"On this episode, we recount Morgan’s frightening encounter with dengue fever in Guatemala and the unexpected blessings it brought to our marriage. From the severe symptoms and a surprising lack of mosquito bites to a heartfelt moment of repentance and reconnection, we share our journey through illness and recovery. We even throw in a fun discussion about a hypothetical futuristic chip that could revolutionize medical diagnoses and improve marital empathy.

Beyond personal trials, our Guatemalan adventure led us to tackle the serious issue of malnutrition among children through a regenerative agriculture project. Visiting the historic city of Antigua and remote rural areas, we teamed up with organizations like Missioteca and Grace Ministries to introduce sustainable farming practices. Learn about our mission to transform local agriculture, improve children's health, and the uphill battle smallholder farmers face against large corporations.

Lastly, we dive into the inspiring world of Amado, a passionate agricultural expert, whose knowledge on cover crops and seed collection left a lasting impression on us. We also share a practical tip for chicken owners stemming from a personal mouse infestation mishap, and reflect on our gardening journeys—the trials with pests and the triumphs with our hydrangeas and lemon balm. Join us as we brainstorm ways to celebrate upcoming celestial events, offering a mix of heartfelt stories, practical advice, and inspirational encounters."
