Today I’m chatting with my friend Laura Ishmael, special needs mom, travel advisor, and all-around travel pro. Laura shares how travel became part of her family’s life, even after her daughter Sophie’s rare brain malformation diagnosis. From navigating accessibility challenges to embracing flexibility, Laura’s story is all about keeping dreams alive, even when the path looks different than expected.
We talk about:
🌍 How Laura’s family adapted their travel style after Sophie’s diagnosis.
🛫 Practical tips for overcoming common travel fears (accessibility, medical needs, disrupted routines).
🏨 The magic of staycations and why even small getaways can be life-giving.
💡 How a travel advisor (like Laura!) can help make travel feel possible again.
If you’ve ever felt like travel just isn’t in the cards for your family anymore, this episode might just change your mind!
