Our latest Podcast Episode

Real Talk for Event Pros Who Do It All—And Still Show Up #fit4events™. Sponsored and Produced by Tree-Fan Events Production.
In this CEO edition of the Events Demystified Podcast, host interviews Debbie Garcia, CEO of Virsitour, about how the pandemic wiped out her commission-based planning income and pushed her to build the tool she needed for virtual sourcing.
Debbie shares her winding path from media production in New York and Nashville into events, the lack of systems and “tribal knowledge” in planning, and how Virsitour centralizes visuals and sourcing for hotels, venues, services, and destinations so planners can make informed decisions before sending RFPs.
She discusses bootstrapping the platform while running an agency, the costs of outdated processes in time, money, and missed life moments, and leadership lessons on resilience, boundaries, burnout, trusting experts, and building personal routines like meditation, calendar discipline, and focusing on top priorities.
