 I sit down with my friend Chloe for a real, honest conversation about what it’s actually like to travel as a neurodivergent (ND) family. From navigating airports with sensory-sensitive kids to releasing the unrealistic pressure of creating the “perfect” holiday, we dive into all the things no one tells you about vacationing when your family doesn’t fit the typical mold. Chloe shares the evolution of her family’s approach to travel—how they’ve let go of rigid schedules, leaned into flexibility, and embraced what works for them. Whether it's ditching detailed itineraries or just focusing on getting through the airport without a meltdown, their story is a reminder that ND families don’t have to conform to society’s version of what a “successful” vacation looks like. We talk about the emotional toll of trying to meet invisible expectations, and how freeing it can be to redefine joy, rest, and connection on your own terms. This episode is for every parent who’s felt exhausted before the trip even starts, overwhelmed by logistics, or judged for not doing things the “right” way. You are not alone—and your version of rest is just as valid. Traveling with autistic or ADHD children brings a unique set of challenges—from sensory overload to unpredictability and changes in routine. This episode creates space to talk about those challenges openly, without shame. It’s not about having all the answers; it’s about learning what works for your family, one trip at a time. Maybe you aren't traveling at the moment but are still looking for fun (& easy) activities to do.
