It's not a vacation, it's "taking the show on the road". There's so much that goes into preparing for and actually executing on travel once you have kids.

Listen in if you've got travel plans on the horizon or if you're thinking about taking more trips with your kids this year. It's possible to shift your perspective and welcome the ups and downs of "doing life in a new place".
