Episode #9: When Sarah's car skidded off the road in what could have been a tragic accident, it shook us to our core, reminding us of the unpredictable nature of life. Yet, amid the chaos of a devastating week in Southern California, we found solace during a rejuvenating trip to the serene landscapes of Colorado. We pour our hearts into sharing these personal stories and how we've begun embracing our roles as new empty nesters.
