What if the life you've built isn't the only life available to your family?

This week on Doing It All, we're joined by Elodie Ferchaud, co-founder of Boundless Life, a company helping families live, work, and learn around the world through global communities designed specifically for parents and children.

As parents, we're often reminded that we only get "18 summers" with our children before they leave the nest. It's a phrase that can feel equal parts inspiring and heartbreaking, a reminder that time is limited and that the years we're living right now matter. Elodie challenges us to think about how we want to spend those summers and whether there are different ways to design a life that prioritizes connection, adventure, and presence.

We talk about Elodie's journey from entrepreneur to co-founder of a global movement, what it's really like to relocate internationally with children, and how travel can transform the way families learn, grow, and experience the world together.

In this episode, we discuss:

✈️ How motherhood and her childhood inspired Elodie to rethink traditional family life

🌎 The story behind Boundless Life and building a global community for families

🏡 Balancing adventure, routine, and parenting while living internationally

📚 Place-based learning, global education, and what children gain from experiencing the world firsthand

🤝 How kids build friendships and community across countries and cultures

❤️ Lessons global living has taught Elodie about parenting, ambition, and being present

Plus, we end with a fun round of Pack Your Bags, where Elodie shares her favorite family destinations, biggest travel parenting challenges, must-have travel essentials, and advice for families dreaming about life abroad. Whether you're ready to move overseas tomorrow or simply looking for inspiration to live more intentionally, this conversation will challenge the way you think about family, education, and what it means to truly do it all.

Who were you before Motherhood?

And where did she go?

This week on Doing It All, we're getting painfully honest (what else is new?!) about the identity shifts that happen after motherhood—the confidence, hobbies, spontaneity, style, routines, and personality traits that are now buried under the hefty load of managing 47 open mental tabs.

We're talking about:

- Identity loss

- Grieving an era while loving this one

- Confidence, style and body changes

- Reclaiming our time, our hobbies and our joy

A listener writes in with a confession we're sure every Mom has also said to themselves. Plus, Maya shares her new screen time philosophy and why she's releasing herself from parenting perfectionism. We also pay homage to the versions of ourselves who stayed in a salon and used to leave the house with only a lip gloss and a dream!

This episode is funny, vulnerable, validating, and for every woman who has ever looked in the mirror and thought:

“Wait… where did I go?”The goal isn’t becoming who we were before kids.
It’s making room for who we are now — while still letting the old version of ourselves come dance in the kitchen sometimes.

This week on Doing It All, we sit down with Ana-Maria Jaramillo—bilingual speech-language pathologist, founder of Voz Institute, and owner of beloved and viral taco spot La Tejana DC—for one of our realest conversations yet!

We talk about everything from identity, entrepreneurship, building businesses… to fertility issues and challenges in relationships after having a baby.

Ana-Maria opens up about her journey into motherhood, navigating her son’s early health challenges, surviving the exhaustion of a non-sleeping baby, and learning to release the pressure of perfection while managing multiple businesses and a family.

We also get into:

• Allowing yourself to feel angry about your pregnancy, birth, or postpartum experience

• The emotional load mothers carry behind the scenes

• Hiring your weaknesses instead of trying to excel at everything

• Building support systems that actually support you

• What helps her to “do it all” in motherhood

• And of course… the art of the perfect breakfast taco!

This episode is honest, layered, funny, validating, and deeply human—especially for anyone trying to hold onto themselves while caring for everyone else.
