Hi there! We’re Cara and Laura – the dynamic duo behind The Unwieldy World of Disney. If you haven’t already guessed, we’re self-proclaimed Disney adults. But here’s the twist: Cara is your classic Disney Princess Girly, while Laura is all about Marvel and Star Wars. Somehow, we’ve combined our fandoms into one magical friendship fueled by a shared love for all things Disney.
Our story began back in 2012, and over the years, we’ve planned more than a few Disney trips together. Somehow, without fail, our plans always turn into wildly unwieldy adventures. But hey, that’s part of the fun, right?
Laura has absolutely no shame (thank you, Cast Member days), and Cara is always ready to don a tiara for any Disney-themed party and won’t miss it because Laura ate something she’s allergic to. (Yes, these are real stories. We promise to share them on the podcast one day!)
In addition to being Disney fanatics, we’re both full-time working moms who love traveling, planning adventures, and finding the magic in everyday life. Our goal is to help you create your next unforgettable Disney adventure while sharing laughs and lessons we’ve learned along the way.
Whether you’re a seasoned park-goer or planning your very first trip, we’re here to be your guides through the wonderfully unwieldy world of Disney. Let’s make some magic together!
Meet Cara
I’m a Florida native and a New Orleans girl rolled into one. Born in Florida, I grew up in New Orleans, spent summers in Clearwater, and even lived in Pensacola and Apopka, Florida before returning to New Orleans.
I’m a mom of two (ages 23 and 16) and a soon-to-be bonus mom to a 6-year-old. My days are filled with binge-watching cult documentaries, watching TikToks, dreaming about trips to Disney World, and playing with my two puppies! I also work full-time as an affiliate manager at Apogee Agency.
Since 2007, I’ve partnered with local and national brands like Carnival Cruise Lines, Udi’s Gluten-Free, New Orleans City Park, and more as a blogger and social media consultant. My previous projects include Peanuts Are Evil, Jefferson Parish Parent, and Pint-Sized NOLA.
