About Refamulating
Refamulating is a podcast that celebrates different ways to make a family. A generation ago, most Americans were guided by the idea of the nuclear family: a mom, a dad, two kids, and a derpy dog. Many still have a family like this, and that’s great! But the numbers show it doesn't represent the majority of American households. In fact, there is no one-size-fits-all for what a family should look like. We’re collectively reformulating our understanding of what makes a family in today’s world. We call this refamulating, and this show invites us to understand it one story at a time. On each episode of Refamulating, host Julia Winston delivers emotionally honest stories of real people with nuanced experiences that census data could never tell us. Think queer parents, egg and sperm donors, surrogates, blended families, child-free folks, tales of communal living, and much more.

[…] I get to sing to them at night when I'm there and help them go to bed. I get to eat dinner with them and watch them go and bathe them during this phase of their lives and watch them go from like babies to toddlers. And I'm going to get to watch them grow up and I'm going to get to be here for them whenever and however they want me to be. I get to be a source of love in their lives. And I'm also not responsible for them. They have very capable, fantastic parents who I just get to love and support them too. And what they told me when we started all of this was like, you can never have too much love in a child's life. […]
