In this episode, we talk to Kamden Ross and Beau Cervantes about the tight bond that originally formed through the game of basketball. However, it’s become so much more than that.  Growing up together, on and off the court, you’ll get to hear about the loyalty, unspoken trust, and mutual respect that has made this friendship last through the years.

In this episode, we dive into a heartfelt conversation between two friends—Kristen and Laura—who developed and maintain friendship in different seasons of life. These two friends remind us that friendship doesn’t require matching life circumstances. In fact, it’s often the differences that add richness and depth. You are invited to take what you hear today and let it challenge you: seek out someone in a different season of life, be curious, be intentional—and see how that connection can bring unexpected encouragement and value into your world.
