In this inspiring episode, Heather Solomon sits down with her dear friend Shannon Wenzel to explore a journey of grit, grace, and relentless growth. Shannon shares her incredible journey of creating a healthy marriage and nurturing home, despite having no roadmap or example to follow. Growing up without a clear picture of a loving household, Shannon decided to courageously build the life she always wanted.

Listen in as Shannon reveals how she navigated the challenges of marriage without a strong example and balanced raising five children while her husband worked their farm. Discover Shannon's transformative realization that marriage is about rising and falling together, and the importance of covering each other's weaknesses instead of criticizing them. Heather and Shannon discuss the impact of past traumas, the importance of therapy, and how these elements have helped her grow into a role model for her family.

Join the conversation about letting go of perfection, finding support, and the significance of expressing gratitude in relationships. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of life's roller coasters and the power of intentionally choosing happiness. Tune in for laughter, wisdom, and practical insights on building a life filled with love and purpose.
