Think you’re saving money by booking your own trips? You might want to rethink that…

In this episode, we’re joined by travel agent (and Amy’s go-to trip planner) Heather Honaker, and she is breaking down everything moms actually need to know about planning summer travel—without the stress, overwhelm, or 15 browser tabs open.

We’re talking myths, mistakes, and the behind-the-scenes truth about what travel agents really do (spoiler: it’s a lot more than you think). From saving time and avoiding disasters to unlocking perks you didn’t even know existed—this episode might completely change how you plan your next trip.

We cover:

  • The biggest myth about travel agents (and why you’re already paying for one anyway)
  • Why booking your own trip can actually cost you more (in time, stress, and mistakes)
  • When you should be booking summer travel (and what to do if you’re late)
  • The best family, girls trip, and low-stress vacation ideas
  • One travel mistake almost everyone makes (hello, missed flights 👀)
  • Real-life travel fails that will make you feel better about your own

Whether you’re planning a big summer trip, a quick getaway, or just dreaming of your next escape—this episode is your permission slip to stop doing it all yourself.

Because around here… we don’t need perfect vacations. We just need ones we can actually enjoy.

Heather has been married for almost 28 years and is mom to two grown girls. She's been a travel advisor for over 7 years, helping others explore some of the most incredible places around the world. Heather currently lives in Kington, Jamaica, and believes that traveling with intention has a way of making the world feel smaller.
