Lyndsey has literally been a Disney fan since day one, when she was born at the hospital next door to Walt Disney Studios — and has been building that passion ever since. She’s a self-proclaimed Disneyland expert who’s been there for family fun, corporate picnics, and even to march in parades with her high school band. Now, as a mom of 3 rowdy boys, Lyndsey knows that a spoonful of preparation (and sugar đ can make every vacation better — so she loves sharing her Disney expertise with fellow parents to help them plan a memorable, stress-free trip.

@conciears
Bryn loves sharing virtual pixie dust, spreading the love of Disney with Disnerds and newbies alike. Sheâs like our very own Yess, from Ralph Breaks the Internet. She loves Waltâs park, Disneyland, and shares that love with her husband and daughters. Itâs a place of happy memories created with four generations of family.
She knows every word of the Tiki Room music, gets excited when she sees the America Sings animals on Splash Mountain, and thinks the parking lot tram is a real Disneyland ride. Disney crafts, movies, and games are a regular part of her familyâs life. Her favorite thing about Disney is that it helps us embrace Walt Disneyâs motto, âGrowing old is mandatory but growing up is optional.â

@erikpharmd
Erik still isn’t sure how his Disney life matured into full obsession. Semi-annual trips grew closer together, runDisney events driving the need to travel to both coasts. Years of podcasts, books, magazines, and blogs flooded his brain with Disney knowledge. Then somehow a chance call with Head ConciEAR Mike pushed him right over the edge.
A pharmacist by trade and a podcaster by hobby, he seeks out new experiences in every trip. Erik continues to learn of new developments in the parks, week by week. His connections with the podcast community ensure that he will at the very least have a good time learning along the way.

@that_magicmaker_marie
By day (and evening ⌠and sometimes night), I am a Nurse but at all hours, I am a Disney fan! Disneyland is where I feel the magic the most, but I truly love each of the Florida parks as well. I enjoy getting into every last detail when helping plan Disney trips, making them as magical as possible. When Iâm not working as a nurse or planning vacations, youâll find me binging all the content Disney+ has to offer while carrying out my peasant duties at home with my mischievous dog, Millie (Maleficent), by my side. Iâve been hoping she would be inspired by the animated classics and start pitching in with the chores or at least sing a song, but it hasnât happened just yet. I’m so excited to be part of the ConciEARs team! Helping Disney travelers of all types from first time visitors to Disney experts plan magical and memorable vacations is a dream come true for this Disney fan.Â

@planningthedisneydetails
Whether sheâs visiting her favorite spot â Disneyland â or watching the newest Disney Junior show with her son, Michelle always feels her spirits lift when sheâs in the presence of Disney! Michelleâs made countless memories with her family & friends over the years on various trips, and loves nothing more than explaining the ins & outs of a visit to the parks to all who inquire. When fun in the sun is the main objective, a trip on a Disney Cruise or a visit to Disneyâs Aulani is where she focuses her attention. Sheâd love to see the day when âDisney Therapyâ is covered by most insurance providers. Until that time comes, she looks forward to helping her clients plan Disney trips that are worth every penny spent!

@_DISNEYLAND.DREAMER_
Sarahâs love for all things Disney was baked in at birth with a Mickey and Minnie themed nursery. As she got older, her love and passion for the company only grew, leading her to become a Disney Store Cast Member.
She has performed in Disney World for dance competitions, run a Star Wars 5k through Epcot, and sailed the Caribbean seas upon the Disney Fantasy. Sarah even had a Star Wars themed wedding and walked down the aisle to the Imperial March.
She now resides in SoCal so she can be close to Disneyland and introduce her baby to the magic beyond those gates. Her hobby of learning the parks turned into an obsession and led her to planning trips for friends and family since she was their âDisney expert!â Now sheâs a part of the ConciEARS family and feels right at home.

@makingmagicmemories
Lindsey Fronzak grew up in Georgia and was an occasional visitor to the Walt Disney World property throughout her childhood. However, once she graduated college she spent a year in Florida and became an Annual Passholder, making frequent weekend trips to the parks.Â
Since that time, she has grown her family, and loves to take trips with her husband and three kids. Her youngest daughter shares an especially deep love for all things WDW, knows the parks better than her hometown, and is always quick to give her opinion on the best places to eat and the best things to do. If youâve got children, feel free to ask for my assistant to help; sheâd be thrilled! đ
When not planning vacations, Lindsey can be found engaging in the practice of law or at the barn riding horses.
Lindsey is passionate about planning the best trip for *your* family, whether that is an all-out, once in a lifetime celebration, or just this yearâs budget-friendly Disney fix. I want your trip to be as magical and tailor-made for you as possible!Â
