On this unmissable episode of Advisor Highlight, we have a conversation with Teneka Hughey who is the founder of Green Book Vacations. She was a government travel agent for over 20 years before launching her own travel agency for leisure travel in 2019. Listen in to learn the story of how she chose the name for her agency and what she has planned for the future of her business. It was a joy to speak to Teneka, and we know you'll love the conversation as much as we did!
