Why can’t we put our passions at the forefront FOR our family’s future? Or can we? Sometimes balance is hard and the struggles should be discussed!
Knowing what you know now about life, what advice would you give your 18-year-old self? Carla & Kristin reflect on pieces of their life and how it lead them to where they are today. The good, the bad, and the “sh!tty”…literally.
