Feeling fragile and searching for an anchor, husband and wife, Brian and Liz, are back in England, trying to find a short-term rental in Bath.
They tackle the scary financial reality of their married nomadic life and why they believe spending savings on making memories with their young adult kids is worth every penny.
This is (once again) a deeply vulnerable episode, where Liz shares how a hurtful YouTube comment landed on the very day she was driving to see her brother for the first time since their dad’s funeral, and in turn, sparks a crucial conversation about the real-world impact of our words online.
We hope you enjoy this raw, real, and uplifting look at the cost of living without a fixed address and where to find home when you need it most. We also give you our individual and private husband and wife diaries at the end of the podcast.
Thank you, as always, for being here with us. You are what makes this podcast so special.
My heart beats with yours.
Kia Kaha.
Liz and Brian x

This week, husband and wife, Brian and Liz, share their recent married life podcast shenanigans. Recently returned from their two-month summer in Greece, they have been in their beloved birthplace, Blighty, for 48 hours and have somehow managed to get ripped off. Twice.
Not that Liz is bitter. No. As she reminds Brian many times, marriage isn’t just about love and laughter and making podcasts about pigeons. It’s about carrying the weight together.
Honest…
Thank you, as always, for being here with us. You are what makes this podcast so special.
Yours, ripped off but still together and laughing,
Liz and Brian. Husband and wife. x

This year, after a huge family loss, we took our young adult kids and spent the summer in Greece. Here’s how it went.
Our summer in Greece has come to an end, and we don’t want to leave.
Greece has done wonders for our family, our marriage, my healing, Sonny’s income, and our waistline. All have grown.
Here’s what we have loved, what we’ll miss and what we are nervous about facing in England.
Thank you so very much for being here with us.
Yours, forever grateful
Liz and Brian, husband and wife. x

What would you do with a million dollars?
Brian would buy a car. Liz would build a writing retreat. Welcome to marriage.
In this episode, Brian and I chat about money, marriage tiffs, and why giving yourself time — real, uninterrupted, guilt-free time — can change everything.
We talk about our last precious days in Greece (and why we never want this spell to end), the joy of being unapologetically self-indulgent, supporting adult kids while still carving out a life of your own, and what “being time-rich” really means.

We thought this week’s “outside the comfort zone” podcast episode would be about memory and how you perceive yourself, but it turned out to be so much more than that.
In this week’s podcast by the sea, you can expect to hear how Liz struggles with her son confessing to wanting to be a millionaire, how the couple are navigating life as they spend 24 hours a day together with a family of four in an apartment in Greece, and why we struggle to see ourselves as others do.
Enjoy, our lovely friends.

“It’s been a year, get on with it”.
If you are struggling with any kind of loss and want to feel supported and loved, this conversation is for you.
Not only will it help you, but you will see that you are normal, and, most importantly, not alone.
*This episode is part of our husband-and-wife healing conversations series. These podcast episodes are recorded outside. We are husband and wife, Liz and Brian, and we are currently staying on the Greek island of Paros with our two young adult kids as part of our year-long trip away from New Zealand.
The episode starts with us walking to a busy cafe. We invite you to come along with us and have a coffee and a chat. I think you need to hear this.
Kia kaha (stay strong), my brave friend. Liz and Brian x
