Kristine is back home after traveling up north to visit her Grandfather. Who happens to be currently battling dementia illness. On this episode she shares her emotional story of seeing her Grandparents and the story of their love. And how its never too late to find your true love in life. Cherish it, because you just never know. Then we are joined by Turner Grant. A Washington DC architect, widowed father of twin boys, former candidate for Congress, and author of "To Venus and Back, One Man's Quest to Rediscover Love" published in 2023. It chronicles his quest to find life and love again at age 51 after the suicide of his wife of 20 years. "To Venus and Back, One Man's Quest to Rediscover Love" is a memoir about dating, relationships, sex, and looking to find love again when Turner Grant—a Harvard-educated architect in Washington DC, onetime congressional candidate, and father of twin boys—never expected to be doing any such thing. Adventurous, intimate, revealing, voyeuristic, surprising, and funny like most dating memoirs, the book stands apart because of its heartbreakingly tragic back-story (the suicide of his wife of 20 years). Turner's journey to Venus brought him into the lives of women whose views, expectations, and norms were so incredibly different and divergent from his own—often bizarre at times—that he often questioned how it could be. At other times, connections were made that were so amazing and intense, he was transported away from his “normal” life and world. Extensive use of actual emails and texts give the story an unfiltered and voyeuristic narrative. https://tovenusandback.com/ https://www.facebook.com/turner.grant.73 https://www.tiktok.com/@theturnergrant?lang=en https://twitter.com/TheTurnerGrant ***** The Kris and Kristine Show ***** http://www.krisandkristineshow.com https://www.kristinesmithdesigns.com K2 RADIO: https://live365.com/station/K2-RADIO-a04551 Email: krisandkristinepodcast@gmail.com Voice Mail: https://www.speakpipe.com/KrisandKristineShow Twitter: https://twitter.com/k2showsandiego Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thek2showsandiego/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/k2showsandiego Patreon: www.patreon.com/thekrisandkristineshow
