About this listen
In this warm and reflective episode of Yarns With Linda and Preston, the pair share stories about travel, rest, and rediscovering the magic in our own backyard. As holiday season approaches, they explore the pressures families face to create the “perfect” getaway and how true relaxation often comes from slowing down, connecting with people, and appreciating the land beneath our feet.
