Ep 255 AI as Your Newest Team Member

AI is everywhere right now, but the question on most travel advisor’s minds is how to actually use it in a way that feels practical, personal, and aligned with client expectations. In this episode, Brianna sits down with Dayo Esho, co-founder of TravelJoy, to explore how AI is quietly transforming advisor workflows without replacing the human-first service clients value. Dayo shares how his background in engineering, entrepreneurship, and growing up inside his mother’s travel agency shaped the lens through which he builds advisor-focused technology. Together, they dig into advisor adoption trends, creative ways AI is being used behind the scenes, and the mindset that leads to confident, intentional implementation. This conversation offers a grounded look at what it truly means for AI to act as your newest and most supportive team member inside your travel business.
