Bizzy fam! Surprise—episode 594 is your ultimate Thanksgiving Road warrior guide! Becky Shipos and I spill the hilarious horrors and heartwarming hacks of hauling kids through holiday traffic, from epic meltdowns to magic unplanned pit stops. We get real on ditching perfection for presence, navigating family feast feuds with grace, and why gratitude turns "are we there yet?" into "thank God for this crew." If you're bracing for car-seat battles or awkward aunt convos, this episode's your sanity saver—pack light, laugh loud, and let's roll!
