Sally's Safe and Connected Travel

Welcome to Sally’s Safe and Connected Travel — a channel for travelers with chronic illness who want to explore the world without crashing their nervous system. Hi I’m Sally: a travel advisor, psychologist, and longtime chronic illness warrior. After 20 years working as a clinical psychologist, I got sick and spent years navigating life with complex chronic conditions. Thanks to nervous system regulation (especially Polyvagal theory), I’ve made significant progress — and now I help others travel in ways that support their bodies, not overwhelm them. On this channel, you’ll find: • Honest hotel reviews from an accessibility + nervous system lens • Travel tips for people with chronic illness • My personal experience living and working from Japan • Advice on booking travel that’s safe, supportive, and empowering for spoonies If you live with chronic illness you don’t need to give up on travel — you just need to do it differently. I’m here to help.
