About this episode
Ericka interviews Aimée and Edward Sanchez about their life as creative partners and parents, focusing on intentional living and emotional awareness in family dynamics.
In this episode of Curiously, Ericka sits with Aimée and Edward Sanchez for the podcast’s first-ever couples interview, exploring their shared life as artists, parents, and partners navigating creativity, homeschooling, and intentional living. Together, they reflect on what it looks like to build a family rhythm outside of cultural comparison, choosing instead to shape their lives around presence, curiosity, and a deep commitment to raising emotionally aware children. Aimée shares about her work as an illustrator and her instinct toward a slower, more grounded way of living, while Edward speaks to his practice as a creative director and the ways their different creative processes both challenge and strengthen their work together. Along the way, they also reflect on parenting through openness and vulnerability, the role of nature, surfing, and simple rituals like candlelit dinners in anchoring their daily life, and what it means to stay present in the midst of a chaotic world.
