A Whole New World - Travel For Healing and Growth with Jackie
Manage episode 287093838 series 2892606
Jackie left her beloved career as a middle school music teacher when her beautiful son was diagnosed with autism at age three. Always brave enough to acknowledge her feelings, she is open about how that sudden shift was difficult, but not paralyzing, for her. Thankfully, through a love for Disney Parks vacations, she has discovered a whole new, inclusive and supportive community of families of all types. From her gratitude, she loves to share her stories and help families enjoy beautiful vacations of their own.
With creative pre-planning, Jackie has toured the world with her whole family and witnessed incredible development and heartwarming moments thanks to the magic of travel. She joins us today to remind you to give yourself grace when life shifts your path, and to take your next step forward with courage and compassion.
