I’m sharing how I’m preparing for a two-week trip to Europe as a spoonie — from the excitement (and nerves!) to the mindset shifts, packing essentials, and pacing strategies that help me travel with more ease.

You'll hear:

How I’m adjusting to the time zone before my flight
What’s in my carry-on and flare-up kit (heatwraps, electrolytes, meditations + more)
How I’ve planned rest into my itinerary (including spa days and slow café mornings)
The simple ways I’m supporting my nervous system and asking for help
How ChatGPT helped me prep with spoonie-friendly travel tips and pacing ideas

Whether you’re planning your own trip or just dreaming of future adventures, I hope this episode reminds you that travel is possible — even with chronic illness — when you honor your body, plan ahead, and lead with compassion. 💛
