We welcome Maggie to the show this week to discuss her first Disney Cruise. This was a surprise cruise that she only learned about a few weeks before. Maggie first got to see the Magic in Liverpool, many years ago, and discussed manifesting being on the ship one day and how boarding the Magic for the first time was a real full-circle moment for her. Maggie was full of such positivity and love for Disney, we hope you enjoy.
