My daughter has no idea.
She turns seven in January. The night of her birthday, I’m telling her we’re going to Disney World — just me and her. The hotel is booked. The plane tickets are bought.
But here’s the thing nobody tells you about Disney trips: it’s not just the trip. It’s the ears. It’s the matching shirts, the Disney backpacks, all the gear. And if I can get a few brands to help make this trip a little more magical, I’m at least going to try.
So I built a board with 77 Disney brands on it, and I put my 87-year-old great-aunt in charge of brand relations. When a brand says yes, she strikes the gong.
Mission Magic Mondays: every Monday until the trip — the planning, the story, and the scoreboard.
If you’re a Disney brand — my DMs are open. If you’re a parent planning a trip — come steal my planning tips. If you’re a small creator pitching brands with 3,500 followers and a dream — come watch me do it in public, gong and all.
