Never The Empty Nest

By: Vanessa Garcia Nicole Garcia Jackie Rivases
  • Summary

  • This is a podcast about family, led by two sisters and their mom. An experiment in generational nesting which is, in essence, the ways in which family holds together throughout the lives of its members, their joys, their hardships, their care, their living, breathing roots, and legacies in the making. It’s never too early or too late to add a twig to the nest and roost!

  • NTEN - s5 FINALE, ep. 9-10 "Hashing it Out"
    Mar 25 2024

    Life doesn’t always go as planned, and neither do episodes. Sometimes though, it’s even better. We end season 5 with a kind of hash brown platter. We think it’s crispy and yummy and reinvigorating — hope you do too! Our nest is filled with love, from our nest to yours.

  • NTEN - s5, ep. 8 "Andrea Gollin - Taking Care of Dad"
    Mar 4 2024

    When her dad had a health scare, Andrea moved in with him. Her friends told her she was crazy, that she was wasting her life, even some of her family members thought she’d lost it, but Andrea has another point of view. These days with her dad have their ups and downs, some are magical, some much grittier and grumpier than others, but, overall, it just feels “right,” and enlightening. Andrea’s also asking herself whether we don’t have it all wrong when it comes to how we care for the elderly in our society. We explore the ins and outs of what it means to go back to the nest to care of papa bird.
