How to Travel with Kids: 3 Ways to Make it Easier

Nervous about travelling with kids this holiday season?

In this special replay episode I discuss the challenges of traveling with kids during the holiday season. I explain the cognitive process that children go through and how travel tests their executive functioning skills. I also emphasize the importance of seeing it through your child's perspective and making it about the journey, not the destination.

Ready to nurture your relationship while raising strong, self-aware kids who feel truly seen, heard, and safe to tell you anything?
