Travel should be memorable for the right reasons — not stressful health surprises.

In this upcoming episode of The Heart of Innovation, cohosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips dive into why planning ahead is critical when you're traveling with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), cardiovascular disease, mobility challenges, or strict dietary needs.

📍 Broadcasting live from a Princess Cruise ship in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, Kym shares firsthand how Princess Cruises goes above and beyond to accommodate her and her father's gluten-free, dairy-free, low-salt, low-sugar diet, while still making it possible to stay active and keep daily steps moving — even at sea.

Dr. Phillips breaks down essential medical travel prep, including:

  • How to organize and pack medications properly

  • Why you should identify pharmacies and urgent care locations before you arrive

  • The importance of carrying physician documentation and imaging CDs

  • What to have ready in case of a medical emergency away from home

Whether you love cruising, traveling internationally, or just planning a weekend getaway, this episode offers practical, real-world guidance to help you travel smarter, safer, and with confidence.
