Screen Rant's exclusive trailer gives a first look at the new road trip comedy Tripped Up. In the trailer, Lizzy played by Leah Lewis is venting to her friends about her struggles at work, but they seem determined to get her out of her head. The four young women get on the road to a food festival, hoping to give Lizzy an opportunity to show off her skills and find her passion for cooking once again. The other girls struggle with their own issues, including relationship drama. With hilarious hijinks, including mistakenly booking a tiny house to stay in, fights when Lizzy loses her cool, and sage advice from others, these four friends will find their way back together closer than ever.

Balancing a career and life is a very normal struggle that many people face, especially in their twenties and thirties.

The trailer also includes a heartwarming undercurrent that is sure to shine through in the movie, especially by the end.
