rediscover

This week's episode of ReDIScover is a nostalgic trip down memory lane. If you were an active trip report reader on the DISboards in 2011-2013, you are not going to want to miss this one!

This week, we pulled up two of our most beloved trip reports, read them out loud, and recorded our real-time reactions. We have not read these entries since 2011, so it was amazing coming back to reflect on them almost 10 years later. There is something really special about reconnecting with your younger self, seeing how you've grown and changed, and also realizing how much is actually still the same.

The trip reports we reflected on were:

• The Port Report: Frumpin' Around the World with the Bathrobe Princesses
• "There's No Sleeping in Disney!" SURPRISE – The Frumps are Back Again!

*The majority of images have since been lost due to the hosting site no longer supporting them

*Both reports were written by and from the perspective of 2011 Jess, however in this episode we both split up reading different portions aloud!

A special thanks to Kelly (@knshaw3) for submitting this idea for an episode!

Welcome to Episode 2 of ReDIScover! Today, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the ways we have engaged in self-care during the global pandemic and the overall chaos that has been 2020. Though March found the two of us in completely different situations, you'll find that we experienced many similar revelations and breakthroughs as time went on. From engaging in difficult confrontations with ourselves to re-evaluating our outlooks on life, we hope you'll find encouragement and inspiration to turn this time of uncertainty into one of personal growth and positive change.

Welcome to the very first episode of ReDIScover! We are your hosts, Jess and Kristen! As a kick-off to our podcast, we wanted to take you on a trip down memory lane. This episode talks about how Disney has impacted our lives during so many different phases - beginning with childhood stories to finding a community of people with a common love for Disney... to even living right in the middle of the magic! Major pieces like DisBoards and The Disney College Program were building blocks in our journeys, and we hope you enjoy hearing some first-hand insight and reflection from the "frumps."

Welcome everybody to ReDIScover - a podcast hosted by long-time friends, Jess and Kristen. You may have known us in the past as "The Frumps," and now, almost 10 years later, we are "ReDIScovering" the ways we can create together and connect with you! This podcast, of course, talks lots about Disney, but it touches on a little bit of everything. Our intention is to have conversations that really get down to the essence of who we are and to discuss how to live authentically and imaginatively.
