Show Description:
They say experience is life’s great teacher, but what if you haven’t had the life experience to learn from yet? How will you know how to handle the struggles of loving each other when you are broke, when your child is sick, when someone you love dies, when one of you is thriving and the other is struggling? Kris and Charity have lived an extreme life as business owners, foster and biological parents, musicians, community activists, and true life partners. They have had many marriages within their 27 year marriage. This podcast tells the incredible story of their journey together and will give you hope that every new season has the capacity for new energy and more love.
