Olivia Ferney, Chief Marketing Officer at Top Tier Travel, has built a career coordinating luxury travel and events for the ultrawealthy.
Raised in Canada by guidance counselors, she grew up believing “no” was final. But working with rich clients taught her that money and connections often turn “no” into “yes.”
Olivia Says Rich Clients Are Kind, Not Jerks
Ferney screens her clients carefully, rejecting anyone she wouldn’t enjoy working with. On her social media, Travel With Livii, she shares glimpses of her work — from $400,000 gifts to breaking the news of a $900,000 gambling loss.
Contrary to stereotypes, she insists her clients are kind and interesting, not arrogant.
The lifestyle is glamorous but exhausting. She and her fiancé Troy spend about 300 days a year traveling, sometimes washing clothes in sinks despite access to luxury properties.
Stress once caused her hair loss, prompting her to adopt strict wellness routines: meditation, sleep prioritization, and monthly cortisol checks.
Her career has also reshaped family life. She’s flown relatives to Vegas for $100,000 weekends, yet struggles to slow down when back home in Canada.
Ultimately, working with the rich has redefined her idea of success — not just wealth, but access, opportunity, and balance.
