We were wrong about America

We were wrong about America

There are a few myths and misconceptions about America that we have found to be not true, and this week, we wanted to share our experiences with you.

Brian and Liz, husband and wife, are in Colorado, USA.

Join them today as they take you on a stroll through their (very American) neighbourhood to spill the beans on:

Being stuck out in the middle of nowhere with a stranger.

A USA myth that turns out to be true, (and one we wish we had)

Liz’s shock reaction after the release of her new book

The biggest American myth of all, and one that rocked these two (quite adventurous and brave) British New Zealanders.

This will be the last podcast episode of 2025.

May we take this chance to say how much we love and appreciate you, how your support means so very much to us and how we hope you will continue to join us in 2026.

Happy New Year, lovely people,

with all love and gentleness always,

Kia Kaha

Liz and Brian xx

Love, loss and the Heartbreaking Reality of Grief

Love, loss and the Heartbreaking Reality of Grief

This is one of those rare conversations between a husband and wife that feels too private and vulnerable to share publicly. 

But share we will

because I know that there is someone out there who needs to hear these words. And so I dedicate this podcast episode to you. 


Today, Brian interviews Liz about her newly released book: You Won’t Just. Cry When They Die: Love, loss and the heartbreaking reality of grief.

My heart beats with yours. Always

Kia Kaha

Let it Go: Releasing Anger, Money Pits + the Need to Be Perfect . Marriage Diaries

Sometimes you 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 for a stroll through the English countryside and share three tough decisions they’ve made on their nomadic year of travel, how the UK is giving them 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, this 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. You are what makes this podcast so special.

Kia Kaha, beautiful you

Liz and Brian x
