Northern Exposure: Exploring Communal Living with Little Mountain Cohousing residents Jo and Kim

  • Summary

  • Today we’re taking our podcast up north to Vancouver, British Columbia in CANADA! 

    We’ve all heard the saying “it takes a village to raise a child” But what if you LIVED in an intentional community that mimicked this village mindset?  I got in touch with Jo and Kim, both moms from Little Mountain Cohousing.  Jo and Kim are both moms who sought out cohousing early on in their momming journey for the support and familial community offered by cohousing. You will  hear about their living setup centered around common meals, communal spaces that include an outdoor courtyard, music rooms, car-sharing and a school bus for kids AND…built in babysitting and after school care!  Both Kim and Jo also work outside of the house, and they will give us a glimpse of the Canadian parental leave system that will truly make you rethink how we possibly are OK with the paltry system we have in place here in the United States.
