About this episode

Louise and Ryan discuss their differing approaches to travel as parents, the impact of personal challenges, and the complexities of love languages and family planning.

This week we’re recording on the eve of our long-awaited trip - and let’s just Louise and Ryan approach holidays VERY differently... We chat honestly about how travelling as parents hits differently, the mental load of planning, and why even a dream getaway can come with nightmares (literally). Louise opens up about adjusting to life with a stoma bag and how it’s impacted confidence around things like swimwear and holidays, while Ryan shares what it’s been like supporting from the sidelines.  We also finally dive into love languages and how those differences can affect us. Add in our  Type A vs Type B approach and… yes, there are clashes. One thing we do agree on…
