September 02 Traveling to 100 Countries as a Family of 5 ft. the Bucket List Family
This episode has been sitting in the vault for two years, and we’re finally getting to share it with you.
We’re so grateful to The Bucket List Family for joining us and for allowing us to share this never-before-seen conversation while Abby is taking time to heal and enjoy maternity leave. We talk about raising fearless kids, traveling the world as a family, their unconventional parenting philosophy, close calls with crocodiles and great white sharks, and what they’ve learned from nearly a decade of adventure together.
We hope you enjoy this special episode as much as we loved recording it. ❤️

Carson and Brielle Matranga may be known for raising their family in a tiny home, but behind the scenes their story is far more unexpected.
In this episode, they open up about moving in together as teenagers, growing up with addiction, breaking generational cycles, and navigating anxiety and parenthood. They also share what it's really like raising a family in 516 sq feet, and why they wouldn't change it for anything.
