Complete Your Member Profile

Your public profile lives on the TTC Member Directory at transformational.travel. Other members, practitioners, and partners use the directory to find and connect with you. The richer your profile, the more your work and offerings reach the people who need them.

What Is Included In Your Profile

A complete profile contributes to the public benefit of the community. The more openly you share what you bring, what you are working on, and what you are learning, the more the field grows.

  • Share what brought you to this community and what you hope to contribute. Naming both the giving and the gaining sets the tone for genuine peer exchange. Other members will know how to support you and where you might support them.

  • If you have completed a TTC program, share the work you created. Your capstone is field knowledge in action: a case study other practitioners can learn from. Link to a write-up, a video walkthrough, or a downloadable summary so the community can see what transformative practice looks like in your context.

  • Your profile is a place to share white papers, case studies, articles, frameworks, podcasts, and other resources that have shaped your thinking or that you have authored. These contributions are public and discoverable by other members, partners, and visitors to the directory. Sharing resources is one of the most direct ways members advance the field and serve the broader community.

  • Name the sectors you work across (The Place, The Space, The Journey, The Practice) and the methodologies, frameworks, or focus areas you specialize in. This helps members and partners find you when they are looking for specific expertise.

  • City and country anchor you in the network and make it easier for members in your region to find you. If you work across multiple regions or remotely, share that too.

  • LinkedIn, your website, and any other ways you welcome connection. Members and partners reach out directly. The directory is a doorway to relationship, not a one-way listing.

Submit Your Profile Form

  • Your member profile and the full Member Directory live under Community on transformational.travel. Upcoming programs, sessions, and the full 2026 calendar live in the Educational Center on the same site. This Member Welcome page (where you are now) is your home base, with the current month's events, discount codes, frameworks, and ways to contribute back to the community organized in one place. Content from attended sessions will be emailed to all attendees post-session.

  • Resubmit the Member Profile form anytime your role, organization, location, or focus areas change, or when you have a new capstone, resource, or offering to share. If you need help with anything that does not fit in the form, email hero@transformational.travel.

  • No. TTC membership dues are not tax-deductible because TTC is a Washington State Social Purpose Corporation, not a nonprofit. The Transformational Travel Institute (TTI), our affiliated 501(c)(3) public charity, advances the public benefit of travel through field-building research, scholarships, and educational programs. Charitable contributions to TTI are separate from membership and may be tax-deductible. If you would like to support TTI's mission, email hero@transformational.travel and we will connect you with the right pathway.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Coffee + Connect, Foundations, Spark Talks, and other member gatherings are not recorded. The conversations are honored as private exchanges among those who showed up. Materials, frameworks, or follow-up notes from a specific session are shared directly with the members who attended. If you missed a session and want to know what came up, reach out to another member who was there or email hero@transformational.travel, and we will share what we can.

  • Word of mouth is how this community grows. Send your colleague to transformational.travel/community/membership for the public-facing information, or introduce them to Heather directly at hero@transformational.travel and she will walk them through what membership offers and answer their questions. If you want to make a warm introduction by email, we welcome it.

  • Yes. To cancel, log in to your account on transformational.travel, click Account, select Digital Products or Subscriptions, and click Cancel Subscription. TTC does not offer refunds on membership dues. When you cancel, you retain full access to gated content, member rates, and community gatherings through the end of your current billing cycle. After that date, your Member Directory profile moves to archived status and can be reactivated if you rejoin later. If you would rather cancel by email, write to hero@transformational.travel and we will handle it for you.
