How to navigate family planning when scheduled bonding feels artificial

My family keeps scheduling these elaborate vacation plans months in advance but when the time comes we're never in the right headspace for it and the trip feels forced and expensive and disappointing. We all want family time but we can't seem to create space for spontaneous connection.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The family is caught between the necessity of coordination and the impossibility of programming genuine connection.
