This is a unique recording {laughs} but you’ve got to do what it takes when you're on the road. Diane and I are sitting here in the backseat of our wonderful Uber driver’s car in Chicago; we just landed!<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: Yes we are. In some beautiful rush hour traffic.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: {laughs} I think we’ve got a little ways before we get to our destination, so we figured we’d dial in, and now that we’re two weeks into this three week-long book signing tour, Diane for Practical Paleo second edition, which you can get in a hardcover or paperback; though we recommend the hardcover.<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: We do.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: {laughing} Pro tip; get the hardcover. {laughs}<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: It travels better.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: It travels better, exactly. And then me, for my Fed and Fit book. So we’re really excited; we have a signing in Skokie today when this episode airs on Tuesday. And yeah, so it’s been a really fun trip. But a couple of weeks on the road, and you get pretty good at figuring out how to make travel less stressful. So that’s what we want to talk to you guys about today, is really how to make travel less stressful. There are some tips and tricks; Diane is definitely a seasoned veteran, and I’ve been a very coachable student. {laughs} in a lot of these tips, and it really has made a huge difference, some of these things we’re going to talk about today. Both general travel tips, and then also with regard to food and overall health. So let’s go ahead and get into it!<br> <br> Alright. So our general tips to start off; first one we talk about is take Uber.<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: Take Uber. Yeah. So a lot of times when you travel, you can rent a car and this is not sponsored, by the way.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: No {laughs}.<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: You can rent a car, but first of all sometimes renting a car is totally affordable, but sometimes it’s crazy expensive. It can be over $100 a day to rent a car, and if you just take an Uber a few times a day, you probably won’t spend that much. And also, I don’t know about everybody else, but if I get in a car in a new city, I don’t have my little holder for my phone in the car, and I’m trying to map around and just drive around and navigate the traffic and all of that; and it’s just so much easier to just go sit in a car, and someone else is going to drive, and you can check your map and see where you’re going and figure things out.<br> <br> So, I love to just leave that to somebody else. Basically; oh, that’s my phone. Basically, you’re delegating. You’re delegating the driving, you know?<br> <br> Cassy Joy: That’s true. I mean, it really is the concept; one way to destress in general is to delegate more tasks. Plus,
