Manage episode 428545181 series 3585971
Hello ladies, and Welcome to Episode 10 of The Career Woman’s Secret Playbook Podcast! I’m your host, Dr. Dawn, CEO/Founder of Dr. Dawn ShopTalk and with SO many folks travelling for Summer Vacations right now, I thought this would be the perfect time to talk about how to think about time a little differently when you travel. As career women, we are busy enough as it is, right ladies, and so anything we can do to streamline our To Do List is a must. And when it comes to travel, there’s usually a pretty long To Do List. Packing alone can be stressful, right ladies, and the LAST thing you need is to add more stress when you are just trying to enjoy your well-earned vacation. If you added up the number of extra hours you have to spend deciding on what you’re going to pack, the TSA lines you have to stand on and/or the errands you have to go on at the last minute, you would be shocked!
Use these tips below to create a seamless and stress-free experience when you travel:
Tip #1: You Can't Control the Weather but you Can Check it - in other words, get at least SOME idea of what the weather is supposed to be, whether you’re travelling to the next town, out of state, or out of the country, and a good rule of thumb is to also pack those “just in case” items in case the weather changes OR in case the air conditioning is turned up SO high that you might as well be in a meat-packing plant!
Tip #2: Use My BWS Rule for Your Color Scheme , which stands for Black/White/Splash of Color. In other words, use black/white clothes as the foundation of your travel wardrobe, then add a splash of color to change it up, either with clothes or accessories.
Tip #3: Unleash My Stop, Drop, & Roll Packing Method , which translates to STOP bringing 10 pairs of shoes and so many skincare products that you’re sabotaging any chance you have of enjoying carefree packing, DROP those items off in a separate travel-sized organizer or bag that can be thrown into your suitcase, and do NOT touch them unless you’re travelling, and then pack items that can be easily ROLL-ed into other items (like socks into shoes) or along the inside of your suitcase.
Follow these tips and you will be well on your way to being able to pack for an entire week in a carry-on bag. I kid you not!
