Welcome back to the Being Well Family Podcast for our first Weekly Q&A!!! Ooooooo exciting.

After the response to Episode 1, we've been receiving questions from friends, family, followers and complete strangers about our plans to sell everything, take the kids out of school and head off on a one way adventure. So we thought it was time to start answering them.

In this episode we discuss the reality of trying to sell a house with three children and a dog, the house viewer who never turned up, and the conversation with our postman who couldn't quite understand why we aren't buying a bigger house and are choosing to travel instead.

We also dive into a topic that seems to resonate with so many families right now: does having more stuff, a bigger house and a higher income actually make us happier? Or are we all working harder than ever just to stand still?

Most importantly, we answer one of the biggest questions we've received so far:

What about school?

We share our plans for homeschooling and worldschooling, how we're supporting Daisy's dyslexia, what education might look like on the road, and how the kids are really feeling about everything.

We also discuss what happens if the house doesn't sell in time, whether our friends and family think we're completely mad, and why we're committed to seeing this journey through.

This podcast isn't about pretending we've got all the answers. It's about documenting the journey honestly, sharing the wins and setbacks, and hopefully helping other families who might be asking similar questions.

If you've got a question you'd like us to answer in a future Q&A episode, send us a message on Instagram at @beingwellfamily. Nothing is off limits.

And if you're a family who has moved abroad, travelled long term, embraced homeschooling or worldschooling, or chosen a different path in life, we'd love to hear from you. We're actively looking for families to feature on future episodes of the podcast.

If you enjoyed this episode, please follow, subscribe and leave a review wherever you're listening. It genuinely helps us reach more people and continue growing this community.

Thanks for being here and following along as we turn our lives upside down.

🌍 Family travel, worldschooling, homeschooling, relocation stories and conversations with families who have chosen a different path

Have you ever looked at your life and wondered...

"Is this it?"

On paper, life was good.

A family home in a great area.

Three amazing kids.

Successful careers (although Damien was recently made redundant).

A comfortable routine.

But underneath it all, we couldn't shake the feeling that there might be another way to live.

So we've decided to do something that most people think is completely mad.

We're selling our house.

Selling most of our belongings.

Taking our children out of school and nursery.

Buying a one way ticket.

And we're documenting every step of the journey.

In this first episode of the Being Well Family Podcast, we explain why we're making this decision, how Damien's redundancy became the catalyst for change, what we hope to gain from a year of slow travel, and why we're choosing action over spending the rest of our lives wondering "what if?"

We also share the reactions we've received from friends and family, including the comments that made us question whether we're making the biggest mistake of our lives.

This episode also lays out exactly what this podcast will become.

Over the coming months we'll be interviewing families who have chosen a different path. Families who have moved abroad, travelled full time, embraced worldschooling or homeschooling, started over somewhere new, or completely redesigned how they live.

We want to hear the real stories. Not the polished Instagram version, but the lessons, mistakes, wins, challenges and unexpected moments along the way.

If that's you, we'd love to hear from you.

And if you're a family who has ever wondered whether there's another way to live, we'd love to hear from you too.

Alongside our regular episodes, we'll also be hosting live Q&A sessions where we'll answer questions about our own journey and explore the questions many families ask when considering a big life change.

Thinking about travelling long term?

Considering homeschooling or worldschooling?

Wondering whether moving abroad could work for your family?

Send us your questions and we'll do our best to answer them honestly as we learn ourselves.

This podcast isn't about having all the answers.

It's about asking better questions.

What makes a good life?

Could there be another way to live?

And what happens when a family decides to find out for themselves?

If you've ever dreamed of doing something different, this episode is for you.

Follow along as we turn our lives upside down and discover what happens next.
