In this episode of The WHY Matters Podcast, Will and I open up about the stories behind our tattoos and the meaning they hold for us. What might look like simple body art is actually a reflection of family, love, travel, and identity. From my first strawberry tattoo at 17 to Will’s dolphins for our kids, and the travel-inspired sleeve I’ve been building along the way, each one carries a piece of our journey.
For us, tattoos aren’t just decoration, they’re a living journal of who we are, where we’ve been, and what matters most.
