In Episode 2 of Mouse Ears & Messy Buns, we’re talking about one of the biggest Disney mistakes we see families make: trying to do everything.

From overbooked days and packed Lightning Lane schedules to the pressure of a “one and done” trip, we break down why treating Disney like a checklist actually makes it harder — and way less magical.

We’ll share real Disney mom fails, explain why “doing more” doesn’t mean “having more fun,” and talk through how to set realistic expectations that work for your family, your kids’ energy levels, and your travel style.

Takeaway: Disney isn’t about doing all the things — it’s about doing the right things, at the right times.

In our very first episode of Mouse Ears & Messy Buns, we’re tackling the #1 thing we hear from moms: “Disney feels SO overwhelming.”

From too many resorts (seriously—so many), ticket options, dining, and that pressure to “do it all,” we break down why planning feels like a million browser tabs… and how to simplify it fast.

We’ll walk you through the 3 decisions to focus on first (dates, resort, and ticket days), share our “starter pack” recommendation for first-timers, and quickly explain the difference between Value, Moderate, and Deluxe resorts (plus why Epcot is absolutely a kid park).

Takeaway: You don’t need to do everything, you just need a plan that fits your family.
