Jessyl and Alex PodcastSeason Two Wrap Up & What’s NextWrapping up our 12-part series exploring grief, travel, and transformation, we pause to reflect on the profound lessons that have emerged from our journey with loss and rebuilding. Listeners who have followed our path through continents, memories, and healing have witnessed not just our story, but perhaps glimpses of their own capacity for resilience.Alex shares how recounting these experiences has served as medicine, helping process grief that continues to ebb and flow. "Liam was a guide and still is to this day," he reflects, finding deeper meaning in his son's brief but impactful life. The fundamental...2025-07-2823 minJessyl and Alex PodcastThe Death of Our Son: Liam's Beautiful Life and Tragic EndHow do you tell the story of a child whose life defied medical impossibility yet ended too soon? In this deeply personal and emotional episode, we share the journey of our youngest son Liam—from his unexpected conception to his final heartbeat at just 18 months old.Born with a severe congenital heart condition that should have claimed his life within weeks, Liam somehow thrived without medical intervention, traveling across continents with our family. His extraordinary resilience allowed him to experience the world's beauty—from Dominican beaches to the Sahara Desert—all while his body quietly compensated for having...2025-07-222h 00Jessyl and Alex PodcastFrom Morocco to Cyprus: Navigating Family TravelThat small, seemingly insignificant decision to take a budget flight through London instead of flying direct to Cyprus? It cost us hundreds more than we planned and taught us a valuable lesson about family travel logistics. But that's the beauty of this journey we're on—the unexpected detours often bring the most profound realizations.When we finally arrived at our Cyprus villa, nicknamed "Serenity," it lived up to its name. After the whirlwind pace of Morocco, this spacious three-bedroom haven with its pool and mountain views became the perfect place to catch our breath. The kids explored fr...2025-07-071h 23Jessyl and Alex PodcastAdventures in the Sahara: A Family's Desert JourneyStep into the shifting sands of Morocco through the eyes of a family discovering its vibrant landscapes, ancient cultures, and most importantly—themselves. From the blue-washed streets of Chefchaoun, where street performers sing your name for small coins, to the majestic Atlas Mountains with their wild monkeys and Berber cave dwellings, this episode captures the full spectrum of Moroccan wonders.The heart of their journey unfolds in the Sahara Desert, where camel rides lead to picnics where bread is baked directly in the sand, and children race up and down towering dunes with sandboards as the sun se...2025-06-302h 20Jessyl and Alex PodcastFrom Portugal to Morocco: A Family's Journey Through Meaningful DestinationsMorocco called to us for years before we finally answered. When the opportunity arose to fly from Portugal to North Africa with our children, we knew it was time. What we didn't know was how significant this journey would become in our family's story, especially for our youngest son, Liam.Our adventure began with a four-day stopover in Lisbon, where we finally visited the mystical gardens and castles of Sintra. The winding staircases, underground tunnels, and ancient structures seemed to transport us to another time—children climbing stone walls, discovering hidden caves, and standing atop the Moorish Ca...2025-06-2342 minJessyl and Alex PodcastBeyond the Masks: How Communal Living Changed Our FamilySometimes the most profound transformations happen when we slow down and settle into community. After months of rapid travel through Italy's Via Francigena, our family landed in Portugal's Algarve region for what became a two-month immersion in communal living that would reshape our approach to family life.The adjustment wasn't without challenges. Our children, suddenly surrounded by friends who spoke their language, resisted leaving the property to explore. Rather than forcing our travel agenda, we learned to adapt—allowing them the social connections they craved while finding balance in our family rhythm. What emerged was a beautiful da...2025-06-1654 minJessyl and Alex PodcastWalking Beyond Comfort: The Camino de Santiago and Via FrancigenaWhat happens when you take your children beyond their comfort zones and witness them discover their own capacity for resilience?

Walking 96 miles in just six days, they faced physical exhaustion, torrential downpours, and emotional breakdowns. But within these challenges, they discovered something profound - that showing up authentically...2025-06-091h 28Jessyl and Alex PodcastFrom Naples to Capranica: Embracing Slow LivingHave you ever stumbled upon exactly what you needed—or what your children were longing for—at the most unexpected moment? That's precisely what happened when our family climbed the steep steps into the medieval fortress town of Capranica, Italy, and found ourselves in the middle of a Star Wars cosplay festival, just weeks after our children had reluctantly parted with their beloved Star Wars helmets.Capranica marked a significant transition in our family's journey. After months of fast-paced travel across Europe, this three-week stay at a tranquil hazelnut orchard gave us the breathing room to establish sust...2025-06-021h 02Jessyl and Alex PodcastMonaco's Millionaires: How Wealth Changed Our Family PerspectiveHave you ever found yourself saying "that's too expensive" while simultaneously dreaming of financial abundance? Our journey through Monaco revealed this exact contradiction in our own thinking. With 33% of Monaco residents being millionaires, the environment of extreme wealth forced us to confront our limiting beliefs about money and success.The true revelation came when we realized how our language around finances was shaping our family's reality. We'd been caught in the trap of scarcity thinking, focusing on what we couldn't afford rather than how we could create more abundance. This breakthrough shifted our entire approach - especially...2025-05-261h 28Jessyl and Alex PodcastFamily of Eight: From Portugal's Cliffs to Sicily's FlavorsWhat happens when a special needs child runs away in a foreign country?

In this raw and revealing episode, we pull back the curtain on our European adventures, sharing the moments that Instagram never shows – from the panic of searching for our daughter in Toulouse to the disappointment of arriving at a "perfect surf town" in Portugal only to find freezing co...2025-05-1957 minJessyl and Alex PodcastLost in Translation: Navigating Family TravelWhat happens when you uproot your life, sell everything, and decide to travel the world with five children? The gap between expectation and reality becomes your greatest teacher.In this raw and honest conversation, we dive into our first steps into global family travel after leaving the Dominican Republic in June 2024. Far from the curated Instagram version of nomadic family life, we share the beautiful chaos that unfolded - from our daughter Linavelle's sudden, intense fear of flying (picture a "wild animal trying to claw her way out of the airplane") to landing in a small French...2025-05-121h 31Jessyl and Alex PodcastLife After Leaving: Our Two-Year JourneyTwo years after our last episode, we're breaking the silence to share the unexpected twists and profound revelations from our journey abroad. What began as a strategic move to the Dominican Republic—seeking affordable living and family support as we welcomed our fifth child—evolved into something far more transformative than we ever anticipated.When we left Florida in May 2023, we had a clear vision: find a beautiful home near the beach, hire household help to free us from domestic responsibilities, and create space for both parents to fully bond with our newborn. The military-to-civilian transition had been...2025-05-051h 01
