137. How I Stick to My Routines While Traveling for the Holidays (My Travel Menu)

Holiday travel can throw your routines completely off - new environments, disrupted sleep, different food, and nonstop social time. In this episode, I’m walking you through what I call my “travel menu” - the small rituals, habits, and routines that help me feel grounded, energized, and like myself even when I’m away from home. You’ll hear how I approach sleep, morning routines, food, movement, and self-care during trips, plus the mindset shift that’s helped me stop abandoning my habits every time I travel.In this episode:👉🏻 What a “travel menu” is and how to build your own👉🏻 How to regulate sleep in new environments👉🏻 My morning anchors that keep me feeling normal👉🏻 Food & fitness swaps I make when traveling👉🏻 Travel-friendly self-care + beauty routinesBLACK FRIDAY SALE + CODE: Expires Dec 1 2025 at 11:59PMCODE: BFSALE2025PFD7.0: https://breakyourbudget.com/personal-finance-dashboardFIRE Planner: https://breakyourbudget.com/fire-templateBasic Budget Template: https://breakyourbudget.com/basic-budgeting-templateTimestamps:00:00 – Intro + Holiday Update02:00 – Why Traveling Disrupts Routines04:00 – The Idea Behind My “Travel Menu”06:30 – How to Stay Grounded During the Holidays08:00 – Sleep & Rest Rituals (My Non-Negotiables)10:00 – Morning Routine Anchors That Keep Me Centered13:00 – How I Approach Food & Movement While Traveling17:00 – My Minimalist Travel Skincare & Beauty Routine20:00 – What’s in My Travel Kit (Hair, Skin, and Body Essentials)23:00 – Building Your Own Travel MenuBREAK YOUR BUDGET RESOURCES:💸 Personal Finance Dashboard:https://breakyourbudget.com/personal-finance-dashboard💸 Basic Budgeting Template: https://breakyourbudget.com/basic-budgeting-template💸 FI/RE Template: https://breakyourbudget.com/fire-template💸 NEW RENT VS.
