If the phrase “I need a vacation from my vacation” describes how you felt after your last Disney trip, this episode was made for you.

I’m sharing the real-life, real-mom moves I’m making to make our next Disney trip feel actually chill. We're talking Disney trip essentials that actually matter, a Disney trip itinerary that won’t make you cry in Tomorrowland, and a deep dive into what’s worth the Disney trip cost (spoiler: it’s not a fourth set of matching shirts). 

Oh - and yes, we’re breaking down how to skip lines at Disney without melting down before rope drop.

Inside this episode, I’m spilling:

  • The 1 thing I’m splurging on daily (and what I’m skipping instead) to make the Disney trip cost actually make sense for our sanity.
  • The Disney trip essentials I don’t pack anymore (and how we make packing in only carry on bags work for our family).
  • The not-so-secret sauce behind our no-sprint, no-sweat, no-tears Disney trip itinerary (yes, we still ride stuff).
  • My favorite hacks for how to skip lines at Disney that don’t involve rope-dropping like you’re on an Olympic track team.
  • The genius (and slightly lazy) reservation trick that’s saving my energy and my outfit every day of our Disney trip.

If you're overwhelmed by Lightning Lanes, confused about your Disney trip itinerary, or second-guessing which Disney trip essentials are worth packing, this episode is your reset button. It's for the moms who want fewer meltdowns and more margaritas.
