Brian and Liz, husband and wife, have rented their New Zealand home for another year so they can continue their nomadic lifestyle around the world. Last week, we shared an awkward (but real) conversation about our conflicting opinions on whether we should return home to New Zealand to do the handover. We finally reached a decision, and today we want to share it with you.

We held off sharing this episode. It's one of those uncomfortable (but real) conversations that married couples have when they need to get something sorted, but they can't seem to agree. These conversations usually happen in private. But. We strive to keep things real and remain honest with you on this podcast. So here we are. Awkwardness and all. Thank you for being part of this community. Of this journey. For making us feel brave enough to share not just the ups and the laughs and the funny stories, but the downs, the tears and the sweaty-palmed conversations. Conversations like this one.

Parenting kids in their twenties is wonderful, daunting, fabulous, worrying, easy, really, really hard, joyful, exhausting, confusing, a privilege, expensive, ageing and a joy.  We have been travelling the world as a family for a year. Next month, our kids will go their separate ways. Sonny will go to America, and Tess will live in London. Last night, we had a task. To go out for the night and talk to our kids separately. To find out what's going on and ask how they feel. Our results were poles apart. Here's what happened. We love you. Thank you for your gorgeous support. If you would like to show us some love, you can do so by leaving us a review wherever you listen to this podcast.  It would also be wonderful if you shared this episode with a friend who craves real-life, never-edited-or-filtered conversations.

Last week, we received a comment on the podcast that said, "We would love to do what you are doing, but it seems too risky". In today's episode, we would like to address that comment and share a few life lessons grief has taught us.

We hope our words bring you clarity and inspiration. We love you. Thank you for your support and your wonderful comments.

Sometimes you just have to let it go. Even if it hurts your pride. Even if you're scared people will judge you. Even if it did cost over a grand. This week, join husband-and-wife podcasters Liz and Brian as they take you on a stroll through the English countryside and share three tough decisions they've made during their nomadic year of travel; how the UK is presenting them with challenges, and why they love each other more than ever. At the end of the podcast.  Liz also shares another reading from her soon-to-be-released book on grief, loss and healing. If you are struggling with loss of any kind, my book will help you. I will let you know as soon as it is available. Until then, know that my heart beats with yours. You are not alone. You are loved Thank you, as always, for being here with us.
