Life at Sea: Raising a Family on a Sailboat with Jenn & Mornee Sherry

In this episode of the Roamaroo Podcast, we sit down with Jenn and Mornee Sherry to talk about what it’s really like to raise a family on a sailboat in the Caribbean. We get into the realities behind the dream, from tight quarters and constant movement to the unexpected freedom that comes with life at sea. They share how this lifestyle has shaped their kids, what day-to-day life actually looks like, and the tradeoffs most people don’t consider when imagining a life like this. We also talk about what pushed them to make the leap, what they’ve learned along the way, and how redefining “home” has changed their family in ways they never expected.  instagram.com/@sv_liquid_sunshine [https://www./] Subscribe to the Roamaroo Podcast!

They Created The #1 Kids Show On Youtube: Elizabeth Higgins-Clark & Lauren Pomerantz

In this episode of the Roamaroo Podcast, we sit down with two of the most creative people we know, Elizabeth Higgins-Clark and Lauren Pomerantz. Lauren is an Emmy Award–winning writer who has worked on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Saturday Night Live, and Elizabeth is a writer, actress, and the granddaughter of the legendary Mary Higgins Clark. Together, they created Wooby and Fotty, now the #1 kids show on YouTube, a musical puppet series about two security blankets helping little kids navigate big feelings. We talk about what it takes to build a creative show from scratch, what it’s like to work together as a married couple, and how they manage to travel with twins along for the ride. https://youtube.com/woobyandfotty [https://youtube.com/@woobyandfotty?feature=shared] Subscribe to the Roamaroo Podcast!

Parenting in Italy vs. the U.S. And Why Coming Home Felt So Hard

In this episode of the Roamaroo Podcast, we unpack what it really felt like to come back to the United States after months in Italy, and why the hardest part wasn’t leaving, but returning. This conversation digs deep into the differences between parenting in Italy versus parenting in the United States. We discuss how place shapes identity, what it means to raise kids in a system versus in a culture, and how Italy impacted our parenting style. We share how our experience with Boundless Life challenged our assumptions about education and daily life and we ask a bigger question: is Italy a better fit for our family? 400 Euro Off Boundless Life: https://refer.boundless.life/COLSTO79 [https://refer.boundless.life/COLSTO79] Subscribe to the Roamaroo Podcast!

Worldschooling in Italy: Our Boundless Life Journey

In this episode of The Roamaroo Podcast, Scott and Collette explore what worldschooling really looks like on the ground in Italy with Boundless Life, beyond the highlight reel and into daily life. We talk about why we chose Italy, how the Boundless Life program blends structure with curiosity, and what it feels like to watch children learn through culture, community, and real-world experience rather than worksheets alone. This conversation dives into the emotional side of alternative education too: the questions parents wrestle with, the courage it takes to step off the traditional path, and how slowing down can regulate both kids and adults. It’s not about rejecting school as we know it, but expanding the definition of education, and trusting that when children feel safe, connected, and inspired, learning happens everywhere. 400 Euro Off Boundless Life: https://refer.boundless.life/COLSTO79 [https://refer.boundless.life/COLSTO79] Book a babysitter in Europe with Tripsitta: https://www.tripsitta.com/partners/roamaroo [https://www.tripsitta.com/partners/roamaroo] Subscribe to the Roamaroo Podcast!

The Packing Episode - How Overpacking Makes Everything Harder

In this episode, we explore packing light with kids and why it has reshaped the way our family travels. We return to a moment in Cinque Terre, Italy, when a rogue wave drenched us and every perfectly packed item we carried, a reminder that preparation can only take you so far. The rest requires adaptability. We explain why we are firmly #TeamCarryOn, even with children, and why overpacking is often anxiety disguised as organization. More belongings do not make travel smoother. They increase cognitive load, amplify stress, and quietly pull us out of the present moment. We also reflect on how packing less gives children agency, teaching them responsibility and confidence through choice. Ultimately, this episode reframes packing as a practice in trust. Packing light is not about deprivation. It is about freedom. It is about letting go of control and making room for presence, resilience, and the kind of travel that teaches us who we are.
