This is such an important listen - so many of us don’t/won’t have a traditional nuclear family, and Refamulating makes it less lonely! Thoughtfully curated and told, these stories are building a new definition of family and how we make it.
Can’t wait for the next season! This podcast was engaging and informative. I felt seen and I looked forward to the topics on each episode. It’s well done and I can’t wait to see what’s next.
I absolutely love this show and feel anyone and everyone would benefit from listening. It’s an instant empathy boost filled with good advice, thoughtful conversations and deep wisdom. Whatever your relationship with your family is, this will give you new ways to consider it and expand. 🤍
Always insightful, I want to call out season 2, episode 15 as amazing. Truly one of the most thoughtful examinations of foster care, biological parents, and the children involved. Thank you!
Such an important and deeply compelling podcast! Each story is told with such empathy and nuance, and each episode is masterfully produced. I’ve shared this podcast with just about everyone I know!

With each episode, listeners are treated to personal narratives that emphasize the rich tapestry of modern family life, showcasing that there is no 'one size fits all' approach to family dynamics in today's society.
