She pulls back the curtain on the fears, challenges, and “baptism by fire” moments that come with managing a group contract for the first time—and how she turned that experience into a profitable and confidence-building milestone.

    • What to expect when working with Sandals group contracts
    • Lessons learned from real challenges and how to overcome them
