Family Looking Up

Join us this week for a fun episode with just the three of us talking about the day today fun things (as well as functional things) that we want to do with our kids to make great memories this summer. In this episode we brainstorm ways to hold off insanity while trying to enjoy the best parts of summer! Enjoy!

Our guests are parents of 5 kids and are here to give great tips and tricks to making family travel possible at every income.  If you are ready to make memories this summer but just don't know how to afford it and actually enjoy it with all those kiddos, then this is the episode for you!  Enjoy!

You're in for a treat this week with guest Miranda Anderson @livefreemiranda joining us to talk about finding happiness and adventure in your life (no matter the stage).  This is a fun interview that is perfect to listen to as summer is beginning!  We loved Miranda and know you will too!

We have an incredible episode this week with author Michaleen Doucleff. In Hunt, Gather, Parent, Doucleff sets out with her three-year-old daughter in tow to learn and practice parenting strategies from families in three of the world’s most venerable communities: Maya families in Mexico, Inuit families above the Arctic Circle, and Hadzabe families in Tanzania. She sees that these cultures don’t have the same problems with children that Western parents do. Most strikingly, parents build a relationship with young children that is vastly different from the one many Western parents develop - it’s built on cooperation instead of control, trust instead of fear, and personalized needs instead of standardized development milestones.
