Travel In Peace: Episode 6 - Growing a Life Bigger than Celiac Disease

In this episode of Travel in Peace, Tim and Laurel reflect on how Tim’s Celiac diagnosis three years ago reshaped their lives and their approach to travel. What once felt like ordinary routines now comes with an added layer of vigilance, planning, and awareness — and a constant negotiation with uncertainty.The conversation explores how travel amplifies both the joys and the challenges of living with something that can’t be left behind. Eating out becomes a constant mental calculation: which menus are safe, how much to prepare in advance, and when to accept the loss of spontaneity. Everyday decisions — from eating out to navigating new places — become exercises in balancing caution with curiosity. Both share how supporting each other has made it possible to adapt without losing the spirit of adventure, while finding ways to continue “traveling in peace” despite life’s unpredictability.Mentioned in Podcast:Find Me Gluten Free: http://findmeglutenfree.comCeliac Project Podcast: https://www.celiacproject.com/the-podcast/Restaurante Alfileritos 24 (Toledo, Spain) https://alfileritos24.comPlease subscribe to our substack and like or review this podcast wherever you listen to it. https://laurelosullivanjd.substack.com/s/travel-in-peace-a-podcast Get full access to Lost & Found- Discovering Yourself After Loss at laurelosullivanjd.substack.com/subscribe
