✈️ Your Turn: Your Travel Prescription
You’ve been the spreadsheet, the packer, the planner, the person everyone texts. You’ve been carrying the last frontier: the mental load — invisible, constant, exhausting — and calling it “normal.”
I ran away once and discovered that space is how long-term relationships (read: women) breathe again. I called it my great awakening; my family called it “the time Mum got mad and took off.”
Today, let’s do the adult, clear-eyed thing: name the load, clock the story you’re telling yourself, and prescribe the days you actually need. Not a reward — recovery.
Nod to the women who’ve helped name this: Elise Loehnen and Eve Rodsky. Their spirit meets my midlife, travel, and wellbeing lens — and your real life.
