We also talk about what we value in each other; What we learned from past relationships before we found each other; How trust and fidelity works for us; And some bits about our nomadic lifestyle. I hope you are encouraged by what we share. 

This is the season finale for Season 1. The new season will begin in 4 weeks. I&#39;ll be getting the last writing on my book done and off to a proofreader and looking for a cover designer during these weeks away from the podcast.
