Does the thought of a family vacation leave you feeling more tense than excited? If you’re parenting a highly sensitive or emotionally intense child, even the idea of travel can bring up anxiety, dread, and a fear of public meltdowns. But what if you could take a vacation that builds connection while managing the emotional dysregulation—without sacrificing your sanity?

In this episode, I’m sharing real-life strategies and calming tools we’ve used in our family of nine to make vacations work—even with kids who struggle with transitions, big feelings, and emotional dysregulation. From packing hacks to powerful mindset shifts, this is your go-to guide for traveling with more peace and less chaos.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why vacations are extra hard for emotionally intense kids
  • How to prevent meltdowns with simple planning strategies
  • Tools to create calm and connection while traveling
  • What to do during a meltdown to support your child
  • One powerful question that can change the tone of your entire trip

If you’ve ever ended a trip feeling more exhausted than when you started, this episode is for you. Let’s turn the chaos into connection—one small step at a time.
