š„ NEW EPISODE: 8 Kids, 1 Bus, No Fear
My guests today on nostr:nprofile1qqsdcz7puq6jv9ahh58h26zxl5gwl7xks548ck48uyfmsx0kzlfl3rcfrx0pj are JD & Britney, the couple behind āAmerican Family Road Trip,ā a faith-led family of ten whoāve been living full-time on the road since 2018. After trading their 7,000-square-foot home for a self-renovated bus, theyāve embraced a life of radical simplicity, homeschooling, and Bitcoin. Along the way, theyāve built a community of over 670K followers inspired by their values-first approach to parenting and freedom.
We discussed:
ā¢ Why they left behind suburban comfort to invest in faith, family, and freedom
ā¢ Road schooling, resilience, and raising kids without smartphones
ā¢ How Bitcoin fits their values of sovereignty, legacy, and intentional living
ā¢ JDās health crisis, rediscovering purpose, and building SatSaver for self-custody
ā¢ The importance of giving kids toolsānot baggageāfor the future

Enjoy š¤ā”š¤ I'll give it a listen as well
Will share my thoughts after I am done with the whole thing but from what I am hearing so far? You will love it š
I really enjoyed the topicāsuch a cool guests šš Brave and smart to embrace this lifestyle. The perfect example of how material things, often pushed by societal norms (like a huge house or excessive possessions), can actually hold us back rather than bring happiness. They clearly understood that and have chosen to live their lives instead of being slaves to the system š¤ā”š¤ Some of the lines that stood out to me: 'The real currency of life is relationships' + their perspective on giving kids tools instead of baggageāfocusing on building character and values over superficial achievements. Loooove it!!! All in all, a fantastic episode. Congrats nostr:nprofile1qqsx5dvc2g3cmjgz4mgelwlk5p2ln2ljrsw23y2ar38z0agd7tefpkgpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqzyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9cmd8cc.

You can say that again Miss Waterfall! It was indeed a fantastic episode and character building + values over superficial checkbox achievements really hit home for me as that was the world I grew up in to a certain extent. The other bit that stood out for me was the choice of freedom vs security; each of these requires a different set of beliefs and behaviours. I even appreciated Efratās personal testimony of what living in a security conscious environment is like. That really hit home for me especially as I pondered on the fact that for those in Israel right now, they didnāt choose those circumstances but thatās their current reality. The hoaxvid-19 Psyop also promised security and safety but robbed folks of their freedom.
100% š§” Indeed, actually real security isnāt given but built by those who truly value freedom
Let me know what you thought!
