Dear Permission to be Powerful Reader,
Big announcement.
I have partnered with brands like Forbes, People, SELF, and many others.
To bring you the largest private collection of vacation giveaways on Earth.
I call it The Vacation Vault.
I’m offering you a rollercoaster ride of fun in your inbox every single week.
And yet, I won’t be charging you your left kidney for the privilege.
The travel industry is rigged.
Instead of paying an arm and a leg for one trip…
You try this radical new approach to travel.
You enter many giveaways.
Dozens or even hundreds over time.
And let probability do the work.
Think of it like The Price Is Right for your email inbox.
I feed you a steady supply of vacation giveaways.
You enter to win.
More entries = more chances to win.
This is a numbers game.
When you enter a vacation giveaway, your odds are roughly one in 25,000.
Basically impossible.
But your probability increases every time you enter another one.
The Vault is how you tilt the odds in your favor.
In January, the Vacation Vault saw giveaways to:
Iceland
Costa Rica
Puerto Rico
Cancun
We just opened a new Turks and Caicos getaway,
plus a 3-day food escape in Charleston, SC.
But that’s just the start…
Bali
Texas
Santa Fe
Mexico
All still open.
Barely.
They’re closing any day now.
Coming live this month (February 2026):
Miami Beach
Spain
Nashville
and more.
Even more to follow.
Malibu
Cancun
Cozumel
We’re also hosting a major wellness spa giveaway this month
in partnership with SELF magazine.
Do people really win?
I can’t promise you will win.
That part’s completely out of my control.
It’s up to the judges to decide.
They have their own criteria.
But make no mistake:
People really do win.
Your chances are just as good as any.
IF you actually take the time to enter.
Here’s one example:
This is a fun way to plot your next escape.
To give yourself something unreal to look forward to.
To spoil yourself.
Even if you’re broke.
Beat a rigged travel industry.
Stop letting them rip you off blindly.
And maybe get bragging rights for life.
Are you in?
Roll the dice.
You might end up somewhere far away
with someone you love.
Far from your boss.
Your inbox.
Your responsibilities.
Even when life sucks…
And the world feels unhinged.
