenerative tourism, and personalized well-being solutions will lead the industry.
   • A great example is Babylonstoren in South Africa, a resort that offers immersive culinary farming, regenerative wellness, and hands-on guest experiences—a model for the future of hospitality.

Adam challenges us to think critically: Are we designing hotels (and our own lives) for today, or for the future? The answer will determine which brands, experiences, and people thrive in the years ahead.
