- Helpful, relatable, and honest tips!
I feel like I’ve been collecting tips via social media ever since we started planning our family’s first Disney trip coming up in a few weeks. Some accounts are information overload and just not realistic for a mom with three little kids. This podcast is fantastic! I feel like Dana gives just enough information to help things run smoothly without overwhelming you, and also being realistic at the same time. I’m so grateful I found this podcast!

We’re getting ready for our first Disney Cruise, and my husband wanted to add a visit to Disney World. I was hesitant and found myself scouring the internet for information, feeling completely overloaded. Tha... more
