Do you want to know where I go on holidays when I’m not on assignment and not sponsored? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I fell in love with #Penticton on a media trip in 2018 and quickly asked myself “Is this paradise” 🏝. Sitting on the sandy beach we had officially found the unique combination of a perfect savage family vacation:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Make yourself proud... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I think this one is especially hard for Moms. Moms who would do anything for their children and their families, often landing themselves on the backburner. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The trick? Start small. Maybe it's an evening paddleboard with friends or saying yes to trying a new adventure. It may be hard at first. Your husband may groan at having to babysit (FYI it's called parenting) and your kids may cry when you leave the door. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But stepping away for a few hours to invest in your own physical and mental health is the best thing you can do. And each micro-investment builds up to create the best version of yourself and YOUR life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Happier Mom = Healthier Mom = Healthier Family. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

So excited to share my news with you! ⠀⠀⠀⠀

So excited to share my news with you! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This week an article was published on @TripAdvisor where @ByHeatherGD interviewed me on "How to ditch the screen and get your kids to experience your outdoor trip like the 80's." #LeadByAdventure ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Jami Savage runs the Family Adventure Travel site Adventure Awaits and her two kids not only like being outside, they like being outside with their parents! What’s her secret? Getting rid of the barriers. Tech is one but so are (spoiler alert) us adults. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Kids actually want to be in nature,” suggests Savage. “It's parents and schedules and logistics that are the actual barriers.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Below, we’ve tapped our ‘80s childhood nostalgia to put together a “mix tape” of advice from experts on how kids can “Get Into the Groove” of being outdoors versus wanting to “Beat It.” Consider these tips the next time you want to go on a family nature outing. As a bonus, they could inspire more than a few carpool karaoke moments.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Special thanks to @ByHeatherGD for the interview and @GMC for sponsoring this post and encouraging families to #GetOutside ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
