Bigger on The Inside: Reflections on Family Roadtripping Across the USA (RV road trip, full-time RV, traveling with kids, wanderlust, nomadic family, USA travel, RV life, roadschool)

We live in an age of division, sliced and diced into different categories and demographics. As we left for an 18-month cross-country trip, we had a hunch that as we got to know different places along the way, we would find conversations and connections revealing that we’re more alike than different. In this podcast we explore the tribes we create, the things that shape our worldview, some real-world challenges, and random things we’ve experienced while RV road-tripping with young kids. We're all about full-time RV life, exploring new cultures, breaking down our pre-concieved ideas, homeschooling, roadtripping, and learning together. <br/><br/><a href="https://geissfamily.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast">geissfamily.substack.com</a>

Episode 3: Building Community on the Road

Our time on the road clarified what we already knew- people aren’t meant to live alone. But when you’re on an extended road trip, that looks different. So, we had a plan for how to connect with community while traveling… but all community centers on the willingness to be vulnerable and take a risk, which we found in different ways throughout our trip.Just like a house, community doesn’t just happen… it is intentionally built.

Episode 2: Ready or Not, Take the Leap

As we prepared to hit the road, there were a million reasons NOT to take an 18-month cross-country road trip…. and what seemed like a million steps to take to make it actually happen. As with anything big, you’ll never be totally ready…. do it anyway.Enjoy the episode! This is a public episode.

Episode 1: Live from The Rowhouse Forum

It felt like a good idea to have our first episode be the full talk that we gave at The Rowhouse Forum in August of 2024. This episode is longer than the rest will be, but worth the listen. Enjoy!
