Description

If you’ve ever found yourself scrambling to get everything done before a trip—then returning home to a chaotic house, an overflowing inbox, and zero groceries—you’re not alone. That last stretch before vacation can feel like a sprint, and coming home doesn’t always feel like the reset it should.


In this episode, I’m sharing a practical, stress-reducing pre-vacation prep routine that covers everything besides the packing. From organizing care for kids, pets, and aging parents to tidying up the house, handling life admin, and prepping for time away from work—this is the kind of list that helps you leave home with confidence and return to a lot less chaos.
