This week, Quinn returns from an epic family trip to Alaska with stories of whales, glaciers, and kids who packed two socks for a week-long adventure. But as always, the conversation happens when they get home: dealing with post-vacation lows, kids who think bobbleheads grow on trees, and the daily mental load of parenting through everything else.

Trigger Warning: This episode includes candid discussions about thoughts of escape, mental health struggles, and parental overwhelm. Resources for mental health support can be found here: https://www.whatcanido.earth/results/?verbs=get-help&nouns=mental-health
