I sit down with Jess and Garrett Gee, the creators of The Bucket List Family, to discuss their journey to becoming travel journalists and documenting their experiences with the world. After Garrett sold his Scan app to Snapchat they found themselves with newfound freedom. They sold all their belongings to begin their travels in pursuit of finding happiness with less, living a life of service and compassion, and creating life long memories with their family.

In this episode we cover:

  • Their journey to becoming travel journalists and The Bucket List Family
  • How traveling has been different since COVID
  • Garrett’s creation of the mobile-scanning app, Scan, and selling it to Snapchat for $54 million dollars
  • How they run their family and business and who is the creative side vs. the business/back-end side
  • What inspires them to keep going and not just settle down and retire?
  • Jess shares what it’s like being married to Garrett
  • How to prevent burn out and keep invested in projects that stimulates and excites them
  • How they move forward when they disagree on big changes in their family
  • What the education is like for their children moving around so much
  • Their conflict in desires to homeschool or not and setting them up for their futures
  • The growing popularization of children having their own smart phones and detrimental effects
  • The topic of children on social media
  • Advice for others looking to create a life of success, whatever that success looks like for them
  • Their progress on their latest venture, The Bucket List Studios
  • Their favorite place they’ve traveled to and the scariest thing they’ve experienced on the road
