Quando a aposentadoria vira um novo começo (Denise Silva) | SucessoCast #19

This episode is about new beginnings, knowledge, and the courage to build a new story when a stage of life comes to an end. Denise Silva shows that retirement doesn't have to mean stopping. It can be the beginning of a new phase, as long as there is a willingness to learn, prepare, and transform knowledge into opportunity. In this episode, Daise Ferreira welcomes Denise Silva, who has built a career spanning more than two decades in public service. In 1994, she joined the Civil Police as a clerk and, two years later, passed the exam for Forensic Expert, a profession she practiced for many years in Uberlândia. She also worked as a traffic examiner in Araguari and, in 2009, managed to return to Barbacena, where she continued working as a forensic expert and examiner. But, with two years left until retirement, Denise began to think about what would come next. Instead of waiting for retirement to decide on her next step, she began to study intensely about miles, points, and travel, taking courses and mentoring programs for two years. After retiring, she transformed that knowledge into a new business. Today, six years later, she leads Alquimia Tour, a travel agency that works with tourism, national and international travel, accommodation, and customized packages. In addition, she works as a miles consultant, helping people better understand the points generated by their daily expenses and use them more strategically. In this conversation, we discuss a world that many people still know little about. Miles don't have to be just a credit card benefit, and accumulating points without a strategy can mean missing opportunities. Denise explains how a miles consultant works, what the most common mistakes are, and why knowledge makes a difference when transforming everyday expenses into travel possibilities. We also talk about behavior, planning, and the importance of not depending solely on banks, credit cards, and airlines to understand how to use what is already being generated by one's own spending. In this episode you will learn: ✔️ What a miles consultant is in practice and who it can be useful for. ✔️ Why miles and points need to be viewed strategically and not just as a credit card perk. ✔️ What are the most common mistakes people make when accumulating points and how to avoid wasting them. ✔️ How everyday expenses can generate points and travel opportunities without increasing consumption or going into debt. ✔️ The difference between simply accumulating miles and building a strategy to use them. ✔️ Why letting points expire or making a redemption without planning can mean losing money. ✔️ How to start understanding this world even without a sophisticated credit card or spending large amounts. ✔️ And, most importantly, how knowledge can transform what many people overlook into new possibilities. More than a conversation about miles and travel, this episode is about preparation, entrepreneurial behavior, and the courage to start over. Denise prepared herself before retiring, found a new field of work, and transformed what began as a study into a new profession. A story that makes us think about how many opportunities can exist when we decide to learn something new even before we need it. 🎙️ Host: Daise Ferreira Consultant, mentor, and speaker in Leadership, Human Development, Communication, and Behavioral Management. ✈️ Guest: Denise Silva Entrepreneur, miles and travel consultant, and founder of Alquimia Tour. 📲 Daise Ferreira - @soudaiseferrreira Denise Silva - @alquimiatour.oficial On Sucesso Cast, real stories become conversations about entrepreneurship, business, behavior, choices, challenges, and the people behind each journey.
