It's easy to get lost in the "Disney Stress."
It's easy to get lost in the "Disney Stress."
We’ve all seen it: the frantic sprinting to a Lightning Lane, the frustration over a missed dining reservation, and the feeling that you need a vacation from your vacation. When the logistics of The Most Magical Place on Earth start to overshadow the magic itself, something important gets lost.
I’ve spent years navigating these parks—not just as a professional, but as someone who believes these spaces offer something deeper than just rides and characters. They are restorative and joy personified.
I remember a specific afternoon at Epcot. The pavement was hot, the crowds were thick, and I watched a family nearby arguing over which World Showcase pavilion to hit next. They were so focused on the map that they missed the street performer starting a show just feet away—a moment of pure, spontaneous joy. It reminded me why I do what I do.
Disney isn't just a destination; it’s a canvas for nostalgia and connection. It’s the smell of popcorn that transports you back to being five years old, the shared awe of a firework show that makes the world feel small and kind, and the quiet conversations held while waiting for a parade. When we strip away the pressure to "do it all," we find the space to actually be together.
