108: Recapping the Last 18 Months of Our Lives with Stef Bare

108: Recapping the Last 18 Months of Our Lives with Stef Bare

I'm welcoming back my wife, Stef, for an overdue catch-up on the trials and triumphs we've faced over the last 18 months.


From the birth of our son, Niko, adjusting to life with two young children, surviving multiple moves including a brief stint in Nashville, and dealing with getting hit by a car back in December, we share how these experiences have reshaped our perspectives on family, work, and faith.


We also discuss the importance of in-person community building, parenting challenges, and our goals for 2025 and the future, including exciting plans for Bare Ranch.
