Description
We can’t believe it—Travel Mom Squad has hit 100 episodes! For this milestone, we wanted to do something extra special, so we put a question box on Instagram and let you take the lead on what we’d cover. From travel pet peeves to our all-time favorite destinations, we’re answering it all with our first-ever video podcast. Yes, you read that right! Now, you can join us on YouTube and see all our expressions as we talk about the good, the bad, and the hilarious moments of family travel. In this episode, we get personal with questions like, What’s your biggest “ick” when flying? You’ll hear all about Jess’s headphone policy, Alex’s boarding gate crowding frustrations, and Pam’s polite plea for more airplane etiquette. We laughed so hard sharing our biggest annoyances, but the truth is, these little quirks come up every trip. If you’ve traveled with kids, partners, or even just your own carry-on, you’ll be nodding along! Ever wondered if travel creators like us ever truly unplug? Or maybe you’re curious about how we balance making memories with capturing content. We’re spilling the secrets! It’s true: even when we’re “off,” we’re probably snapping a few photos or jotting down tips, but we also cherish those quiet moments with our families. There’s always a balance, and in this episode, we talk about how each of us keeps travel feeling like an adventure. Of course, a Travel Mom Squad Q&A wouldn’t be complete without diving into our points and miles obsession. We each reveal how many Hyatt points we’ve redeemed in 2024—Jess’s total might blow your mind! We share why Hyatt is our go-to and the incredible places points have taken us this year, from Japan to Costa Rica. But we also get real about the redemptions that weren’t so dreamy. Think Venice in the rain and unexpected Kuala Lumpur heatwaves. Lastly, we’re opening up about the business side of Travel Mom Squad. From affiliate links to digital courses, we explain how we keep the show running and offer advice for anyone hoping to turn their passion into a career. Whether you’re a travel fanatic or just love hearing behind-the-scenes insights, this episode is packed with everything that makes family travel so inspiring—and sometimes unpredictable! Join us for laughs, insights, and a few surprises as we celebrate 100 episodes.
