This week on the podcast we are excited to be catching up with our good friends Jake and Michelle (and Henley and Jagger) from Retired Toddlers.

We first interviewed Jake and Michelle on the podcast in the spring of 2017 while we were in Bali and they were in Cambodia. Since then we’ve kept in touch and so we were excited to get to spend some time in person together and record a new conversation!

We catch up with Jake and Michelle on their travels over the past two years, learn more about their decision-making process around parenting and traveling, and much more!

At the end, we are joined by two extra special guests for a small bonus interview!

Enjoy the episode!
