About this listen

In this episode of Shhh, My Kids Are Asleep, I share a simple cheat code for surviving life after vacation — building a decompression day into the end of your trip so you can rest, reset, and ease back into the week instead of crashing straight into real life.

I also talk about traveling to Louisiana to visit family, reconnecting with cousins, and how it felt like no time had passed at all. Cousins really are built-in friends, and sometimes the easiest relationships are the ones that don’t need explaining.

We reflect on the importance of checking in on the people we love, my regret about not visiting my grandma more, and the gratitude that comes with having the means and opportunity to spend time with family while we can.

This episode is about slowing down, being present, and finding small ways to take care of yourself — even after the trip ends.
