In this thoughtful and deeply encouraging conversation, Ginny Yurich sits down with author Jenna Lee Dillon to talk about what it really looks like to travel well with kids without numbing them out along the way. Drawing from her book Look Up: A Wild and Screen-Freed Roadmap to Enjoying Travel with Kids, Jenna shares why the journey matters just as much as the destination, how boredom and discomfort can become gifts instead of problems, and why children do not need constant entertainment to thrive. This episode is a fresh reminder that family travel can be slower, richer, more connected, and far more memorable when we choose presence over convenience and model a life our children will actually want to grow into.
