The travel industry often falls short in providing accommodating environments for all bodies, leading to missed opportunities and uncomfortable experiences.

Influencer marketing is key to engaging the plus-size market, as people who have had negative experiences look to influencers they trust for advice.

Kara Richardson Whitely creates exciting content that highlights spaces and activities that are accessible to people in all bodies, and inspires audiences to move mountains in their own lives.

  • Kara's presentation at our Women in Retail: On the Road event in New York City in October was a highlight of the event. Kara's content about the plus-size market and her experience as a plus-size adventurer, influencer and CEO of The Gorgeous Agency was relevant, actionable, and timely. In addition, she delivered it in a fun, fresh, and authentic style that kept the audience engaged and entertained. We loved working with Kara and hope to work with her again!
