Packing for a trip doesn’t have to be a stress fest.

In this episode, I share my simple, low-stress travel packing strategy: I start tossing things into a suitcase a week before the trip — no pressure, just instinct. Then, the night before I leave, I review everything, cut what I don’t need, fill in any gaps, and lock it down. It’s flexible, mindful, and helps me avoid that last-minute “I forgot something” panic.

Whether you’re a chronic overpacker or always scrambling last minute, give it a try — or tell me what works for you.

How do you pack? Do you plan it all or wing it? Let’s compare notes.
