What happens when married couples choose freedom over family?

In this episode of Married AF, Matthew and Monica Powers unpack the rising trend of the DINK lifestyle, "Dual Income, No Kids" where couples opt out of parenthood in pursuit of adventure, financial freedom, and personal growth. Inspired by a viral Business Insider article, we dive into the story of a Canadian couple who quit their jobs to travel the world child-free and explore why more millennial and Gen Z marriages are following suit.

But is this lifestyle as fulfilling as it seems? Or does it come with hidden costs?

This isn’t just about plane tickets and bucket lists. We tackle the marriage challenges and life lessons behind the no-kids movement from skyrocketing child-rearing costs to emotional intimacy, social stigma, long-term legacy, and even spirituality. We contrast short-term freedom with long-term purpose, asking the deeper questions:
🌀 What kind of love leaves a legacy?
🌀 What happens when the fun fades and the silence sets in?

You’ll hear:

  • Real talk about money for couples and how dual income affects marriage dynamics
  • Cultural shifts and spiritual considerations shaping the modern view of family
  • Research on marital satisfaction, loneliness, and regrets
  • Engaging questions about your future, your marriage, and your “why”

Whether you're child-free by choice, considering delayed parenthood, or knee-deep in diapers, this genuine conversationinvites you to reflect on what truly matters in a happy marriage.

⚠️ Spoiler: No one gets to the end of life wishing they had just traveled more.

This episode blends relationship coaching, honesty, faith, and a bit of humor, to help couples navigate real decisions with clarity and compassion.
