Episode Title: Vacation vs Trip vs Staycation: The Winter Reset We All Need

Publish Date: 02/11/2026

Hosted by: Jenn Schofield + Jodi Ross

Brand: Danz Insanity Studios

Episode Summary

Jenn and Jodi are officially in “we need a vacation” mode — and honestly, same. In this episode, they break down the difference between a vacation (rest, recharge, romantic energy) and a trip (kids, logistics, and “what’s the WiFi code??”). They talk girls’ trips, couples getaways, all-inclusives, Disney strategy-level cardio, and why you should decide ahead of time what kind of vacation you’re taking so you don’t spend the whole time feeling guilty.

They also keep it real about fitness on vacation: sometimes you’re walking 30,000 steps a day without trying… and sometimes you’re committing to doing absolutely nothing — no shame. Plus: hotel gyms get roasted, MyZone gets a shoutout, and they wrap with a reminder that rest is productive and winter won’t last forever.
