## Resource

In this episode, Rachel argues that vacations should be intentional experiences that leave people feeling rested, inspired, and fulfilled rather than exhausted. Reflecting on her own upbringing and current lifestyle, she emphasizes the importance of prioritizing travel, and choosing the type of travel deliberately based on personal needs. Rach highlights common mistakes such as traveling with incompatible companions, over-scheduling, and focusing too much on social media instead of being present. She also encourages planning ahead, setting clear priorities with a budget, and saving for desired experiences rather than going into debt. Ultimately, she frames vacations as a reflection of self-worth and an opportunity to create lasting memories and personal growth.
