Hi Mamas,
Today’s episode is a throwback with extra bonus tips... and is your official permission slip to log off, power down, and actually enjoy your vacation. Whether you’re heading off for a week at the beach, a big international trip like our Ireland adventure, or just a staycation with your people—this episode is for every mom who wants to be fully present without checking her inbox under the beach umbrella.
I’m walking you through 15 practical tips to help you prep, protect your peace, and actually enjoy your time off without guilt, work FOMO, or that awful “I should just check one thing really quick” spiral.
✨ What You’ll Learn:
✅ How to prep your team, manager, and projects in advance so you can truly unplug ✅ The exact language to set boundaries (and how to deal with managers who push back) ✅ What to include in your out-of-office reply so you don’t come back to chaos ✅ Why deleting your work apps from your phone is a total game-changer ✅ How to leave your future self a return plan that reduces re-entry anxiety ✅ BONUS: How to set a gratitude intention to stay grounded during your trip (especially when your kids start fighting over who touched who first 😂)
Whether you’re counting down to PTO or dreaming of the next break, this episode will help you create space to breathe and reconnect…with your family and yourself.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
