Episode 59: Travel

It's summer in the U.S. and both Shannon and Janine are traveling. Janine has just returned from a genealogy research trip to Kentucky and Shannon is anticipating an Alaskan cruise. In this episode we discuss some "good enough" strategies to make travel more enjoyable and less stressful. Discussion topics include: • How Janine let her recent genealogy research trip be easy • The benefit of building flexibility into the research trip • The beauty of a simplified wardrobe when you’re traveling • The challenges of packing for an Alaskan cruise • Some ideas for creative packing to deal with multiple climates • Various ways we’re using Trello for travel planning • A new-to-us tool for making Trello even better: The Trello Safari bookmark (it feels magical!) • How perfectionism around travel can be so paralyzing we don't go anywhere • Other ways that perfectionism can get in the way of traveling • Building self-care into travel • The value of building in a buffer of at least one rest day after returning from a trip • Planning to do less than you think you can fit in, to leave room for rest and spontaneity Visit www.gettingtogoodenough.com for Trello links!
