390 — Can You Really Plan for Family?
Drs. May and Tim explore the evolution of family ties—from tight-knit, generational living to the modern reality of families spread across states or countries. They talk about their own experience of moving for work, kids leaving home, and how “family planning” often means adjusting expectations as life unfolds. The episode blends history, humor, and reflection on what it means to belong—and how to stay grounded even when family isn’t nearby.

Show Notes
In this BS Free MD “Truth Bomb” rerun, Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh dive into the messy realities of family planning—and not the kind you’re thinking of. They reflect on seasons of life, moving away from family roots, raising kids without nearby relatives, and how family dynamics shift as generations relocate. Tim shares powerful immigrant stories about communities that once moved together as a unit, contrasting that with today’s fragmented approach to family and place. Together, they wrestle with whether staying close to family builds stronger bonds—or if leaving is the best way to grow.
Their takeaway? Life happens, plans change, and adaptability is key when it comes to family, home, and identity.
