Why Short Trips Save Your Sanity
from The Daily Grateful with Michael Crose Hosted by Michael Crose
It's been a rough couple of weeks — a night without power, unexpected bills, the loss of a beloved cat, and a needy remaining feline who isn't making it any easier. In this short but heartfelt episode, your host opens up about the toll of everyday stress and the simple cure he's leaning on: getting away, even just for a weekend. He's hitting the road with his ex-wife Diane on a scenic 200-mile ride to the coast, phone mostly off (except for the kids and grandkids), and no agenda but rest. Along the way, he shares why distance creates perspective, why short trips count just as much as long vacations, and why rest is a skill worth practicing — not just something that happens to you. Recorded in a rush before Diane arrives, this quick, honest check-in is a reminder that sometimes the best thing you can do is just get out of your routine. Don't sweat the small stuff — it's all small stuff.
