why can't you relax on vacation?

from Chief of Self Hosted by Mady Maio

In this episode, I’m sharing my mindful travel playbook: the exact tools I use to stay grounded, present, and regulated on trips, even when routines change, alcohol is involved, or there’s pressure to “make the most of it.” ✨ In this episode: Why trips can feel so dysregulating (and how to prevent it) The one question to ask before every trip Mental rehearsal as a tool for staying embodied while traveling Why travel shouldn’t require “recovery time” when you get home If you’ve ever come back from a trip feeling depleted, anxious, or like you need another vacation, this episode will help you travel in a way that feels intentional and actually enjoyable. 🎙️ Listen every Tuesday for new episodes of Chief of Self , my cozy, big-sister podcast for mindset, growth, and the messy process of becoming your highest self.
