The Benefits of Long Term Family Travel

Season 1 · Episode 1

Thursday, October 10, 2019 • Duration 38:34

Today we have the pleasure of speaking with Susan Whitehead from Wanderlust Families all about growing up in a bicultural home, selling it all to trade her "normal" American life for long-term travel with her family and how those adventures have changed her kids' lives for the better.

Here are some important takeaways from our conversation:
Growing up in a bicultural family (Costa Rican and American) with parents who valued travel, traveling was Susan's normal.

-Her parents allowed her to travel whenever the opportunity arose, and the budget allowed because they knew it would be a good experience.

-With her own children, Susan and her husband made travel an intentional priority.

-Even though money was tight, they decided to sell everything a move their family to Costa Rica for six months. Before taking the leap, they considered:

Cost
Ability to get home
Goals for their family (ie they wanted their kids to improve their Spanish and learn about their Grandmother's culture)

Travels have taught Susan's children:

To be skeptical of what they see in the news and draw their own conclusions about people.
To overcome obstacles
Confidence
Being comfortable being uncomfortable
Sparked interest in other areas of the world

How to Talk with White Kids About Race and Racism

Season 3 · Episode 1

Wednesday, September 21, 2022 • Duration 28:40

How do we talk about race with kids? For white parents raised in the "color-blind" generation, it can feel confusing and even overwhelming to talk with your kids about race because they are conversations you likely never had yourself. Yet, talking about race is something we need to do, especially with our kids. In this interview, Rebekah Gienapp talks about how to have conversations about race with white kids. She offers some great tips on why these conversations, and our role in anti-racism work, differ between people of color and white people. She also gives great advice on how white people can be co-conspirators or allies in anti-racism work without letting ignorance get in the way. This is essential reading/listening for anyone who wants to help create a more racially inclusive world for their children.
